Some people claiming to have BMW calendars say the turbo is definitely out.

So far no one has been able to verify either way on this point. You seem certain in your post. Do you have any sources you can cite that it definitely will be turbo?

Well, I'll never give up my sources, but I can tell you that they are BMW employees, not dealers, at the corporate level. Info on the 335 will be released as soon as December/Janurary. BMW is launching a new car every month for the next several months.

gives no mention of a 335, but plenty of other info...

it is from suppliers, it's not completely accurate but gives you a time frame as to what happens when.

Rumor has it the 335 will debut in the coupe. Do your source(s) say the same? If so will we see the 335 e92 at NAIAS (1/2006), Geneva (3/2006) or New York (4/2006)?

Yes, the coupe, as to what show, all I know is that it's 1st Q, but likely either Detroit or Geneva.

THAT is NOT an official document... and is not a reliable source in any way.

Traceaz · 11-12-2005, 10:33 AM

I'm waiting on the 335 E92 as well, hoping for a Summer/Fall 2006 release, or sooner!

BLACKICE · 11-12-2005, 11:46 AM

Mine will b Jet Black!

...with all the trimmings of course!

chazmtb · 11-12-2005, 01:15 PM

Waiting for more definite info too. Not in a hurry, but anxious.

E90-4life · 11-12-2005, 01:17 PM

And I guess speed freak is some sort of authority on BM? I don't think anyone here said the document was offical, dont' forget to press your deflate button...

That was actually quite funny. With all this new information... I simply wanted to make sure we were all walking the straight and narrow.

Well said.

I was planning buying in fall of 2006 anyway so this falls perfect for me. Also i dont think you should wait for it, if u are about to buy one now. Because if u want the latest, you will allways be waiting, after the new engines come out, u will get a glimse of the refresh/facelift, and you will be like oh i will wait for that, and then mayb another hp boost comes and you will wait for that. And then the a new 3 series model comes out and you will want to wait for that.

Oz · 11-12-2005, 06:34 PM

I'm waiting for the 338 or 340 down a few years...

Eventually the 3 series will no longer exist as the numbers creep up to the 400's.

NaTuReB0Y · 11-12-2005, 09:23 PM

I'm waiting for the 350............Z

england1987 · 01-20-2006, 10:27 PM

I also am waiting for a 335i. I am going to try and order one A.S.A.P. I cant wait, which is bad because I am one of the most impatient people alive. NOT a good combination. I love the idea of a turbo 3.

stressdoc · 01-21-2006, 12:28 AM

Maybe ours will be on the same boat over. I plan to drive mine as far and as fast as I can on a euro delivery first though...
