Ease on the throttle or slam down the throttle, the engine is always ready to respond, and the noise…oh the noise. At full flight, the twin-turbo’ed unit sounds like its ready to sacrifice anything in its path. It literally sounds like a fighter jet in the midst of mid-air combat. The noise can he heard quite clearly both inside and outside the cabin, lending to BMW’s commitment to driver satisfaction.The 335i Coupe comes standard with a feature BMW call high-beam assist. The system is designed to automatically engage and disengage the high-beam lights without the need for driver input. The system can detect tail lights, along with oncoming headlights. The system worked relatively flawlessly during testing, but it seemed to get confused at times with reflective roadside signs and the red lights from parallel railway signals. It’s certainly a useful feature that takes the onus off the driver when it comes to dipping their lights.
BMW claims a 0-100km/h time of 5.5-seconds for the automatic 335i Coupe. After a couple of timed runs with the G-Tech, this figure was easily achieved. I believe the figure may be slightly understated, as it felt quicker than the stipulated time BMW has provided and this was backed up by the G-Tech’s readings of around 5.3-seconds.
The 3-series Coupe is available in three guises, the 323i, 325i and the most popular, the 335i. The 323i begins at $70,200, while the 325i can be had for $81,900. Finally, the 335i comes in at $108,900. A 6-speed ZF automatic gearbox can be optioned for an additional $2,800.
