Out of all the features on this car and THAT'S what he doesn't know, hahaha.

Doesn't matter though...that car is

what is with the back of the vert's headrest? what the hell is that large "thing" on the back? rear airbag or something?

Seatbelt mount, no B pillar on vert.

Hey it looks just like my 335 convertible- except for the engine difference.
Beautiful car- enjoy it!

korr · 10-06-2012, 10:28 AM

damn nice car .... i got my jeep at that dealer too

bjf66 · 10-07-2012, 07:22 AM

I hope you enjoy the car! Do you have any mods in mind? (Golf tee would make the exhaust louder, lol)

gds52 · 10-07-2012, 08:17 AM

Warning: Don't kiss those black anodized exhaust pipes...they r hot!!! Lol

Very nice car...great interior combo... Congrats...

John 070 · 10-07-2012, 08:28 AM

Congrats! I really like the idea of the 335is because of the N54. You'll never be able to get a twin turbo on a base 3, just costs way too much with its 4 CATS.

I do feel sad with clutches going away, though, you cannot even buy a 2013 Ferrari with a clutch anymore. Look at all the Porsches, trying to find a clutch on a used Porsche is like trying to find a BMW with a manual, only 10X harder....sad.....

That convertible must be great for getting the baby in the back - not as easy on my coupe

Completely off-topic.

diamondsbylauren · 10-07-2012, 04:53 PM

I'm totally with you on the 3 pedal cars. My 135 was a stick and the dealer loved that fact. I thought I was going to test drive a 6pd- it was only when I got there I saw it was the 7spd dual clutch.

I was prepared not to love it- I've tried it in the M3- and was totally underwhelmed.
In this car, it works.
Likely after 3 years 'll be itching for that third pedal, but for now, I don't miss it.
I truly hope car makers like Porsche never discontinue the clutch.

Yes- much easier operating the baby seat with top down- but you also can't use the third strap to tether the seat from behind in the vert......

Looks great, nice car! I love the black with coral red int!

nice car

diamondsbylauren · 10-08-2012, 06:49 PM

I don;t think I'll be doing any Mods....it's leased.
Plus- I know I can go faster- but the car is not leaving me wanting.
With my 135, I never liked the tires, and always hated the CDV- never got around to changing either...

Ok maybe it could be a little louder- what's the golf tee trick?

Photo overload.....

WildBee659 · 10-08-2012, 07:11 PM

Nice ride!!! The thumb knob is nice when the top is down on cool days. Enjoy.
