I keep thinking, is there really a reason to go for a 335 unless you really wanted a I6 or doing some extreme tuning a N20 is not capable of handling? It's like comparing a M3 to the M3 GTS. I'm pretty sure the price difference between the two (60k vs. approx 170k with conversion), you put towards the base M3 to make it as close to a GTS as possible and still save money.
So far no tuner has ever managed to match the output of a 28i using a 20i engine.
TBH there's absolutely no reason to go for a 335i over a 328i unless u must have the straight 6 sound or u live in Germany. The 328i in stock form is already faster than a lot of cars on the road & it has sweeter handling than the 335i.
