It would be nice if you could mention that an online petition was started regarding a 335i/135 LSD and almost 200 335i/135i owners have expressed their wish to have a LSD available from BMW Performance in just 10 days.
http://www.petitiononline.com/lsd335i/petition.html Thanks !

I just saw this thread but I'd like to give my inputs:
-Performance Rotors for the 335i. -Performance Brakes for the 335i.

The xi was designed to handle with certain factors in mind that the performance suspension would not coexist with. The video will give Eric's exact answer, but that is what I recall.

Eric shared my opinions in that the stock brakes are powerful, but we are both unsure of how they hold up in track usage. ...You can always try retrofitting M3 brakes.

But I agree, I had spoken with one of the BMW Performance guys at Tischer and he confirmed this, also recommended against performance brakes since they did not show the same potency as stock 335 brakes. I always wondered about that. Makes me doubt those stock 328 brakes

+1, although I am very content with my Quaife. At a minimum this portends well for future non-M BMW purchases.

So they are "discussing" the LSD 4 years after the 335i launched. Not very good news...but at least they think about it

Maybe a site moderator is kind enough to make the LSD petition thread sticky for a few weeks/months, so we can raise enough signatures to help the "business case" Eric was talking about Thanks a lot for bringing it up in the interview ! Can't wait for the other videos !
