What you're saying in other words:

"It's stupid to spend 1.3k to upgrade the sound on your 328i, because for another 4k you could have gotten a 335i. And if that additional 4k actually matters to you, well then you're just a broke person who's reasoning I don't understand".

A) I've heard a 328i with performance exhaust, and a 335 with stock. Personally prefer the 328 with perf exhaust at higher revs. So no, just upgrading to a 335 would not be the same as installing the performance exhaust on a 328.

B) For a lot of us here that additional 4k is a size-able chunk of money. Does that mean we're broke or poorer than you or whatever? No, it just means we have different priorities.

Well said. It annoys the hell out of me when people make remarks about "upgrading" to a 335. I purchased a 328xi M cause that's what i felt was sufficient for my needs and wants. If i didn't have a wife, kids, and a mortgage, guess what....i would've been driving an M5. LOL
