Fine, I'll be the first to say it: keep Z and get beater family car.

This is a Z forum after all people.

Betwn those two choices OP, i'd go for the 335is SEDAN.

Or perhaps a G37s sedan instead for less $...

People who are in the market for a 3 series won't look at a Mustang...

Some people are more responsible than others in how they treat their 335s with high-end tunes. I know 3 people who blew their motors, personally.

I've put kid seats into the back of coupes and I can assure you that it is absolutely no fun. You will be sick of it in about 2 weeks and ready to trade the coupe for a sedan.

used CTS-V Sedan hehe....

i'd get the 335 though of those 2

You can't go wrong.

sorry but how do you post on the main thread i cant figure it out haha

I want a Z · 05-13-2011, 01:26 PM

since my last test drive of the 370z, i had to cross it off my list. It just did not provide the comfort I needed.

I moved on and tested the 5.0 and 335is - the 335is is a beast. Great performance numbers (0-60 4.7 sec) and the exhaust note is heaven, it's what the stock Z should sound like.
It gets pricey with options, and reliability could be sketchy, but it's a really nice fun and comfortable car!

It will also be expensive to maintain. Bear in mind, BMW will pick up maintenance issues under warranty, but if they find damage or your fault in any way, they'll rape your wallet.

There is no doubt it will be more expensive in the long run - I really wanted a Z, but I could just not get comfortable in one on a long test drive.

The BMW 335i seats are awesome, leaps and bounds above the Z

Well, yeah, it's a lux coupe (or sedan). It competes more with the G37 in terms of comfort.
