Probably more comfortable than oem!

Had a gt3 set in a Porsche and they hold you snug.

These feel great, not to slim, just right, but will let you know when fitted and properly tested!

I've considered it, and on several occasions been close to buying a second hand kit, but just feel for the cash, it's one step to far. 10k plus just seems crazy!
Not dissing the bm but if I was to add 10k I'd sell it and buy an r8, which I'm considering.

I have the remap, primary decat and akrapovic so pushing 450hp, and don't drive it a great deal as is, so can't see the point In the long term.

i gave you that link which costs 4500k, and as far as i know there is not tax on 2nd hand, and i dont think fitting and remap is another 5000k, maybe 2k max, or even 1...you might fit it yourself...

audi r8, well, not practical....i thought everybody buying an m3 is after practicality, and you can move stuff in e92, you can even sleep there....i was lying there on the folded rear seats stretching to the boot,,,,

Let's ignore the fact I have a 325i soon to be 335i (JB4 with LSD).

Fact is your 335d is a great car. But lets be honest here:

- ...for a start yours sounds shit
- the M3 looks better than yours stock
- and finally it will just drop the panties of the bitches a lot quicker FACT
- It's NOT an M3
NOT SURE HIS BMW M3 LOOKS THAT MUCH BETTER THOUGH....I PLAN TO ADD M3 LOOK SIDE SKIRTS AND WHEEL SPACERS...BUT NOT SURE HOW MANY mm

MINE

Martin give it a rest mate

STOP DISRESPECTING HIS THREAD! Out of all of us, the OP himself has been very calm and collected with you. Stop testing his and everybody's patience because we don't take that on here. we're a good bunch of guys sharing our passion. Don't need none of your hating comments.

Oh and his M3 looks a world apart from yours, drives faster, sounds sexier and its a V8.

Help him? With what? Unless I'm wrong, he hasn't asked for your expert opinion LOL. Posting a comparison picture of your car v his car isn't helping mate, it's only making you look stupid. But please, continue..

OMG I AM NOT DISRESPECTING ANYONE I AM JUST A LITTLE JEALOUS, I CANNOT AFFORD FILLING UP A BMW M3, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I DON'T LIKE IT, COZ I AM READING ALL OVER THE PLACE IT IS WEAK, HAS WEAK PULL AT LOW REVS, SO I BASICALLY SEE THE CAR AS A PRETENTIOUS....OR, IF I AM WRONG, ANSWER MY QUESTION:
WHICH OF THE TWO CARS PUSH YOU BACK TO THE SEAT MORE BY THE FULL PUSH DOWN ON A GAS PEDAL?? I STILL THINK THE TORQUEY 335D does it more, doesn't it?

and btw, i dont think that chicks see that much of a difference between those two cars and it's all that matters to me anyway


PS: MAYBE YOU ARE A LITTLE ENVIOUS TOO, COZ MY CAR LOOKS MILES BETTER THAN YOURS, BTW...EVEN THOUGH YOU ALSO SPORT THAT AERO SPOILER AS I CAN SEE

You are wrong. You're jealous??.. so you post a picture of your own car on someone else's thread to try and make yourself feel better or let the people see what your car looks like?

I still don't remember anybody asking YOU personally on here how YOU feel about your 335D or the M3.. you're speaking as if somebody actually gives a fuck about your thoughts on this subject LOL. I'm just pissed at you for taking over OP's thread, askin obnoxious questions, making willy nilly statements and now posting your picture like you own the thread when infact you are the most annoying person I've come across in my 4 years of being on here.

LOL, get your head out your arse mate. The chics will definitely see a difference between your car and This gorgeous M3. I cannot be biased as I have a 335D but sometimes you should learn to appreciate the work of others instead of trying to give advice.

Judging by your 'taste' and OP's, it's clear where my vote would go and I'm sure I speak on behalf of 99% of the population. NOT BECAUSE IT'S AN M3...but because of the select and tasteful modifications OP's done.

Guys, guys his car is awesome don't worry everything this genius says is true. 335D is so great bmw are scrapping the m4. Whatever he says is right cant we all see that?

On another note his 335d is clearly the best BMW I have seen.

OP the car looks fantastic, I drove an M the other day and fell in love planning to get one next year for end of summer. Fantastic car so poised and balanced. Really shows the imperfections in my car! Keep hold of it and mod till you can not mod no more. Have you thought about making the arm rest alcantara?

P.S. Martin 4500k is 4.5 million a K means a thousand add a thousand to 4500 and you get 4500000. Laugh out loud (so funny had to spell it out for the poor guy, bless his cotton socks)

thanks mate....so why don't you get a 335d then, but you go for M3? are you ready filling up the tank twice as often as you do now?

lol...sarcasm clearly flew over your head, or are you trolling?

To be honest, I don't like diesel cars, I don't like the noise the limited revs the fact that they run out of puff once boost ends. They are gruff and just not for me. The torque is fun and makes you feel like you are going way faster than you are. The wonderful thing about us humans though is we can have a difference of opinion and that is what makes us unique.

My car is getting 18mpg a lot worse than it should I have never known the joys of good economy, so im not fussed about filling up etc. Im only young ive just graduated from university so if I want a silly money burning car why not do it now?

Also M cars are the pinnacle of the model, they take the chassis and fine tune it. Everything is uprated, its the car at its upmost peak. Modding a 335D will still leave a bit of emptiness sure you can make it fast in a straight line, but that's no fun. If you want that get a muscle car. For me its how it handles in turns, is it controllable. Does it skip and bounce when going fast over bad surfaces if so its not for me. I like precision, I like a character and I want an 8 cylinder engine lol. I want that raucous engine note. M cars deliver what I want and more the looks are muscular but subtle at the same time, they handle with precision and round country roads you'd be hard pressed to find much else better for the price stock. They are just great cars. The fact your so dismissive of the M3 and so pro the 335D boggles my mind. BMW are renowned for their M cars and its what made them have the title ultimate driving machine. If you are a BMW fan and you want the best drive surely an M car should be your goal? The 335D is probably an amazing car ive never driven one and don't intend to. But to say that it is better than the M is silly and why would BMW cannibalise their model range like that?

Anyway we are all hijacking the OP's thread, I for one love cosmetic mods, and I wouldn't do power mods to a car like that, I think the OP is right on track to making the best looking E92 ive seen. Can't wait for any updates. If you disagree cool that's you and that's wonderful, but don't have a go if you want more information he's not willing to divulge PM him or something. Lastly, personally I wouldn't do a power mod to an m3 because the M division made that engine that way and tuned that chassis that way, what makes you think you can make it better without compromises here and there? with a bolt on supercharger kit?

yeah I dislike the sliding armrest and miss the one from my E46. Think the alcantara would look good though go with the theme.
