there was a white 335 non convertible at that Carmax by your place - I'm telling you - paint those rims black - tune it - and tint the front windows - you will be thanking me. I don't remember which yr. it was BRC.

I can't recommend the 335i enough - for 'bang for you buck' - honestly - though it's discontinued (per Miles) - I'll still probably own another one. Love those things tuned - You wouldn't believe it - You'd dust posters like Hemi Ed and the other Charger heads - :P

I just think you go ahead and go 335 if you stick to 3 - that twin t's + 300stock WHP - The platform for tuning on a 335 is second to none - it is the fastest car for that money - and it's sickening fast after a tune - in fact - once they offer that on your 235 - I'd definitely look into it - it's SOOOO fun and changes your entire cars feel (in a great way.) Trust me. It may be tune-able right now, I'd check Burger Motorsports or Cobb Tuning.

Wow, that 750 is 30 inches longer than the 2 series and weighs 900 pounds more. The opposite of a coupe, but I'd be interested to know if that engine makes up for it.

also if any of you explore tunes - though more expensive around 2600 or there abouts - the Cobb Access port is awesome and feels more stock than Burgers JB4 - now Burger MS JB4 device absolutely will give you more pull - but the smoothness of the Cobb - is what I prefer - because it's still sickening fast.

No. Not at all

I've ruled out the Mustang. I just don't like the 2015 models. I've driven a Pony for 10 years, love it. But they screwed the pooch by ****ing with the design.

No it's not going there - I don't care if he approves or not - heck - I'm happy he is in to cars - whichever his flavor - I'm not one to tell anyone I'm right and they're wrong - I know I've loved all of mine. I'm not a huge American car fan

It is what it is. No big deal - I DO like true older American cars - a lot actually.

Some people arent hot on the looks, but everything else about the car has been improved. Ford stole a lot of good stuff from AstonMartin, and married it to the Mustang.

That being said, I have the largest pre-owned inventory in Missouri. www.machens.com

check me out~

I was looking at the 750 as a traveling car. We have Lincoln MKX. Figured that we could sell that get her the Mini-cooper that she wants and when we travel use the 750. Don't get me started on the stupid ass mini-cooper.:shake:

But the door jam may be a deal breaker anyway. And I want a damn sports car.

Simply Red 02-09-2015 08:23 PM
My first choice for you would be the 335 - but I'd go about 2009 with low mileage - they still look great and you won't be 'car poor' - but most DEFINITELY get it tuned - and I can guide you there - AT A MINIMUM please at least drive one. No offense home town.

Yeah, and as far as my strategy, I didn't follow it, so I agree the extra power is worth it... but, the budget dictates that strategy to some extent. If $45-50 in play, definitely look at the 6 cylinders.
