If you are sitting in the seat, and have your foot on the go peddle you know well enough that it is a sports car.

I think it looks great from the outside too. But the fact that it is not all jazzed out from a 328 is not a big deal to me at all.

The 335i exhibits something special that sets it apart from its competitors: restraint.

I think the E92 is incredibly sexy (especially with some minor tasteful exterior mods) and I love the fact that it's not trying too hard (like the Rousch Mustang for example)

On the m3 vs IS-F episode he seemed to praise the M3 over the IS-F IIRC.

I think they did....I recall seeing a rerun last week for what I thought was the 335, but perhaps it was the 330...

It's a cool show. Too bad the US version is so lame; the hosts just all have that oh, so serious MBA-student style of delivery that it's downright boring. Now if they got Chris Rock or Lewis Black to host the show, it'd be great...

the british one is great...but the US one isn't thaat bad. I actually like it. I think the blind drifting, alaskian truck episode, and evo in the snow was pretty sick. Its good stuff!

He didn't review it on the show but Jeremy did review the 335i in his news paper column. For those of you too lazy to google or just used to everybody wiping your butts:

the 335i though not as fast reminds me of the old e55 amg and the old rs6. unless you know what you're looking at, they look like nice cars but nothing thats in you're face like with huge flared fenders.
