Car and Driver 10/06 issue, Preview Test 335i "Beauty and the Boost" reports the following:
"... The Alpine heights magnified the benefits of boost, but we're certain this new engine will win friends at any altitude. BMW forecasts 0-60 mph times of 5.3 seconds for the 335i. Judging by our Tirol touring, we thought this was conservative, a premonition that was vindicated when a 335i showed up at Hogback HQ as this issue was going to bed-- just time enough for some formal test data:
0 to 60 in 4.9 seconds and the quarter-mile in 13.6 at 105 mph. Those results are almost exactly the same as the numbers posted by the last M3 we tested [C/D May 2003]. Wow. 'Nuff said." - page 55
When is the 335i sedan due out? LemansX5?
