Bougth 335i Drove M3 Audi has .9 % for 72 monthts

I just spent an interesting afternoon. I was flabbergasted when I found
out BMW had .9% financing for 60 months. So my wife grew tired of her Z4M and back to the 335i we go. They were able to get us a good deal that got us out of being upside down in the Z4M by 3.5K The 335i was loaded and had sat for 90 days and had incentive money.
Drove a M3 and it was nice but not much faster it seemed to me that the 335i. It looks WAY cool and they are having a hard time selling them. So if you want one even SMALL BMW dealers have them.

I stopped at the AUDI dealer and Audi has .9 % for 72 MONTHS!!! A year longer than BMW!! I looked hard at a A6 quattro but wifey said it looked too old fashioned. They had an RS4 there and WOW how it sounded when they started it up!! MUCH better sounding than a M3. there IS incentive money on the RS4!!!! The Dealer offered it to me for .9 % on the RS4 for 72 months and it was like 4500 for financing 75 K or something crazy like that. The point is there is some great financing out there right now and cars that would NEVER be discounted are with incentives behind it.

Got the 335 i home and it has a warped front rotor. The reason we got rid of the first one was it had problems. I thought they worked them out. I thought it was the hiway (99 is terrible and so is hwy 58 for grooves ) but I figured out by the time I got on hwy 14 that we had a bad front brake rotor. wobbles like hell when you touch the brake at 80 mph like braking when a truck pulls out in front of you on a 4 lane hwy. So on a truck BACK to bakersfield it goes.
So if you guys were thinking of pulling the trigger on RS Audis or
M Cars NOW is a good time to get some great deals.

There's no 0.9% financing on the m3 though. I also checked out the Lexus IS-F and no financing deals on that either.

And the 335i will be quicker with even minor mods! Good choice, I really like that car.

I have two RS4's left, and even better than the .9 financing is the $$$$ off MSRP you can get. PM me for details if interested.

I checked out a couple of local Audi dealers, and both told me there was a 9-10 month wait on the S5

O-Ace, see my for sale thread if you're looking for one. It's true, that generally it's a 9+/- wait. Oldguy, congrats again on the 335, now, how long before it gets some software to release it's full potential?

Facelifted 335i should be arriving soon, new front and rear lights are very nice and make 3er sedan look much better.

Well you got it already enjoy it.

I think they look hawt. You take your chances by waiting. I am not happy with the new 997 facelift. I am glad my GT3 is the old 997

Can't beat the 335 for Bang for Buck!

The m3 felt like you have to ring it's neck every time you drive it.
