VIDEO: New 2007 BMW 335i coupe-inside and out

Various drive-past shots and pans on country and coastal roads leading through a volcanic landscape, various drive-past ... all shots and pans on winding mountain roads, and various interior shots...

Video wise it wasn't that bad. I would have liked to have seen more of the interior, but I am probably being picky.

Hate me for saying it, but BMW did a good job of keeping the styling 'safe'. People are going to be eating it up and trading in their last generation coupes...though I do like the interior of the current coupe better. iDrive or not.

I am a fan of quad pipes for a M3 or 'tuned' version, but the dual pipe just doesn't seem to fit to me. I would rather go with a single, and slightly larger exhaust.

I think the pssss hsss is left off on purpose. I believe I remember reading that about the car. It's not a boy racer like the STI. 
 
Regarding the interior uhhh looks like the E90 interior to me. What's the big deal?

Redwood- The interior is FAR SUPERIOR to the E90 sedan. BMW replaced plastic on the climate controls, start button, steering wheel, idrive, doors etc with the 6-series derived dark gloss trim.

They changed the window controls by moving them closer to the driver, fattened up the steering wheel and changed the design for the coupe, changed the center armrest, added the supercool interior mood lighting on the doors, added the seat belt assist, added the run-through center console with vents and storage in the back plus they added 2 different interiors (Espresso Brown and Merlot Red) and different trim options than the sedan.

All in all.....wouldnt everyone want this interior over a E90 sedan?

Plus those tailights on the coupe are 90% better looking than the sedans and you get 19inch rims on the Sport Package.

The Coupe is the 3-series to buy.
