Just received my 435 over the weekend

Ordered my car with David From Steve Thomas BMW, had a great experience and love the car. It came on a truck Saturday night. I cleaned up yesterday and here are some pics as well as some pics of my car next to my dads 428.

Enjoy!

comparison

looks great.

How are the 19s compared to your dad's 18" wheels? Did you learn anything from your dad's choices that influenced your choices?

I'm preparing my order and going through the options. Planning the 19" wheels, but had some problems with wheel bulges on my e92 18" wheels (3 out of 4 of them).

I haven't noticed any difference in the ride, I prefer the look of the 19's as well. I ordered my car in November way before my dad purchased his car. It was just a coincidence we got the same car.

Hi Matts435coupe. Congratulations to you and your father. Both of your cars look good. How does your 435 compare to your previous 3 Series coupes? Also do you have any interior photos for your car or your father's?

Powerwise same as my 335's but not as quick as my 335is with the n54, otherwise superior in every other way.

I wish I could take credit for that, but that was there when I parked the car. Walking back I noticed and thought it would make for some cool pictures. I would never do that lol

I see you owned an S5 as well. How does it compare to the 435i ? What made you go back to BMW ?

I had 2 S5's loved the looks of the car, but the power and fun wasn't there. The car was super heavy with the V8 and quattro and didn't handle as well. Since I sold my S5's I have had 3 BMW's so it has been a couple of years and I love being back in a BMW, I think all this car needs is performance exhaust, tune and maybe a shorter shifter, the shifting points are fine, the knob is just a little high for my tastes.

Haha, I wanted it, but once he got it, I stuck with the BSM. But now that we both have them and they are side by side, I think I actually prefer the BSM/CR combo.
