Default So I rode in the new BMW 335i yesterday

Looked under the hood I believe I saw two 710ns. Tiny turbos too. The car has good throttle response and a raspy exhaust. The cup holder cooler is also a neat idea ..LOL .. As for all out speed its not bad, I was going 90 and it felt like 60. I had to keep the mind set that its not going to have all out grunt like the stage III S4 so with that in mind its a decent car. Sales men wanted me to trade in my S for it! haha nevar! The kid salesmen seemed pretty determined to buy one and 'Throw exhaust and a bigger turbo on in his backyard.' Goodluck wit that!

I hate salesmen that think they're tuners....Although they insist you beat it on test drives.

Default What are your thoughts compared to a stage 2 b5 s4?

The rumor going around is that it's closer to 330 hp as opposed to 300.
