The BMW 335i’s Power Is Underrated

Started by Daniel Miessler · 7 months ago

It looks like the new BMW 335i that I’m getting has been seriously underrated — probably because they don’t want it to overshadow their current M3 offering. According to testing done by Automobile Magazine (not once but twice), the 335i is closer to 350 hors ... Continue reading »

  • I'm still pretty fond of this one, though I crashed it a few months ago (assuming I can embed an <img src...&rt; in the comment):



    Gotta love the rush of 0-60 in three seconds, 60-120 in about five, and being able to go from 0-70 and back to 0 in a city block. =)

    Anyways, hope you like the new ride. Not my kinda car, personally, but I've read your blog long enough to know that you're pretty passionate about BMW.
  • Guess I can't embed an image... anyways, that was http://www.jeremygaddis.com/images/yamaha.jpg if you're interested (post-wreck pictures at http://www.jeremygaddis.com/gallery2/v/yzf600r/, as well).

    By the way, Daniel, minor issue I just noticed... enter a comment, hit Submit, comment gets posted, but I couldn't post another comment without refreshing the page (textarea was "grayed out" as was the submit button). Not a big issue, but I think you like for things to work perfectly. Firefox 1.5.0.7 on FC6, BTW.
  • Ah, thanks man. I'll check it out.
  • Roll that bitch on 40-dubs and you will get all the phat ho's!
  • I loved my BMW while I had it. You'll definitely appreciate going from to a 33x versus a 32x, the difference is sizable and your very handy dynometer graphic shows what the Bavarian experience is.
  • someone needs to LEARN how to read a dyno chart. First of all, you NEVER have more power at the wheels than you do at the crank. So I knew this guy was on crack when he said 384 at the wheels and 348 at the crank. But besides that, if you click on the chart, it shows 284 (NOT 384) at the wheels. NO ONE else caught this???
