I’ve owned the following:

2007 E92 335i 6mt sport
2009 E92 335i 6mt m sport
2011 e90 335d m sport
2012 e92 m3 dct

I owned each for 2-3 years with the exception of the diesel which I’ve had for about 1 year. The 335i’s were the least reliable. Both had turbo failures. Both had water pump failures. Both needed carbon cleaning. Both needed full injector replacements and 02 sensors. Both had cracked valve covers. Bmw covered the turbos and injectors under CPO. I sold them both around 80k miles. My m3 was sold with only 30k miles. The only thing it ever needed was an EDC control module. The diesel has only needed a def tank so far. Fully covered by Bmw under extended warranty. Nox sensors are also covered. Both the 335i and 335d are easily tuned but the 335i wins out in that category. For daily driving the 335d is sublime with an easy 550 lb feet of torque tuned and 39-42mpg Highway. Dynamic driving still favors the 335i. Don’t sleep on the 335d. It’s very unique and Bmw has stepped up with extended warranty.
