In terms of exterior design, I much prefer my 335i M Sport to the styling of the S4. Perhaps I'm a rare enthusiast in today's Canadian market, since I prefer the benefits and simplicity of rear wheel drive.

No question that BMW seems to push the 328i (the volume seller) and Xdrive, while the 335i (especially M Sport) seems to have been ignored by their marketing.
