I am not getting the point of this IMHO......

Not sure where you're buying your Bimmers, but a 335 is much more than $1600 in difference. I pay military price here in Germany and a 335 is more than $3K over the 328. Not to mention the effect the weight differential can have on handling. And fuel consumption is definitely not the same. Though I will say the 335 is a bit more fun.
