SA told me its going to take 2-3weeks because the part they need is on a national backorder or something.

let just say im so glad i went with a m3 instead of a 335 the m3 just feels more connected to the road and buts a big smile on your face when you drive it.

Sorry to hear for the crazy listing of errors. I hope you get you M back on the road.

How does the 335i feel? Does the turbo have a lag?

Make sure you take the 335i out on a nice long drive while you have it. It is a very fun car in its own right and while no M, it can hold its own in the twisties.

Better yet, drive it around town -- that's where the 335i shines.

The low-end grunt is that car's centerpiece, IMHO.
