Dude, I was too big time. My last car was a Acura TSX which was pretty much half as much as the 335. But so far I have not been disappointed at all. The 335 is a great car... part beast, part solid quiet luxury car. Don't worry about the $$... you're getting an awesome car dude... enjoy it!

And oh yeah...... my girlfriend thought I was nutso for spending so much on a car....but we had to to the Charlotte and pick it up (about 2 1/2 hours away) and by the time we got back, she really finally understood why I spent that much. She went from thinking I was wasting my money to being very impressed with the 335. She's an SUV person, but if she wasn't I think she she would seriously consider a 3'er now.

Thanks for the encouragement, believe me....it helps. To tell you the truth, this car is a little out of my league. Eight years of payments, here I come. I'm sure the initial payment shock will wear off in a few days.

Aww hell, it was probably out of my league too. But I'm a car enthusiast and I've always bought fairly cheap conservative cars... Accord, Prelude, Maxima, TSX.... so it was finally time to get something that kicked a$$. It took me a long time to finally pull the trigger, but I'm glad I did. It's a great car.

My wait is almost over. My CA just told me that car is released to the trucker. I should have it tomorrow!

I was until I got to drive it after ED. After a few hundred miles in the first 2 days I was telling myself I absolutely didn't regret getting it. I felt like I wouldn't feel bad if I had to spend $5k more than what I paid for. It's really a lot of car for the money. I've been pleasantly suprised days after days of driving... and i didn't even have a chance to push it yet!

Kbueno · 02-22-2007, 04:08 PM

GOT THE CALL!!!! Day earlier than expected. Going to pick-up now! Clammy hands, nervous, anxious, scared and happy at the same time.

Kbueno · 02-23-2007, 05:36 PM

I survived the finance office and have a new car! Finally the wait is over. Hopefully, the rest of you will be taking delivery (or re-delivery) soon!

Congrats. My car's sitting on the truck in front of the dealer. Hopefully they can prep it for tomorrow.

SpiralOut · 02-23-2007, 08:58 PM

Sweet... congrats guys!

jefe888 · 02-24-2007, 05:47 PM

Well guys, I hope you're wait isn't much longer. After 43 days of separation, I finally I have it back in my posession. Big thanks to Willie and crew at Steve Thomas BMW for rushing the PDI.

flush01 · 02-24-2007, 05:52 PM

I forgot to give my recommendations for my CA (Jon Walker) at Brecht BMW in Escondido. Great guy, fellow enthusiast, and really kept me in the loop. Thanks again!

Got mine Friday. Got windows tinted Sat =). As soon as I figure out how to post pics, I will.

hk51 · 02-27-2007, 12:34 PM

Damn! How long does it take for a truck to get from LA to Portland?!?! I'm still waiting for my 335i to arrive at the dealership! I'm not positive but i think the boat ride from Germany was just a bit longer (because of going through the Panama Canal and all) ;-)

juuni · 02-27-2007, 02:32 PM

Car arrived this morning at dealer. Picking up tomorrow at noon!

Kbueno · 02-27-2007, 05:17 PM

Post Delivery Pic!

ayigu · 02-27-2007, 07:07 PM
