Soon to be new owner..... - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Mark M · 05-17-2013, 12:35 PM

Working with my local dealer....will be taking delivery of a 2010 335D; 39k miles, in about a week. Premium Pack / Sport Pack. Space grey over saddle leather

They are sourcing it from another dealer and then will be CPOing it.

Eager to join the click of oilers soon and hope mine brings me nothing but smiles. Fingers crossed.

Congrats and welcome to the diesel family!

Lets see some pics and don't forget to install a JBD for your first mod!

Mark M · 05-17-2013, 01:53 PM

Thanks for the warm welcome.....but doubt I'll ever do the JBD. I plan to keep this car for MANY miles and have zero desire to gum it up with soot. I do ~22k miles a year, hoping for reliability over tire shredability.

I have the E30 M3 for when I really have the urge for twisties and high rpm fun.

Looking forward to enjoying a giant grin on my face. Been eager for a D for years now.

Congrats.

Good luck. I've been smiling all week, even in bumper to bumper traffic (30.5 MPG).

Got_Diesel · 05-17-2013, 04:45 PM

Looks like my car on the outside. Except i've got the Grey leather interior. I love blue water metallic.

I'm jealous. I only get 23mpg. 335i of course.

Owning a 335d = good deal

+1 nice choice!

MonkUSMC · 05-18-2013, 12:26 AM

One does not simply get a 335d without JBD.

Congrats on the temporarily emptier wallet. You'll have fun in the car.

Persian Whisperjet · 05-18-2013, 06:59 AM

Excellent. I have the Blue Water too and love it -- it seems to change color as the sun moves across the sky. Sometimes it's blue, sometimes gray.

Actually it is space grey over saddle leather.

Michael335d · 05-18-2013, 10:28 AM

Nice!!!!! You will love it. MAKE SURE you check the entire service records for injector problems......

Another ~2 days till I take ownership.

My dad works as a driver for the local BMW dealer. So I cashed in air miles and sent him to Charlotte for the car. After ~450 miles he is all but back to our local dealer with it. Averaging 40.5mpg on the trip computer. I am sooo eager to get behind the wheel of this machine!

Only snag so far, turns out it didn't have a full tank of def. No start condition ~200 miles into the trip, but told him to just keep it running and not shut her off. Local dealer will sort it all out. (My dad is not mechanically inclined, so instructing him to fill def at a truck stop would not go over well)

Overall he says it is an amazing car!

Mark once you drive it, you will start to reconsider your M for track. I have friends who have sat with me and have M's and they were blown AWAY with our "D"s but definetily and M is an M is an M and it cannot be compared to our "D's
