Funny little story

I thought that I would share this short little story. So yesterday, my roommate came home with a brand new 335i coupe (white, red leather, fully loaded). A few of us go out to check out his new ride. Very beautiful car but not so sure I like in that color combo. Anyways, so 2 hours later, our neighbor comes over and he tells us he just got a new car. We walk out and see a black G37s! haha... He got so much attention on the G from even random people in the parking lot and street! Way more than the than the 335 got! Both nice cars but I cant wait to get my G37s in march.... mmmm....

BMWs are kinda common here in SoCal. Seems like every other car I see in Long Beach is a BMW.

I always take a second glance when I see a G35/G37

It sounds like I'd like his 335. That's the exact color combo I'd go for, in that car.

Congrats to him for picking a car he likes, and your neighbor for getting one he likes

Thumbs up

This story speaks the truth, a G is definitely more distinguished...Companies like BMW & Mercedes have sooo many similar lookin models out there and variations of numeric alphanumeric model numbers that are more difficult to keep track of - so if you think about it 3/5 of the quick glances a 335 attracts will be just a brief blur in your memory as "just another 3-series" and not that distinguished from a 328xi, 329xil, 330xxx, 332xjxjx, 338xp, 335, etc. lol. You get what I'm sayn though. If you want to get the same number of looks on a Bimmer that you would a G-Coupe you would have to spend closer to 100k. Let's face it a Bimmer looks Bimmer - but there's so many 3-series Bimmers that look alike that even the Bimmer look is becoming plain. Holla.

G looks sweeeeeeet!

actually the E90 M3 is breathtaking...no one will mistake it as just a regular 3 series....

Yeah - I forgot to mention the exception - the M-Series.....The E46 M3 is my favorite the Double Vanos 333HP one.....in black or blue...or even white....what a beauty....but even a fully decked out M3 is gonna run you a good 10-15 grand more than our well equipped G Coupes....the new 335i falls short of that M legacy in my opinion it's an "almost" car....ALMOST an m3 but doesnt get the cigar. The G-Coupe is fine the way it is and not almost anything else. The new E90s are still takin a bit to grow on me but it is pretty sweet!
