Thanks for the feedback guys!
Justin: I was initially thinking 328 for the same reasons: fuel economy and similar performance. But when I did what you did in your drive vid, I pretty much knew that I was ordering a 335. Looks like we'll be ordering similar cars too: EBII 335i M-Sport FTW!
shoptb: Enjoy your drive! As I noted above, the Benz was a pleasant surprise. At my event, the event staff kept asking if anybody in line wanted to take it or the Lexus and that poor little Benz really wasn't getting any love, so I took it for a spin.
Matt: Sah-weet coupe! Can't go wrong with TiAg, and those Type 44 rims are classics!
