I love the car. I ended up with a 335i after I returned an 08 CTS.

It is a long story, but to summarize. I had the CTS with 18" wheels, at 60 MPH the steering wheel had a shimmy. The dealership tried to adjust, but it was still there. After talking to GM, who said "it’s a characteristic of the car with the 18" wheels for the first few thousand miles." I told the dealer, if I knew that, I would have never bought the car. They unwinded the deal, like I never owned the car.



They also own a BMW dealership. The sales manager of the Caddy side took me over and introduced me to the general manager of the BMW side. A few hours later I drove off in the 335i.



I thought GM hit a home run with the CTS and I still like the look, but the 355i is far quicker and driving is awesome AND the wheel does not SHIMMY!



Thanks for asking.



Scott.

I think its great that alot premium car manufacturers have AWD, it use to only be Audi.



Only need RWD in Texas.



What options are you looking at getting?

Thank you for the interior pictures, looks very good. I like the wheels also, must be quite easy to clean compared to some other BMW wheels I`ve seen.
