I choose BMW
Since the demise of my 335i I have been going back and forth between a 911 (my childhood dream car) and another 335.
Tonight I was fortunate enough to be able to test drive a black on black 911 for about four hours by myself. (It's a friend that is selling his) I drove it in the city, highway, neighborhoods, I even parked it my garage. I had a blast, but for me, I think the 335 is the better all around car. I am not trying to start a debate. The car was just a little impractical for me and I am single with no kids. It was a bit of a disappointment because I have always loved 911's and the engine behind you at 6000 rpms is lovely. Now, I am going to drive the M3, but I see myself coming back to the 335 with mods this time. To be continued. |

I just like the versatility of the 335 better. I am also 6'2, so I like the extra room. However, once in the 911 it didn't feel cramped except my right knee was kind of smashed against the center console.

Yeah, I like gold diggers. I did get quite a few looks in the car tonite. I really never did in the 335 to my surprise and disappointment. Too common I guess.

The 335 needs a lot of suspension mods to be a real car, both in terms of looks and performance. Ive never driven a P car, but Id imagine no mods are required.

To be serious for a moment....My dad loves the Porche Cayman and he doesnt like the 335i
I on the other hand, think the Porche Cayman is ugly and I love the 335i (Hence why i bought one) Moral of the story, it is a matter of personal preference, let the guy chose what he wants

I love it when people do the opposite thing to common opinion. Personally, i wouldn't buy a model of car till i know that i could buy the best example of its kind.
The M3 looks fantastic from a practicality stand point and it is the best 3 Series you can get...... |
