The engine is blah. I've had several as loaners and couldn't wait to get my car back. They should have upped the hp more in order to compensate for the loss of the smooth and great sounding straight six. The steering feel also sucks compared to the E90. If you're going 3 series, I would just pick up a low mileage CPO. You'll save about $20k and have a longer warranty.

Unless you want a wagon, as they're hard to find with a CPO.

Heres mine:

335i, because you don't need all the power, until you experience ALL THE POWER

Sport Line, because it ISNT an M3. No M Line.

Black with red interior, because it looks Sexy+Classy.

Cold weather pack because headlight washers

Drivers assistance, because Camera

Technology pack, because head up display

And no Drivers Assistance Plus, because I can drive and don't need blind spot.

MANUAL

M Sport Brakes. Sadly, they have blue calipers which makes it look wrong with my color choice. Note: paint them black later.

Rear Manual window shades, because excess is awesome

Enhanced USB Connectivity, because crappy internet generation

Harman Kardon upgraded System, because I appreciate music quality

Side and Top View Cameras, because more excess.

Red interior is always good on a BMW!

335i because the N55 is one of the best engines on the market and I don't like I-4's. Manual transmission of course. Sport because I've heard the Luxury model's suspension makes it boring and I want summer tires. I also don't like the styling or cost of the M-Sport, though I love the M-Sport steering wheel. Then I added heated seats because I can't live without them, parking sensors+backup camera because it's a sedan, and nav because this is a $50000 car. There are a few other features that come with the stuff I had to have. I was actually surprised I kept this under $55k, especially after I got a 320i to $44k yesterday even when I was trying to be careful with the options.

I'd rather get a used E90, but finding a manual one in colors I like would be hard. I'd also rather have a M235i than a 335i.

Yes, I did a 320i. Because it's all the power I'd ever need.

This is what I'd order if I was buying a 3-series.

Nice. I like the 320i. I would like a 220i.

I wish they sold the 220i here, because that's probably the perfect amount of power for that car.

Power is great, but as a dd I would want to be able to drive it close to its limit as much as possible. That's why less power is better for a car like this.

I was going to go for a 320d, but it wasn't there. And the 328d doesn't have a manual 'box, so I went for a 328i.

Alpine With with a red leather interior. Burr walnut dash because I'm pretentious, M Sport Line and a manual 'box. Just under $50k.

I went all out with my dream Melbourne Red Metallic 335xi M-sport. I'll be taking it in manual form, because even though the 8-speed ZF is good, this is better. 335 because I6 turbo. X-drive because I like AWD, and I live in WA state.
Pics:
I chose the Gunmetal grey 18's, since they look the best with Melbourne in my opinion...

Inside, I went with Oyster, since it's fucking perfect (in my opinion)
