+Kyle Rollins I do wish they had better cup holders in a differtent locations but I'm not worried about it too much. Fun car to drive and get those heads turning with the sounds of the exhaust.
@@1970borntorun Yeah the E90-E92 BMW 3 Series was probably the best one ever made if I had to say. It was also probably the best looking, although the E36 and the E46 are really good looking too.
The BMW feels more focused, better balanced. The Audi feels more nosy heavy from the more front-biased weight distribution. The BMW has that perfect front engine RWD configuration for that near perfect 50/50. At the same time, the Audi feels more secure in corners, that AWD sticks to the road but the BMW is more tail happy and fun. What do you want more? Civilized driving dynamics wrapped in luxury and AWD grip or RWD dynamics with perfect steering and that straight-6 noise. The choose is yours.
You've got us confused with another reviewer, we never criticize a vehicle for not having a leather stitched dash... unless maybe the price is over $100 grand.
Nice review but that is not e90 it's e92 E90 is Sedan E91 is Wagon E92 is Coupe E93 Convertible btw thank you so much for videos and test drive's i love your videos! KEEP IT UP
@@chief0120 n54 the 335is only came with an n54 because they could get more ponies out of it and it was geared more towards people who wanted to build them vs the standard 335i. just totalled my 335xi and im looking into one of these bad boys cuz the power is unbeatable in the price range
+TheLanard FYI, it did not open by itself, there is a little lever you pull on slightly and it does what is known as "soft opening" where it slowly opens the rest of the way, the same thing happens for the trunk. You don't have to slam the trunk in order for it to close, you close it softly and it grabs and pulls the trunk the rest of the way softly thus ensuring that it is locked.
+Brent Arnold God I envy you, enjoy the ride man. I have 328i msport e92 and its quite a blast but that extra 120 hp will prob make the car feel insane.
It's an 335is and it's in great shape. The person really took good care of it! I've done the basics. Oils change and sparkplug/ o-ring change. I learned how to do it my self here on you tube so that saves me in labor, but I did have to buy the tools so I probably spent the same amount of money. I have a full bolt on and a Cobb stage 2+ aggressive map and the thing is awesome. I haven't put it on a dyno, but I bet it's close to 400whp and 450 torque. Bottom line if you hot rod it everywhere of coarse parts will go out quicker, but if you just have fun every once in a while I doubt it's worse than any other car. You will pay almost double labor charge for mechs to do labor, but basic things like oil change, spark plugs, O-rings, are all super easy (if you have good weather).
this was another great review- I don't think I've found a review on the 335is that properly captures the GORGEOUS noise this car makes. Yours was the first!
It's all about fully opening up the N54's aspiration & cranking up those turbos. Pump $7000+ into a 335i and M3s will eat your dust. This guy - "Whoooaaa oh ya, you can feel that power..." on a stock 335is? Man you gotta feel one of these cars fully pimped out. I was a non believer in the 335i(s) until this last summer.
This 335 IS is better than m3,because I don't love V8 engine in M3,i love straight six and turbochagert car.With 7 DCT is amazing car.This is my opinion. :D
Ross MK I never been in the Infiniti Coupes before but from all the videos I've seen of the Infiniti coupes and the new Mustang this car has the most legroom. Sucks because I want a Infiniti Coupe but I need ample legroom in the back.
Ness Rosenbrad I wonder how the new q60 coupe is in legroom. The Mustang looks much bigger and some how has less space than the BMW it's actually shocking how is that even possible.
Ross MK Yeah the Mustang is 188 inches in length while this is 183. Longer car indeed but not any good legroom and that right there is the deal breaker for me but I will inspect the car and test out the back seats myself when I go to the Ford dealership.
dejangcool Yeah, with a tune. We're talking stock. A Honda Civic that's boosted running on meth injection and a motor swap would destroy a Lamborghini. duuuhhhhrrr
I had the 335is convertible with the six speed manual, it is a very fast car and shifting it yourself definitely feels much better than the DCT. Unfortunately, the only downside for the 335is is the suspension is too stiff and it's not adjustable, I driven the E92 M3 as well the ride is much more forgiving. Too bad I'm returning my 335is next month coz lease is up, but i'm looking forward to the new M3 which hopefully be debuting with the tri-turbo straight six.
@@romanpalumbo5976the manual is the same as the M3 aswell just like the dct. There’s a plethora of differences, literally a complete different car compared to a normal 335i if you drive the two. Plus a 335is is gonna hold value and possibly appreciate in the future
NovaCreep are you crazy? they go for less than 32 with like no miles on them. www.cargurus.com/Cars/inventorylisting/viewDetailsFilterViewInventoryListing.action?shopperListingsSearch=31072369#listing=157035285
and all these years later this model still holding some value but the n54 engine while the power potential is great has proven to be not the most reliable.
You need to go on Burger Motorsports website and buy about $5000 worth of parts (stage 3), and get the good dual exhaust w/ downpipes from somehwere, and this car will pull so hard you won't even be able to shift the gears properly.
I'm not sure that you have to put the key fob in the slot to be able to start the car because I had a 2013 Bmw z4 s-drive30i and it had the same push button start system but i could put the key fob in my pocket and still be able to start the car.
Im a little confused i thought BMW discontinued the coupe’s on the 3 series after 2011 with the introduction of the 4 series? This must be a 2011 not a 2013 also it has E90 interior which was replaced by the F generation after 2011.
Sofyan! Thanks for another great review bro, enjoyed it all. Btw, I was thinking of getting a newer BMW and selling my E46 330 which I LOVE! After watching this, I'll be looking into a 335i for sure, so thanks for helping me choose man.
how was the headroom in that backseat? the styling doesn't seem to swoop down that much, did that give it more headroom? i know buyers of this vehicle don't care that much abt this, but it is just a random question lol
Besides HPFP, water pump, MAP sensors and many other little things, they are fairly reliable. Let's not kid ourselves shall we. The car is great BUT it is far from reliable.
Bruno Danese HPFP is fully covered by the dealer (recall). Water pump is definitely an issue but that is the case with almost every BMW from 2006-2009.
This seems like it has the most back seat legroom in any coupe. Im 6 3 and sat in the back comfortably. Im deciding a g35 coupe or a new Mustang and I hope they have as much space in the back as this car right here at least.
I have a 2012 335is and I love this car, traded an 08 335i sedan in on it. Twin Turbos are fun, the 335is is just a blast to "Point and Shoot" in and around traffic.
No, the 335is, 135is and Z35is all kept the Twin Turbo N54 like the 1M and earlier 335's. The Twin Scroll came out with the N55 engines which came with the later 2010+ 335's excluding the 335is'.
oh man! this car is absolutely stunning and i love the exhaust note even from the interior... gives me butterflies in my stomach. just like your first crush
I wanted an 335is but I could not the spec I wanted. I went with a 2013 E93 Space Grey M Sport 335i with red interior and the same trim as this car with 25k miles for 27990 from Carmax. I would say if you're in the market for a 335 or 335is go for the spec. Everything thing else is easier to change exhaust note, hp, body panels. But you can't change it being a convertible so on so forth
Mine brand new cost $71,902 after taxes $75,497.10 with every package. Cold Weather package, Premium package, Premium Sound package, Convenience package, the M Sports package. and every additional option (Entertainment, Convenience, premium, and safety options). It was also a show room model which sucks before then they cut 6 months off the extended warranty due to it being driven less by various customers.
The good days before the 4 series happened and no more 3 series coupes. I wish the f30 and g20 offered a coupe version or “2 door sedan”, same shape, just slightly shortened with two doors. No super slope-y roof line and duck bill trunk lid. The 4 has gran coupe which is a four door coupe, so why not make a 2 door sedan. Look at an e46 2-door, that lineage died when the 4 series came. Look at a e46 coupe than an f30 and imagine that f30 proportioned like that e46 coupe, would be amazing.
Not really, can't really compare RWD with an AWD car. It just doesn't compare when weather gets nasty and road gets icy. 335is has its own niche, and it's gonna appeal more to the true driving enthusiast that like the organic feeling or being connected to the tarmac that originally made us love driving. Those who buy an S5 is looking for a safe, 4wd sports car that is virtually unstoppable in any weather. One thing that's for sure, S5 just isn't as connected compared even to 320i.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the 2011+ 335is contain the n55 engine twin scroll turbo. You said that it's the old twin turbo n54 engine. But I thought I read in a few places that they ditched that engine mid 2010. And the new 340i is like b58 or something.
I chose my 2012 335is convertible with the DCTover the M3 for the $8K savings - maybe a mistake. It is a step above the 335i, but the suspension doesn't match the powertrain performance at the limit. Also, while the DCT is wicked fast and smooth, off the line it can be pokey - there have been a few times that I almost killed myself making a left turn in an intersection where the car had to think for a second or two. Resale on the 335is won't be as good as the M3 so this is a great used car buy.
don't care about the cupholders, because when I get mine no one is drinking/eating anything in it! lol

We agree, the aesthetics of this particular 335is was just perfect.
The BMW feels more focused, better balanced. The Audi feels more nosy heavy from the more front-biased weight distribution.

@@chief0120 nah auto but the autos are nice for what they are
Definitely, the C250... although it's not a fair comparison. If you were going to ask if the 320i or C250 is easier to drive, we'd go with the BMW.
Did anyone else notice the glovebox opening by itself @8:33? At $61,000 that makes no sense.
+TheLanard im pretty sure it was the fact that this guy doesnt know how to not stuff the glove box and he doesnt know how to close it correctly

BMW quality right there. Imagine when the sunroof opens itself by itself or the hood😂😂😂
Never liked the drooping headlight design on the LCI E92, they should have left it the same as the pre-LCI model
It opened on its own when the throttle was floored. Guess that turbo 6 packs a punch lol
Audi A5? Lol you mean the Audi S5, A5 cant compete performance wise S5 can.
Nice upgrade, you'll definitely love the E92 just as much if not more than your E46 ;)

His 335is coupe was the 2011 model.
Wow, went back in time with this. You had a great formula right from the beginning!
Was lucky enough to be able to drive the convertible 335is. It was an absolutely incredible experience.
If you just push the button without inserting the key it does nothing. Smart entry is part of the convenience package which this car lacked.
Not at all, some people feel the M3 is too much, plus who could resist that turbo straight-6 that nearly delivers the same performance as the V8 M3?

Lol and now you can get one for 20-25k have to love the bmw depreciation lol
Love this BMW. Other brands you need to add aftermarket parts to make the cars good but BMWs have always been perfect straight from the factory.
My 550i mSport was a monster and unbelievable in turns.
The last best BMW. Just right. The 4-series looks like a f*cking Accord now.
I am 5ft 10 and I've sat in the back of one of these it isn't too bad, the only annoying part would be getting in or out of the backseat.

audi a5 for the competition? shouldn't it be the audi s5?
It is the s5, I think he just messed up. This thing would rip an A5 to shreds
Kyle D no it wouldn't , the 3.0tdi and the 2.0t with a tune would keep up with it

just bought a 2011 335is!
Me too!
After owning the car for awhile now what is your opinion on this car as a daily driver? Comments on reliability and performance?

Yea. There's one in my area for 35k with 43k miles.
yeah thats a good deal (':
did you end up buying it? My friend is buying a 2013 335is with 26k miles on it for a final price of 34

Is it only me or his videos are more about his opinion rather than a Review.
Clearly you haven't driven a BMW N54 engine with that added overboost. It's noticeably different,
What exactly does the temperature looking knob between the 2 center air vents do, with the Red/Blue on either side.
Look it up
Would rather get this over the M3! This car with a tune is an absolute sleeper.
love your reviews will recommend to my friends.
Sofyan! Thanks for another great review bro, enjoyed it all. Btw, I was thinking of getting a newer BMW and selling my E46 330 which I LOVE! After watching this, I'll be looking into a 335i for sure, so thanks for helping me choose man.
Sofyan, how are the steering and handling characteristics of this BMW versus an Audi with Quattro?
how was the headroom in that backseat? the styling doesn't seem to swoop down that much, did that give it more headroom?
i know buyers of this vehicle don't care that much abt this, but it is just a random question lol
and the adaptive xenons have always been standard equipment on the e92/93 cars since 2007 when they were introduced
is this 2013 BMW 335IS Coupe still hydraulic or has it turned into the electric steering and feedback phase?
335i and 335is have hydraulic steering (electronically assisted though) Very good feel.

Can someone tell me how is gearing in that car?ive had speed3 and i hated short first gear?does this have longer first gear?
Best looking BMW ever... The 335 coupe.
I've thought about getting a used one, the reliability is really bad though...
Besides pretty common HPFP failures, they are actually fairly reliable.
Besides HPFP, water pump, MAP sensors and many other little things, they are fairly reliable.
Let's not kid ourselves shall we. The car is great BUT it is far from reliable.
I have a 09 335ix, only major issue is my electric water pump at ~74k but thats been it.
Bruno Danese HPFP is fully covered by the dealer (recall). Water pump is definitely an issue but that is the case with almost every BMW from 2006-2009.
Find one with an extended warranty?
I really wanna know which felt faster the q60 or the 335i
I found a 2013 335is for 17k with 71 thousand miles on it and I was thinking about getting it but I’m 19 and the insurance on that thing is no joke..
Excellent job with this review Sofyan. I can definitely tell that you had a boat load of fun driving that M sport-tuned 335is :)

+Nebderf 350zHR nope, it kept the n54. they added extra cooling to it i believe. the regular 335i got the n55
2011 and newer are n55 single turbo
Incorrect, 2011-2013 335is manual tran are the last N54s
is there a DSC "fun button" ?
Travis if you hold the traction control button long enough it'll turn it off.....if I remember right
There is a DCT button on the dash near hazard light switch. You engage this DCT and the sports button for max fun.
and there is no regular 8 speed auto in the is...there is only the dct and 6sp manual
Nice review. Looks nicer than the Mercedes C class coupe.
Review a 2013 ford mustang svt cobra next
They don't make the E92 body anymore. Convertible is E93 body. That's why all 3 series and M3 coupe is gone but the convertibles are still there.
Only flaw is the brittle ride, which is apparent on either 18" and 19" wheels.
It sounds amazing!
Has the 335is been discontinued?
Isn’t that a n55? Thought they stopped with n54 engine with the 2010.
Daniel The 335is still has the n54. It was the only 3 series that kept it after 2010.
Manny Abreu nah they use the n55 engine for the 2011-2015.
Daniel 335i’s have the n55 not the 335(is)
Why not use the paddles?
it was a joy just watching. i want to drive one!
2013 audi s5 next?
Can you fix the rattle from your camera
Great review. Good job.
I chose my 2012 335is convertible with the DCTover the M3 for the $8K savings - maybe a mistake. It is a step above the 335i, but the suspension doesn't match the powertrain performance at the limit. Also, while the DCT is wicked fast and smooth, off the line it can be pokey - there have been a few times that I almost killed myself making a left turn in an intersection where the car had to think for a second or two. Resale on the 335is won't be as good as the M3 so this is a great used car buy.
I got the 335i to go from 60-120 very quickly, such a faster car than the g37
is this year still hydronic, or non car enthusiast electric?
Hydraulic
