Cool, glad you love the car.

I'd be real curious what kind of MPG the car gets at a steady 50 mph...probably something crazy!

 

The instant mpg gauge says way over 50mpg @50mph (60 maybe?), but I'm not sure how accurate it is. the 42mpg is at 80mph, and measured by the trip computer over a short (16 mi) run.

 

Congratulations. I didn't think you would have any complaints with the way a 335 drives (IMO, it's better than the M3 in some ways, especially for street-use rather than track)....but 335s have been known for fuel-pump issues.

 

The HPFP issues are actually on the 335i, whereas I got the 335d, which is not noted for any such issues. And actually, even if it was an i, the 2011 would be the N55 (2010+ 3-series) engine, which has not had any notable HPFP issues, as opposed to the older N54 which was plagued with them. Mine has the M57 3L Twin-turbo Diesel (282hp, 430lbft according to wikipedia).

 

Nice choice.

 

My brother bought his 335di last summer and loves it! Treks from LA to SF on a single tank of gas! Too bad, we never got the triple turbo version that Europeans enjoy...
