One of the easiest polls in a long time... I'd choose the S4 over a whole lot of cars, never mind this lot. I do like the R36 too.

Whatever the 335i is, the B3 is better
I consider it a bridge between the 335i and the M3, with emphasis on luxury and exclusivity.

Alpina for me please



Eats the S4 raw !

Exactly my thought. It's newer, faster, better looking, and a whole other things.

BMW just announced a performance 335i up to 326hp ,this is just shows how good job Audi did with the S4 that the king of segment got beaten and BMW is picking things up with more power.

Aside from C63/M3 the S4 rules the segment now,so clear..

If BMW took S4 seriosly they would offer a LSD for 335i and non runflats. 335i is still having 306hp and the extra power will cost you extra money. 20 hp is weak extrapower and will only help in straightline. The engine is capable of a lot more power than only 20hp.
Luckily there are tunings companies that offer a lot more extra power.

PS 326hp is the exact power output thats standard for the new BMW 740i.

Standard 335i is the logical choice, better base price, more fuel efficient and cheaper to own than the others. But if money is no object my choice is Alpina B3. Alpina is more exclusive, more power (0-100km/h in 4.6 sec and 0-200km/h in 17 sec), non runflats and equipped with a proper LSD. I also prefer the design instead of S4 and R36.

When I see the pics of the standard 335i posted from the test it surprises me how better it looks than the others. The facelift did miracles to E90. I think I like it better without the M-package.

-No trust BMW only released that power extra package just to make the 335i looking infront of the S4.
-Yes the engine can be tuned for more power but won't be as reliable as a stock one,we all heared about reliability problems of tuned 35i engines.

S4 rules for now at least when MB freaking decide to give the C350 more appropriate engine
