the 4 cyl F30 officially costs about $800 less than my 335i coupe did in 2007. Not even with navi, the car is over 45k...ouch.
I was just curious, what if I just bought a 4 cyl, and use it as a daily driver, keep the options down, maybe I get out at 36-38k--wishful thinking! |

Welcome to the trend. It seems all the mfr's are cost cutting the crap out of their vehicles, and charging same/more.
So you get less, and pay more. At least they should set you up with a jar of vaseline when they have you over the table signing the papers. |

Pick up an E90 335i for daily driver? 50k+ miles you can find for cheap!

And how do you gather that? A stock 335i dynos 270 WHP or so, a tuned 328i currently dynos around 255 by burger tuning and they say soon they may be able to gain another 10 WHP so we can expect 265 WHP at the max. I cannot see this as being smoking in any sort of way...

Last dyno I saw was 260 hp 280 ft/lbs for tune only on the N20, but don't forget it has the 8 speed automatic which helps acceleration a fair bit and the 4 cylinder weighs a bit less.
Smoke a 335i, not really, run with a stock one - should be right there!

I was just kidding when I was saying FACT. I actually have no idea about what can smoke what. I'm pretty much a n00b.

Tune only... yes but with bolt ons and meth obviously more... potentially a touch over 300 WHP which is nice but that is still less by about 30 WHP than a tune only N55 LOL. This is the difference between a 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder motor... With a turbo upgrade things may change but we shall see.

A heavily tuned 328 will smoke a 335i, just as a $2000-tuned 335i N54 will smoke an M3. So what ?...

And I've never leased in my life, not that I think there's anything wrong with a lease.
