Agreed^

I'm also going to blame my 22L/100km economy on the gearing. It's definitely not my foot

LMB335IS · 07-12-2019, 07:23 PM

Conversely though, non M DCT cars also come with one of the highest, if not the highest, final drive ratios @ 2.56

2jz300 · 07-24-2019, 11:55 PM

I've been searching for a 6 speed 335is for quite some time now. Currently running out of patience and came across a DCT for a pretty fair price. For the DCT drivers, how would you rate the fun factor? Does it get boring after quite some time?

BSM n54iS · 07-25-2019, 03:51 AM

They won't admit it does

Damn didn't know they were that rare.

I'm curious of our resale value in the future... I know our cars ain't no 1M or even 135is, I'll be curious to see.

I love driving my DCT. Only down side I have found is going to do the 1/4 mile.
Don't want to launch the car at 5K so just have to mash the pedal but 60' times are shit.

Can't you change the launch RPM via MHD?

Not sure on the exact production numbers but after puling a nationwide search on Cars, Autotrader, BMW used inventory, etc there arent many 6sp available.

Could be that most owners are holding onto them idk

717 coupes and 315 convertibles. Production #s can be found on this page:
https://www.e90post.com/forums/showt...=799243&page=4

Looks like there's only one manual coupe for sale in the entire country, so yes owners are holding on to them.

What's so special about the 135is though? Didn't know it was rare

I they they were considerably less produced so more rare. Only made model year 2013. Oh wow and I just learned this 135is uses a modified N55. I thought it was N54. Wow that's interesting! I guess makes sense considered the 1M has the N54T like 335is.

Yeah, N55 and I think it was the only 1 series in NA offered with the DCT.

The DCT was an option 'automatic transmission' for the 135i starting in MY 2011. I am not 100% sure if it was 'the option', but it was certainly available starting 2011. That was also when the 1 series switched to N55. The 135is was not the only DCT car, pretty cool!

What about the mt having an upgraded clutch like we do? Also haven't seen anything about stiffer engine mounts but aside from that can't think of any real other major differences from that iS to ours.

Doesn't have our diffuser which I love and those version of 313's don't seem to be nearly as concave as ours

Not yet, but I do hear it is coming in the future.

TheMidnightNarwhal · 08-01-2019, 03:58 PM

Has anyone put alcantara e brake? I did and it bothers me a bit how trim is different from IS hexagon allu. What did you guys do that have it? Did you leave it as is? I'm thinking wrap but into what. CF would be a bit "ricy" IMO but I have no other idea.

Resale value crashing harder than the stock market after the new tariff announcements:

I was driving on the highway and a truck kicked up a large piece of metal debris and sent it right at me, unavoidable. 3 feet higher and it would have been coming through the window, so got to be thankful there. Going through insurance, there was damage to my front bumper as well.

NoGuru · 08-04-2019, 06:16 AM

FuuuuuuuuuK

mikeyoooooo · 08-04-2019, 07:14 PM

My 2013 335is, 67k miles. The picture is a little old but still looks the same.
FBO running 18psi on e50. Inlets are next on the list.

This thread is probably the right place to drop this.

Nice did you go with Clusters and Coding? I saw their recent post on a 200mph dash for the IS. I like it but my only OCD concern is not having the km/h filled in

I am Clusters and Coding. I can get them with km/h as a one off but when i researched most everyone didn't want the km/h. But i do get the OCD about these things lol.
