335i need back seats and at 6"2 there would zero room behind me in the one series
Voted 335, next be 135 then the Z
What about a e46 m3?
I'd go for the 335 but it would be the diesel variant. Can't beat the the 6 cylinder oil burner, effortless power delivery:wink:
135i for me, I love the shape and size they remind me of an E30.
335i would be my second choice although it would have to be a saloon for me.
135i hands down! Love these!!!

335i, find the 1ers too feminine.
I like the Z4 but need the option of taking passengers.
Went from a iS to a 335i myself, you won't be disappointed. There's a buying guide sticky in the 3 series section, highlight the known issues, injectors, coil pack, hpfp.
Had a loan of my cousin's 2011 335i Sport with the DCT box and it was incredible to drive. Not sure what year you're looking at though, I imagine a newer one like that on the newer system with the more efficient single turbo engine would be 35k plus?
What do you love, what car do you desire ? or aim to ? if you have no love for a car and want other peoples opinions I don't think the relationship will last
Lots of votes and feedback, cheers folks!
Seats not an issue for me thankfullyOriginally Posted by Gar

I drove modern diesels and definitely know what you mean about the wave of torque but just prefer a petrolOriginally Posted by E60Dave
Agree about the 1 feeling like 3 before it got bigger, that's what appeals to me about itOriginally Posted by KevinF

I'd say a low miler 2011 sport will be way over budget but will keep my eyes peeled for sureOriginally Posted by Don B
I love all 3 Jay just posting to see what people have to say about them. I like how the 1 is more compact and lighter and wonder if it'd be more fun to drive than the 3 but the downside is that it looks like a toy car especially when side by side with an e92. If there's little difference in how they drive I would pick the e92, it's classier and more grown up imo. Always had a soft spot for the Z4s especially the e85 and the 3.0 Si is the newest and ultimate (non-M) expression of it so had to be thrown in the mix!Originally Posted by Ford 2
Anybody drive a 1 and 3 with the same engine before?
