I recently bought a 335xi coupe. I was looking at replacing my stolen 04 STi and was looking for an awd sports car, and both the STI and EVO were on my list, as well as the car I bought and the S4. In the end though, I was not impressed by either the new EVO or new STI and did not like the driving position in the S4, so I bought 335xi. Since the EVO has problems with peddles (and warranties) and Subaru has issues with its 2.5 liter turbo motors, my decision has been looking like a pretty decent one. Regardless, I have yet to see EITHER the new STI or EVO on the street, and I have no regrets over my purchasing decision.

Edit: Actually I have one regret, I regret that the GT-R was not in my price range.

Anyway, the car looked bulky as hell and the back end is just terrible, I still say EVO IX FTW.

well, I don't know you do I?

I would really like to take an X for a test drive... just to see.

I don't think I'd actually buy one. I think I'd rather spend extra money I'd have to pay for the car on upgrades for the car I've got, and some track time.

It was on the street. 1-3rd gear. I have an FPgreen though so he didn't have a chance. As soon as I passed the school zone cross walk I was like 4 cars ahead of him.
