Check mine. Will be for sale in May. Its not xi, but I can include like-new winter set for a very good price. Has 45k now and its CPO starts in July.

not trying to push my car.....i am not even selling right now....but why XI ? I personally live in MA and was looking specifically for none-XI, less weight, more fun, better handling, sport suspension, lower ride...and driving in snow with winter tires is better then xi with all-seasons (like many do)

suave5274 · 03-22-2011, 04:43 PM

I hear ya, if it where my choice id be all over the i's. Only reason im upgrading cars in the first place is to get something that's AWD. Father is buying me the car so gotta go by what he says

bump

suave5274 · 03-26-2011, 09:27 AM

Bump for the day. Any 335xi's out there !!??

As someone who drives a 330i w/ snow tires, the xi is not the help that you think it will be in the winter, especially with the all season tires. We had over 55 inches of snow this season too. The limiting factor is the ground clearance. My previous car was a 2006 Subaru Impreza w/ all seasons, and the 335i with snow tires is just as capable.

Tell your dad to save some $$$, get you a 335i, and spend the savings on a set of winter tires.

suave5274 · 03-26-2011, 05:45 PM

People please agree to that (^) so i can show him !

cstraface · 03-28-2011, 07:51 AM

If you were willing to accept Grey...

There are number of tests on Tirerack (videos) that discuss this subject. One test in particular shows that AWD with All-season tires is NO good compared to RWD with winter set.

I had A4 Quattro with not so good high performance winter tires, and I feel that my 335i with Dunlop M3s is about the same as A4 was.

Your dad must not know the power of current traction control systems, especially the one thats used in BMWs, DSC. This system makes RWD bullet-proof in snow and rain if you have the right tires.

Of course if you spend another $1000-$1500 on winter set for XI, this would be even better, but XI with All-seasons if useless and dangerous to drive.

Grey interior with black console (so shift boots, arm rest, etc)

I ran 17" Blizzaks for a few seasons and yes they are incredible but I sold those and ran 18" all-seasons this year with record snowfall in Chicago and they were almost as good. "Useless and dangerous" only applies to the summer tires offered on the sport package equipped models.

I have one for sale with all qualifications except 6mt
