Thanks for your opinion.
Many mags get things wrong, and then sometimes they get something right.
As always on this "new 3" issue, I'm waiting till the actual cars are released to know what BMW will do.
However, we're getting closer to the rumored release times, so the coming info. may actually be closer to the truth.
Afterall, I believe orders for the new coupes start in June?

I'll hold to the 335i being an additional model not a replacement for anything.

Production for the E92 starts in about 60 days, so I would think there will be some info coming out within a few weeks.

the waiting is driving me CRAZY!!!

Hey Rich, you must be pretty happy with the news that seems to say that the 330 won't be replaced.

Nothing set in stone....maybe its better if its replaced, IF the price is high on the 335. Then there will be many in the used car market that will want a used 330 for a good deal less than a new 335.

I'm fed up with giving a sh*t anymore....

True. We're pretty much all on our own, for now.

Finally some photos that do not look ugly. I guess huge wheels are must for coupe.

JamesHKim87 · 03-30-2006, 02:20 AM

im sorry if this was answered before but i was wondering if the 330i would change ANY way in 2007.

AndOJones · 03-30-2006, 04:11 PM

anyone ordering this 335i yet?

bmwnewbie · 03-30-2006, 05:45 PM

Sedan looks sexier. Gotta keep telling myself that to not get rid of this 330 for the 335.

drkeng · 04-03-2006, 11:13 PM

What color did they use? It almost looks like an Alpina blue. Wonder if Interlagos blue will be available?

wyrm11 · 04-03-2006, 11:26 PM

Supposedly Ultramarine is the blue that was originally planned to be available for the e90, but at the last minute, BMW decided to reserve it for the e92.

carnuts3 · 04-04-2006, 02:33 PM

Do what I'm doing - get a 330i now and wait for the E90 M3 to come out. Then test drive the M3 and 335i and get the one that's right for you.
