It doesn't put that much stress on stock components, boost isn't even increased that much
It's like getting a WRX tuned and throwing an exhaust on it...cheap reliable power

Thatsfunny I've been saying that for a long time. They are less reliable and even under warrantly you will be close with your service associate at the dealership. BMW and Mercedes made up the entire idea of the high end waiting areas in deaslership service araes because they make unreliable cars and for a person to spend that much money on a car and to have to keep taking it in for the stupidest stuff, they had to make up for it. Also who do you think started the loaner car programs. It was the german car companies. again its just my opinion but the german car companies like the american car companies keep thinking that they are going to be able to keep selling cars based on their old reputations of 20 yrs ago. todays consumer is far to smart for that, thats why lexus,infiniti and acura continue to take luxury car market share
Did you miss the graph above?
Oh and can you provide some facts regarding "thats why lexus,infiniti and acura continue to take luxury car market share" ?

FWIW, former E36 owner here. I don't hate the brand, you won't see me bash bmw, but have hands on experience with reliability issue. I loved my E36 and would still be driving it today if it was up to the task. At first the 335i seemed tempting, its too bad the E46 M3 engine never found it's way into an E90 . . .

Well like he said..it's all what your going to be using the Sedan as opposed to the convertible for. Kids? Married? Work? or just in general.
I went from a 350z which was too small to a 06 IS350...which I am not having that much fun with....to an 08 335 Coupe I just ordered.
just my 2cents.
