2009 Bmw 335i

I'm about to get one of these two: Used 2008 335i Coupe or M3 Coupe New 2009.

Used 2008 M3 (which has less than 12,000 km) is about $ 6,000 more expensive than a new 335i.

Pay $ 6,000 dollars enough?

What are the advantages and disadvantages of these two vehicles?

Thank you.

Do not listen to the first poster, he is ignorant and knows not what he speaks. First, the BMW engines are V6 they are straight 6s. Also the 335 has 300hp.

Now go to your question ...

The M3 has 414 hp and a V8 is small (4.0) It also has a redline of 8400RPM. Who is! It will sound much louder engine, the suspension will be much steeper and it will sometimes be uncomfortable. The M3 is a great car, but it will be more expensive to repair. The oil is more expensive and parts are well.

The 335 was lighter, it is more comfortable to drive and it is certainly fast. He has a twin engine turbo 3-liter still gets amazing gas mileage while being faster than most cars on the road. If you buy a new vehicle, then you do not have to worry about paying for any maintenance on the vehicle.

The M3 is the best car and this obviously will lead a lot more turn and it will be much more enjoyable to drive. But it costs more to maintain, it will be more uncomfortable to drive and it will bring more attention.

If it were me, I chose the M3, but thats just because I race the weekend.

Here is my suggestion, go test drive both and you will see that the 335 has more than enough power for you please. And you also notice that the M3 has more power than you can handle.

Enjoy your trip and let us know your decision!

Well, it depends on what kind of car you want.

M3 has 414hp V8. hard on gas, but its a fast car, powerful.
Insurance is probably much more, and as I said, the gas will be you. but they are amazing cars, I am a big fan of the M3 and M5.

the 335i has about 220 or 230 hp V6. a nice car, but it dosent have the power that the m3. its by no means low power, however, but it is not based on performance obiovusly the m3 is. better on gas and I think the insurance would be better.

It depends on the type of driver that you and your taste in cars. Some people also like having brand new cars!

Unless you intend to race again in 2008 335i has enough power to drive you to your destination. The biggest advantage is, of course, it is cheaper and you get the full warranty, maintenance-free over 4 years on it.

Ultimately, you need to test each and see if it makes a difference at all. And if you decide to go with M3 used, be sure to check the Carfax report.
