Yeah as a BMW owner I do have a few gripes as of lately....

I did get to drive an E90 last week as a loaner car, it's no 335, but the interior is basically the same.

I don't like the new interior compared to the E46. The power window controls are out of reach, the steering wheel controls suck, Cup holders are a joke, the turn signals are difficult to operate, and the dual temperatuer climate controls are kind of pointless. The list goes on and on.

As for the 335i, with that kind of HP and price tag, I am kind of disappointed that the car comes standard with 225 series tires. You have to pay extra to get the 245 series tires that a car with that kind of HP and price should come standard with!

I think I will be keeping my E46 ZHP until this transition in models changes once again.....
