2011 BMW 335is – New auto of BMW : While BMW has yet to make an official announcement on the all-new 335is Coupe and Convertible, the Bavarian firm uploaded the first official photos of both models on its public website. The 335is, which is believed to be offered initially only in North America, closes the gap between the 300HP 335i (306HP in Euro spec) and the 414HP M3 (420HP for the Euro model).
As we’ve already informed you from our previous post, a leaked spec sheet from BMW’s Canadian division reveals that the 335is makes use of a tweaked version of the outgoing 335i’s N54 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline six – and not the single-turbo N55 engine of the facelift 2011 335i.
The 335is’ straight-six pumps out 322 horsepower (+22HP) and 332 lb-ft of peak torque (+32 lb-ft) with 369 lb-ft available temporarily on the over boost function.
Power is transferred to the rear-wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox or an optional seven-speed double clutch transmission.
We assume that like the new Z4 sDrive35is, the 335is model will get suspension calibrations for a sportier ride.
Naturally, the new 335is models get an M Aerodynamics package that includes unique front and rear bumpers as well as specific 18-inch alloy wheels and shadow trim for the double kidney grille, window surrounds and the dual tail pipes.
We expect an official release with more details to be released shortly.

Interesting… Do you think this trend will continue? I would love to hear your thoughts. Best!
Most people can get those rims on the E46 having the sport pkg. As for the tail light changes, this is the inexpensive tactic of providing a small refresh in line with its latest design to appea individuals into choosing a younger model year. They do it on a regular basis with the front skirt and taillights. The E46 did not obtain its taillight revise until the late 2003 models I think.
