I have the choice of a new 2lt/rs, possibly used 1ss, or a 2007-2009 335i coupe. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, anybody own a 335i and a camaro, tell me which one you like better?

2010 SSRS · 10-18-2012, 11:44 PM

1SS, get it now

Your 335i is a more refined vehicle for fancy dinners and wine tasting. The Camaro 1SS is a straight up muscle car for kicking ass. (1LT/RS w/ manual trans and you're good too)

Dtrimpi87 · 10-18-2012, 11:48 PM

1SS and dont look back

2014camaro · 10-18-2012, 11:50 PM

I really want the camaro!!!! Sadly, if I get thee SS there will be a wait of about 6-7 months will it be worth it?

My friend had a 335i....I think he spent more time fixing it than he did driving it.

Biscuitpie · 10-19-2012, 01:25 AM

335 over 1SS. Barely slower especially with a tune and downpipe plus I hate cloth. I don't understand how anyone ever has to ask 2LT vs 1SS. Even though I said I hate cloth the SS is just so much better. These are just my opinions please don't get butthurt and take this offtopic because you don't agree.

Also why are you going to have to wait several months? If you can get a used 335i why not a used 2SS?

OzzySS · 10-19-2012, 02:25 AM

depends what you're looking to get out of your car...myself, i prefer the muscle car (personally, i would choose 2LT over 1SS even though i went 2SS/1LE for mine), but i won't deny that a 335 is really nice and can throw down some power.
choosing between 2LT/1SS...all you gotta do is decide whether you want some fuel economy and all the trappings, or if you're cool without the bells and whistles and more muscle. have you test driven the different models yet? the 2LT really isn't a slouch either...

JJ#48Racing · 10-19-2012, 02:30 AM

1SS. Easy decision.

Nor*Kan SS/RS · 10-19-2012, 09:12 AM

1SS, take it and don't. Look. Back.

CHEV400 · 10-19-2012, 09:15 AM

Don't go with the BMW. I had one for 3 months and ditched it after so many issues and nothing is cheap to fix. My also had a crazy water leak. Go with the ss

ROD_SS · 10-19-2012, 09:35 AM

My friend is have problems with his 335i. I like bmw, and own one too. Personally, I would go with the 1ss

Berean · 10-19-2012, 09:39 AM

mattsfirstSS · 10-19-2012, 09:54 AM
