Engine and price comparisons aside...
This was posted on Bimmerpost a few months back and the driver repeatedly states that the 335i tells you exactly what its going to do before it does it. Very predictable car in capable hands. The reviewers kept saying it was "tail happy" which I don't really agree with. Of course the back end will swing wide if you give it a boot full coming out of a corner, its a 300hp RWD car! Anyways, watch the video below, the driver does a much better job relaying the driving characteristics of the 335i.
