I don't think it's anybodies business how much he has spent.
The M3 is the pinnacle of the 3 series range. It is superior in terms of performance, handling and looks. Comparing a diesel to one is apples and oranges. If it is only straight line speed you are after then yes, the 335d is fast; as is Focus ST or a Astra VXR but they aren't anything comparable to an M3. If fuel consumption and running costs concern you then an E92 M3 or even a F82 M4 shouldn't be on your list. The M4 may be more efficient but I doubt you will get the figures they claim. |

I think most people who do a performance upgrade consider the impact on economy. There's not many people who would be happy bringing a car down to say 5mpgs for maybe 600HP. No matter who you are running costs are always a consideration. |

335d and m3 are completely different cars. You can't compare them and if you attempt it then then you don't really want an m3. As Sam said you don't buy an m3 to worry about mpg, costs etc. you buy because you want an m3 with a v8 and accept that it will be expensive! Would love an m4, and good luck achieving you goal for one.

man if you wouldnt put all those money in those uneccessary upgrades such as recaro, you could buy a supercharger kit for 4.500 pounds such as this one out of ebay and still discounted:

Why are you still after the OP? Leave him be buddy he has clearly achieved what he set out for and is happy as are the rest of us on here. Please start modding so we can all start asking you why haven't you done certain other upgrades lol. |
