I saw a 1988 camaro IROC-Z on auto trader for $30k last week...

M-Sport 335D's are rare. The diesels were only sold as E90's in the US and supposedly only about 900 or so were produced.

I had one. Just totaled. Going to buy another in a few weeks 🤓

I'd nearly guarantee it.

it's certainly faster on the street for anything higher HP.

maybe a 335i, but not a 328i.. it just costs you an extra 10whp.

But yeah, no E9x's are really rare. Maybe there's an E91 or a special E92 335is, but most of the rest are a dime a dozen.

Try looking for an E90 335D with the M-Sport package and report back if they are a dime a dozen. Same with OP's car, I doubt you'll easily find another one optioned like that.

335d's certainly are rare. Im currently in the process of buying my 2nd 335d m sport package. There are only about 8 available on cargurus.com

Yeah, the low availability make's them hard to find. Even harder to find one if you want it in a specific color combo or options. Did you find yours local or are you having it shipped from another state?

I found it in another state and I'm having it shipped

OP, I have one, but different color. I did a quick search on the for sale page. I think I counted 4-5 xdrive manuals m-sports 328 in the last 3-4 years. Maybe if you consider the color combo, yes, I would say semi-rare. Just like I don't see a lot of Blue Water Metallic in general, much less E90 M-Sport xDrive Manual 328 with iDrive. That's a lot of words to describe what is ultimately just a 328

Exactly, at the end of the day it's still just a 328. I know its not worth more than other e90's, but its neat knowing that combination of features isn't something you see everyday on the road.

Yeah it took me a good 6 months to find a E90 335i xDrive, MSport, 6MT, Nav car. I'd say it's fairly rare....just because the options made zero sense at the time of purchase. It's hard to get people to pay up for the MSport when the benefits were not there.

But damn it looks good.

Mine's in LeMans blue as well.

Maybe a better description would be "uncommon". When you say something is rare, it implies extra value, which isn't really the case here.

The bumpers and steering wheel are what i like about it. I could go without the M logos
