wantboost

looking at '06/'07 G35 coupe, '07/'08 BMW 335I COUPE VS '08/'09 AUDI A5 Which should i get? (which is fastest)

Fossil_TL

335i is definitely the fastest, why are you crossing shopping these while they are obviously not even in the same price range...

wantboost

335 30-33k g35 25-32k and a5 35k+ those are the prices here... wondering all around car...

ghttf

well if you want boost that would rule out the g35.



335i is fastest. they also have lots of fuel pump issues..google it.

i wouldnt call comparing these cars cross shopping.

SpiderX1016

A5 overall
335i for speed

but why no G37? or do you prefer the look of a G35 Coupe?

speedemon90

335i would definitely be the fastest

wantboost

yes i like the g35 better. I did some reading looks like the 335i has alot of issues. (no oiler coolers kinda odd ) and the a5 have vibration issues...
that sucks.

335i from those.

charliemike

335i is the fastest. The A5 3.2/2.0T isn't going to win any races.

Being biased, I'd much rather own the A5. I think it's better looking and while not as quick Quattro is very nice

godfather2

bimmer is quickest, quattro rules though

335i is the best in pretty much any way other than style.

335 is definitely faster, but I also like the looks of the A5 a lot more. And I the interior of the A5 IMHO looks much better than the 335 interior, but I'm sure no one here wouldn't enjoy owning either of the two.

Crazy Bimmer

Do it.

Dr. Colorado

A5. Like others posted, looks sexy, interior blows away the 335, and it's more unique. Testdrive it though, when I drove the S5 I was surprised with how front heavy it was. This is especially prominent with city driving.

If you go A5 rock the space grey exterior and the magma red interior. Ballin.

in terms of 335i, you should make sure you are well aware of this problem:

click for high pressure fuel pump problem. this problem will leave you stranded on limp mode in the middle of the highway...that is if your car even starts in the morning.


335i would be my choice, but this problem seems pretty common!

'01White3.2CL

isn't that Wong's car?? I believe that's his name, he goes to my school and is in my class. he has the m3 now, white on red with sunroof delete, so amazing are you guys on e90post?

Shift_Acura

335i hands down

Crazy Bimmer

Nope, its my old 335i that i had.

Yes im on E90post and M3post.

'01White3.2CL

so sorry to threadjack!! but I gave my response to this thread above. I wonder if you sold it to him then because he had that exact blue on cinnamon leather with those exact rims...he must have copied you then or bought it from you, was a beauty, but an M3 sedan is always an upgrade.

Crazy Bimmer

I traded the car into a dealership. An E90post member named Bubble4u or something bought it with the mods. Maybe his name was Wong but this guy lived in VA i think?

Last i heard he sold it though. Not sure who has it now. Be funny if the new owner is in IL now.

I'm surprised Scrib is recommending the 3er considering all of his issues...

AZuser

A5 for me. Sexiest of the 3.

Scrib

Yea, me too. But ignoring the issues, the 335 is still the front runner.

wantboost

the 3.2 is pretty quick isnt it?

Hapa DC5

3.2 is decent. If it's all about speed then get the 3er. It's boosted just like your SN. I'd rather have the A5 I just think it looks better and is more unique.

I'm not going to rice around racing everyone I just want a quick car that can get out of its own way.
