I don't care anymore, nothings wrong with the car I'm just selling mine for an M coupe, it will be twice as fast both straight and in turns and 10x more reliable then the 335. 5 years of tested forced induction with no blown motors (from reputable shops, not fly by night jokes).

What does that have to do with supercharged reliability.

Or I could get the smaller lighter more nimble z4 M coupe with the same engine and do exactly the same thing...

With a 8 year old motor? No thanks.

That's why the M coupes/roadsters have terrible resale.

Enter the haters. How different do you think the new V8 is besides the 2 extra cylinders? There's no new technology in that motor. You say 8 years old, I say 8 years tested.

The resale is more to do with the styling and the fact that the car is a "Back to basics" car with limited technology. Most people (idiots) aren't happy their 55k sports coupe doesn't have electric power steering.

damn bro sry you had bad luck but damn the few people i know with a 335 only about 4 haven't had any issues.. i mean none.. i had a broken bulb holder and that's it.. with about 15k and no problems i am an extremly happy camper esp when my friend with a honda civic has been in the shop twice a month and has about 1/100th the equipment i have!!! you can get a bad car from a civic to a rolls.. it has nothing to do with forced induction.. and your engine in the 335 won international engine of the year again.. they look at the failure rates if there was an issue they wouldn't have won.. congrats on the m coupe.. i just beat one bad and i have the dinan stage 2 revision.. i mean by a few car lengths to 120.. i wouldn't think they are all that.. it isn't that much more powerful than a stock 335.. so your twice as fast thing is in the crapper.. but i would take an m3 with the new mdct trans any day over my 335.. mainly b/c of the engine note, exhaust note better interior better guages. the technology package... but damn my 335 with the dinan tune and the active steering is pure tits!!!

Fixed that post for you.

There is more technology in the n54 and n52 engines then there is in the new V8, just so you know. In both componentry and material construction.

The new V8 is the same old stuff, see if you can figure out which engine I'm describing: Double vanos, four valves per cylinder, multi port fuel injection, individual throttle bodies, high compression, high revving.

You need ? I'm guessing so.


Only important difference is the new V8s block is aluminum instead of cast iron (try to guess which one is stronger and can support more boost) making it lighter, oh... and it gets worse gas mileage.



You should probably keep it shut unless you know what you're talking about.
