First impressions:
Feels stronger and more responsive then mine. It reacts to throttle input better and I felt more of a pull from the low revs.

Now, regarding the throttle response.
No - it is nowhere near the 2007/2006 agressive response in the low revs, but it is better then 29.2+.

I didn't feel the no-lag, hard pull I do with a '07 built. I keept feeling like it went with 85% of it's potential, the missing 15% would'nt bother me if I never drove a pre 29.2 car. But I have, so It does.

I understand why my Swedish countryman is so excited, because it is better, heck Its a fantastic car compared to most things out there but for those who have driven the "old" 335i it will feel ok, but not -Halleluja, Its back!

It's like meyergru says - somewhere in the middle..


no offense to anyone who has a '09, Just want to say that if you love your new car now, just imagine how it was 10 months ago.
Thx Pavel!

Can you come down and testdrive my car aswell?
There is difference between every single car.

Anyway we always can get Dinan or similar after two years.


Take care!
