Hey Welker!
I know the issues. I traded a 3 series ('04 330) on the Camaro. What I've learned is pro-active maintenance goes a long way with these cars. Plus I have another year and 30k miles left on the factory warranty.
It's a 2012 335i M-Sport Hard Top Convertible. I was shocked at the difference in interior, technology, sound quality and overall build quality over my '11 Camaro. The 3.0 liter straight-six twin-turbo leaves nothing to be desired. The acceleration is effortless.
Many of you know I struggled with the trade-offs between handling and ride quality of the Camaro. No such issue with this rig. This thing handles like a dream, even with the factory 18" run-flats.
I loved my Camaro, and I will always be leery of the BMW. But man, it's really FUN to drive.
