Exterior

Suh-weeeet! This car is smooth lines and sassiness on the outside, and it’ll definitely turn heads — especially when the top’s down. I don’t know about you, but when I’m a moody mess I like the idea that people are checking me out. I realize they’re really looking at the car, but let’s not deflate my dreams, OK?

The dual exhaust, low-profile tires and BMW’s signature sneering headlights added to the 335i’s cool factor. I thought the doors were extremely long and heavy, which did cause some whining, but if you reduced the door size then you’d have to revert to a four-door sedan, and that’s not nearly as much fun.

I really have no issues with the exterior. The hardtop has a seamless appearance and operates beautifully. My two boys loved the process of raising and lowering the top — it was like a little party in the Beemer every time. The car is so handsome it literally begs to be driven. It even offers bribes like comfy seats and sympathetic style. It’s a true gem.
