Scrib, when you do post your 335 impressions please mark the post with a warning or use white text. Some of us still have to drive TSX's.

Thanks

Yea, I got the stomach gurgles and I still have to wait until tomorrow.

I did call my dealer and already got on the service calendar for the 29th to get the oil changed.

Well, if he's going to change the wheels... suspension is also probably in order.

4 wheels fit just fine in the 335i with the seats fold down.

Oh Scrib, no sport package? What was the price on this badboy?

You know... I DO have a full Bilstein PSS9 Coilover system for the 335i sitting at my place. Only 5-6K miles on them. Would go PERFECT with Loseit's wheels.

No sports package... It terms of priority, it wasn't top of the list.

Don't the sport seats also have a bolster that can be pulled out for supporting your legs?
