Test drive 335i 6MT

mosport70 · 09-09-2006, 06:01 PM

Wow, amazing power. Drove it with a buddy unsupervised. Chirped the rears loudly on the 1-2, 2-3 and audibly on the 3-4 with DTC off.

Power is strong and smooth but drops off noticeably after 6000 rpm.

However, as heart palpitating as the 335i was, I drove my e90 home and it still brought a big grin to my face.

Next up: 335i with paddle shift.

EDIT: Damn, wrong forum... admins pls move it. Too busy looking at the eye candy.
