Why did you choose the 335D?

Yeah...forget about going toe-to-toe with an E90 M3. You'll have a better chance going against a stock E46 M3.

I saw an European car review when the car first came out in 2009 that really sold me. When I learned that it had more torque then a Corvette, better passing power than an Aston Martin 12 cylinder and better highway fuel mileage than a Honda Civic I knew it was the car for me. German Engineering at its finest.

Well I love diesel cars 3 out of the 4 cars I have owned were diesel. In Nov. of 2011 I was looking at upgrading my 06 Jetta TDi because it had issues that couldnt be fixed so I was looking at the 2012 Jetta and Passat TDi's of course when my friend convinced me to test drive a 335d the one I test drove was wayy out of my budget.

But once I drove the car that was it I started hunting for it, the 335d was the ultimate driving machine:

- power
- fuel economy and smiles per gallon
- handling
- luxury
- SPORT SEATS

9 months later I found my d and it's been like a dream come true. Just this month I was away for 2 weeks and when I was reunited with my d it was a feeling like no other.

This car is amazing.
