335I loaded vs Z4 M

I was just looking around and noticed that they are in similar price range.
~50,000.
I don't think there's anything else that I can think of that's close to 50k range and performs well, look good, and etc.

Any input is welcome. I will probably end up ordering something beginning of next year unless something happens.

I am jealous! I would love to be in your position I would without a doubt pick the 335! I love that car and it definitely has potential. Good luck!

yeah, no more g35 coupe for me!
it was a fun sexy looking car.
cant afford m3 (I wish) nor anything above 60kish range

i dont know much about A5 (s line) nor S5...as far as performance and price are concerned...it definately looks nice though!

Z4 M Coupe gets my vote. Rare, looks good and performs well.

z4m=ugly

335i-sleek, understated and a good looking car

but...i know at my dealer hear in princeton, nj they were selling the 06 z4m's coupes and verts for well below sticker. z4m roadster was ~57 was going for 48,XXX. so thats prob the better deal, but still is an ugly car. go 335

Ditto what Greg said ^^^^^^^^

If you want an M car, get an E46 over that thing (Z4). I know it performs nicely but damn is it U.G.L.Y.

yea the z4m is an abomination! the performance over an e46 m3 isnt even that much anyway. cant get over the looks. if you really want a roadster type car like that, buy a boxster s or cayman s, they are faster, handle, brake, and steer better, and are sexy cars.

i prob wont ever buy a bmw unless its an M, but i would def give the 335 serious consideration, its that good.

You guys are crazy if you think Z4 is 'ugly', esp compared to a sedan.

well i hate convertibles first of all. (sorry for those of you who love convertibles).

I was "." this close to buying E46 m3 (2006) but i made a wrong choice...
i wish i can still get E46 m3

These two cars aren't very comparable. I'd go drive them first.

The Z4 is not at all practical, but is an absolute blast to drive.
I haven't driven the 335i yet, but I imagine the power is more than adequate. It just won't handle like the Z4M.
