I walked into the dealer looking for a new M3, no dealer had a new M3 in area (Surprising). It wasn't too bad. I ended up getting this one 7k off sticker. I just wasn't happy with the N55 motor's tuning capabilities.

hahahaha i went in looking for an m3 too and got the 335is cuz it was a good deal. lololol and I gotta say I love every bits of the is. M3 would have been nice as well but Coral Red + DCT combo really got me on my current car. I had to do it.

congrats again! the crimson red is sooooooooo awesome!

Haha I couldn't believe that no dealer in the area had a new M3. I guess we will both save on gas lol!

Thanks

I like your CF Spoiler and the car

Is your IS tuned? I'm shopping for a tune but I'm split between the two.

Thanks! Iv'e been told the color POPs and stands out in traffic. I like how the black accents the red on the IS.

A lot of people don't care for red bimmers but thankfully you're not one of them. Sexy azz car so CONGRATS on the upgrade and welcome to the wonderful world of the IS!

Very good looking car, an upgrade for sure!

SaMaster14 · 07-12-2012, 04:45 PM

Ive never been a fan of red cars in general, but it looks awesome on the 335is. Welcome to the club!

What are your thoughts coming from a 335i? Is there a big difference? Extra power/torque/over boost/DCT(if u got it)?

Also, differences between AWD vs RWD in the 3 series.

Agreed!

This is my 3rd 335. I had an 08 e90 and 11 e90 before. The reason why I got back on the N54 platform is that I love the tuning capabilities of it. The N55 motor according to some people, need some major upgrades such as upgraded turbo. Also, I read in a bunch of places that the crankshaft is cast vs forged in the N54 which further limits the motor.

Stock for stock there is more lower end torque in the N55 IMO. But the DCT shifts so much nicer and faster than the Automatic.

My N55 was tuned Injen Intake and AR DP. Which was faster than the IS stock. I believe once I get a Procede and DCI on the IS it will be much faster. Just have to wait until after break in period

To be honest I don't feel a difference in the AWD vs RWD under normal driving conditions.

Nice is

. You should definitely get the BMW performance trunk spoiler and your is would be complete in the exterior department
