I owned this car. It was soooo fun to drive but super stressful to own. There’s a chime specifically for errors that would scare me my extra cash would be going to this. Tires were $500 a piece at the time too…
man these cars still look quick to me even today 14 years later. agreed this one does not seem to be performing optimally. should be trapping 104 or so
According to C&D, the 335i sedan should trap 105mph, so it should definitely be faster than any Altima! There is some kind of issue with this specific car, seems like. Maybe misfire, or needs new spark plugs.
Im thinking of getting a clean looking 2011 bmw 335i but havent driven it yet. He wants 10,400 plus tax and fees so around 11,000 usd. Has 103k miles. Im aftiad to go test drive it this saturday because I might be hooked. Its so nice looking

It’s a 6 cylinder. Most 6 cylinder engines no matter the layout vr6,v6 inline 6 sound similar due to similar firing orders and same amount of cylinders.
Nice car. I like inline 6’s. Although the Volvo s80 is similar to that even having a similar power train, the BMW definitely seems more sporty. I think a s60 is a better comparison. Idk what I was saying in my other comment that I deleted.
@@Robert-cp9sc I enjoy any car I drive, and I'll have fun with any car. 140hp is plenty to zip through city traffic with ease, as with the Elantra. The new Elantras are super quick.
Difference between this and a Lexus or an Acura is that Lexus and Acura are always junk, even when brand new, BMW is only junk if you don't maintain it properly and let it go bad with your stupidity. It's incredibly reliable and durable if you do take care of it, meaning, just listen to what BMW tells you and service it regularly, instead of not changing oil for 50k miles and then complaining something went wrong, which is what people in the US like to do. If anything on a BMW ever goes bad on you, it's 100% your fault, remember that. I say that as someone who owned a dozen of them from 1 series to 7 series. It's hard to buy one in Europe with less than 300k km on the clock, and that says a lot. Service is regularly like the manufacturer recommends, use original parts instead of cheap chinese knockoffs and you'll never sweat about reliability.
@@derbigpr500 "Lexus and Acura are always junk". You lost credibility right as you made that statement. Owning a BMW in Europe is a lot easier than owning one here in the US....parts are expensive regardless of the model and many use plastic for integral components in the engine bay. Lexus is the epitome of quality cars here in the US with cars like the LS430, LX470, and GS300, when even with little care, they run and drive fantastic. Why is that? Because they were made extremely well from the factory, using higher quality parts than that of the Germans. Not changing the oil for 50K miles? Majority here change their oil in the regular interval (5000-7500 miles). The truth is that MOST Lexus and Acura usually never become junk (maybe after ~30 years). MOST BMWs, on the other hand, normally become junk after 3-5 years. Try doing some more research instead of being a European car elitist.
You can always find slightly used parts here too, and have them installed for low costs. The reason why those Lexus cars run and drive fantastic is because they use 20+ year old technology, no turbos, and cannot match the performance levels of the Germans. BMW's N/A inline 6 cylinders also run forever without any major repairs. Of course a V8 twin turbo will take more maintenance and care than a LX470. It's not about the part quality. Germans use very high quality parts and their cars don't rust, unlike many Japanese cars. Also, look up "rotted frames" for the GX/LX and other Toyota SUV's. You'll be in for a surprise. I see plenty 200+k BMW's running after many years. Owned a 2005 X5 4.4i with 224k miles, and it ran well, despite the previous owner not doing any proper upkeep of the vehicle.
Toyota/lexus deals in the mantra of “if it aint broke”, German cars push the boundaries between expensive state of the art tech with a car that actually has to run every day. That balance is why some parts wear out more. If lexus tried to match the level of performance and refinement they would be selling a car 10-20k more expensive… its designed to work not be the best. A jdm cant match the level in a million years. Even an LS feels artificial and cheap compared to a 5 or 6, 7 series of the corresponding generation. Just accept your coping and enjoy a lexus cars “reliability” thats nice enough but compromises on feel. Just dont ever compare the two because they are not the same😂 No woman is gonna sit in a lexus from any generation and say this is better than the audi bmw counterpart because its literally 10 years behind and chintzy in the details. The n52/N55/B48/B58 are just decades ahead of any engine lexus has made outside the F cars. You pay more for more.
@derbigpr500 had a 5 series before 2016 with all proper maintenance only lasted 77k miles my old cadillac 2011 lasted longer with almost no attendance not much maintenance is at 169k running like new

I agree!
I have a 2015 N55....man is it fun to drive
my father has an 04 bmw with the 6 cylinder. he says he loves it. i do know the older 6 cylidners were real reliablity
They are all very reliable.
Why is there a flashing green light on the dashboard before turning? Strange!
Most BMW drivers actually show blinkers.
@DMCarReviews haha im just kidding bud! I use them too!
Hey great content. Did you try out the Honda Accord 2.0t?
Thank you! I have, but never filmed one. We even had one in the family. I'll try to film one sometime.
What's up with that dude in the Elantra 😂😂. Good vid.
He is just zipping through the traffic. Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
My dads cousin had a n54 335i with a few bolt ons. It was so fun
fantastic video
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

I agree! Watch my 335i Coupe video. That one is really healthy.
i have a 2011 335xi 6 speed m sport with only 72k mi. By far, one of the most exhilarating cars, if you enjoy 'driving.'
They are so fun!
i have heard it's a big no-no to floor these cars when you are low fuel like this
It's perfectly fine!
I mean ive seen the altima 3.5 veat the 335i from a roll of that year so its trapping right.

@DMCarReviews well then I guess they all have problems then lol. Definately ain't fresh anymore.
@@occckid123Plenty run well, but some need a service to get them back in their original running shape.

Go with 19t and custom tune 20psi it will bring the monster out.
Watch my 335i Coupe review!
Low on gas, high on life.
After you get past a certain amount of very low gas, the car will start cutting power.
