well I have been wanting one of these cars for awhile and finally pulled the trigger I figure maintenance might be higher than my usual Honda’s/Acura’s but its well worth it for how well rounded of a car this thing is its an 07 loaded with almost every option!! Silver ext with black dakota leather first impressions: I really dont think its the best handling or really the best of any department that we all judge a car from… but its is by far the most well rounded car I have ever owned. The steering is sharp when needed, the power is very linear and almost instant, the sports seats are absolutely fantastic! and the logic7 is by far the best stereo ive heard from a factory based car a pic from the dealer and hopefully a photoshoot soon [![http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7193/6954423251_2e1531d821_z.jpg](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7193/6954423251_2e1531d821_z.jpg)](http://www.flickr.com/photos/36272574@N04/6954423251/) [335i2](http://www.flickr.com/photos/36272574@N04/6954423251/) by [saxonbrian2](http://www.flickr.com/people/36272574@N04/) ---

Throw a tune at it and you’ll love it even more:) After my brief time with these cars, they’ve made me strongly consider ditching my e46 and Mustang…it really is a fantastic all around car. ---

Hey, nice car! Kinda looks like my '08 335XI 🙂 As for the Cobb AP… skip that. Get a JuiceBox 4 PNP. It’s dynamically programmed with any mods you do. Also, if you’re going to throw a tune at the car, make sure you get an aftermarket oil cooler. They didn’t come on the '07 model and were added half way through '08 due to overheating issues at the track events with upgraded cars. Besides that, I too love the Logic7 and Sport Seats. Do you have a manual/auto? If auto… paddle shifters? 🙂 Here’s mine… ![http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee399/CleanBaldy/Random/2010-10-08_15-31-00_631.jpg](http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/ee399/CleanBaldy/Random/2010-10-08_15-31-00_631.jpg) ---

ya custom tune that you can modify the timing and everything else seems like a much better option than a piggyback my key fobs stopped working last night so today i will spend the day trying to fix them, and then i have to tear off the front bumper and fix my headlights since they arent auto leveling FML lol ---

> [@Saxon](#): > > my key fobs stopped working last night so today i will spend the day trying to fix them, and then i have to tear off the front bumper and fix my headlights since they arent auto leveling FML lol FYI, you have to have the headlight switch in AUTO for the headlights to auto-level and turn with the car. I noticed that if you just have the switch at ON they won’t do it. What’s wrong with the fobs? ---

ya in the auto they dont do the up and down, i already checked them out and it seems that the drivers side adjuster is broken ☹ and the passenger side just has the ball out of the socket (seems pretty common) neither fobs will work at all, the central locking system still works and if i use the key in the drivers door it will lock/unlock all the doors still… fuse 56 and 57 are fine ---

My 07 has the factory oil cooler, it was built 12/06 actually. Getting a tune does wonders, ive had a few of them, they all work, but each person has their preferences. I needed to upgrade my stock clutch with my tune, so that told me enough about the power i am making… Downpipes do wonders too Feel free to pm me if you have specific question, after 75K miles i know this car pretty well.
