2009 BMW 3 Series 335i xDrive

The 3 Series is BMW's compact sports sedan, offered as a coupe, convertible, sedan, or wagon for 2009. It's the benchmark for driving dynamics in its class, with sharp steering and a balanced chassis that makes every drive engaging. The cabin is driver-focused with high-quality materials, though rear legroom is tight in the coupe and convertible. Expect higher running costs than a typical compact sedan, with premium fuel and more frequent maintenance visits. The 335i xDrive gives you all-weather traction you don't get in the rear-drive 335i, but it costs less than the track-focused M3. Its 3.0L I6 makes 300 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque, routed through a six-speed automatic to all-wheel drive, and returns 19 mpg combined.
