GMAST - thanks. Concerned about the HPFP issues, so I would not have pulled the trigger if it wasn't Certified Pre-owned. I test drove a 335 about 4 years ago and it felt like my E36M3 but newer. I really wanted a 911 but just can't justify it with a kid. Next best "reasonable" choice as far as I can see. MB
Don't worry about the HPFP unless it's off warranty. As with many of these cars, enjoy them until the maintenance warranty expires, then make it someone else's problem. Many of the 335s can go the distance without the HPFP issue. A friend of mine had ~70k miles without a hiccup. BMW did it right with your particular model. Enjoy.
Fantastic. Absolutely love it. I recently picked out a CPO 2010 E90 for my parents over Christmas. Black on black, had 18,000km on it at pickup. Turns out I drive it more than they do, wish it was a manual.
I JUST realized this is the first car I have ever owned that was built past the year 1999. I guess I am more old school than I thought...
Looks good Nick. There is a guy in the 348/355 section who really likes black, I think he would like it....
My daily drivers are an S5 and a BMW Z35I. I haven't taken pictures since they are just normal cars. The S5 is a V8 6 spd manual. It's a nice car to drive, modern Audis are very good cars. The BMW has a nice inline 6. It's my first BMW and I'm not impressed. The motor is OK. it has a lot of power and torque. I've got the BMW double clutch in it. I've driven manual cars for 20+ years. I finally went with the DCT because I drive in traffic quite a bit. I left a 2009 997S for the BMW. The BMW DCT has been a complete disappointment. You have to drive it in manual. The F1 in my 355 is better than a brand new BMW DCT. You never know what it's going to do. I'd rather have 15 year old Ferrari F1 that is predictable than state of the art BMW DCT. I may buy another BMW as a daily driver since they are so cheap, then again maybe I'll get another S2000... best shifter ever, bar none.

After driving just about every car brand there is though BMW is not that great. The best thing about it is that it's cheap. To me it's the Lexus of German cars. Lexus makes cars for people who don't like cars. BMW is better but they make cars for people who think they like cars but are wrong. Mercedes is for people who like cars that are good but boring. Porsche is OK but they can't make a clutch that is as good as Audi.

You can do it yourself, but I'd suggest getting a shop to do it. it can be removed in 15 minutes. I kept mine on during warranty visits at the dealer without any issues.
