Several reasons...
The S5 (which is gorgeous BTW) will be around 8-10K more than the S4. As much as I wanted to love and buy the 335, I can't bring myself to do it. I may end up buying the S4. Can't anyone give me an idea of your purchase price - I found one post from February from someone who got around $2800 off MSRP on a new sedan. I'm shooting for a purchase price in that range. Especially since I'm a long time customer at this dealership.

Consistent with my impression of the 335 also.
Yeah, you can redo the suspension, but why do that when the S4 is just that much better IMO. The price of the BMW is excellent, but I just can't bring myself to buy it.

Planning on ordering Dolphin ... need interior pics!!!
I really need suggestions for interior. I had silver on my Northern Blue car and really liked it. Cooler in summer, too. Anyone have pics of the ash beltline? I saw a yellow car today with black and carbon fiber, and really liked it. Would appreciate pics of silver with birch or carbon fiber if anyone has some. Thanks!!

IC, well if you custom order yours, Im not sure youll have much room to negotiate...
but in any case carsdirect will give you a good price... They list the base s4 sedan with no options as 49,975 MSRP. $46,823 invoice, and $48,823 as the target price. This target price is something that carsdirect will sell you the car for. My brother has bought his 330i from them and highly recommended them...IMO I try to negotiate $1200-$1500 above INVOICE for a car like this...I bought mine CPOd so diff story there.... good luck

Try the 335i..not the 335iX...its different man. I love mine...my only beef is the lack of an LSD..I bought an aftermarket one..and have it already. Email me if you want more feedback.
