JCL,
I may waddle down to our local foofoo Naples, FL BeamER Stlr
and see if they will allow me; with no X here, to pull into their
parking lot with, and their haughty rep, I'm not sure they will
be accomodating. I gotta dig out my peach alpaca sweater and
Ralph Lauren linen pants...

Glad you are seriously considering pulling the trigger. For me, it
would just be a fun ride, though there is little road room near that
Stlr to fire it up and see what it does...

and, am not in the Mkt for a smallish, very fast car, with no
trunk. Great car, as are all the 3 series, but it would be a fourth
car and I can't justify a 4th of anything at this time.
GL,mD

I went back to the dealer this weekend, and reviewed my plan for a new 335 coupe. The plan is Space Gray, with the jade two tone interior (special order with Space Gray), MT, sport, premium, 19", 4 17" winter wheels and tires, PDC, etc. No nav or step, but every other option. Also a 2007 X3si (we get both engines here in the GWN) so that I can still hang out on X5 World. Ti AG over black leather, not so many other options. Thinking about premium, but not sure we want the pano sunroof.

I read some more about the XEDE non-chip, with another 50 hp at the crank, on 93 octane. I figure it will only risk the engine if one actually uses the available power . That's my story and I 'm sticking to it.

Anyway, just go drive it.

Jeff
Jeff, you can drive a tricycle (the pedal variety) and still be an honored member here. You're part of the gang.

Well, it was said tongue in cheek, but I appreciate the sentiment, thanks!

I am in a hotel room just outside Munich, 8340 km from home, and this site is one of the things I keep up with when I travel. It is a great place to belong. It has a way of shrinking distances.

Jeff

Drove it last week.. It was amazing! I didn't even have a chance to use the power, but the overall advances over the E46 are apparent the second you start it. It's so smooth, the shifter is very crisp, the throws are much shorter.. I loved it.
