    Yay Doug reviews a car I’ve actually owned! And one I had extensively researched before purchasing, a few things to note: -I was surprised at Doug’s non-explanation of the Power button. It’s for the sensitivity of the throttle pedal. Its doesnt actually effect engine power at all, just makes the throttle more sensitive and makes the throttle map’s 100% WOT at say only 3/4 of the pedal travel compared to being at the very end of the pedal travel with it in Normal. It can also be configured for your M Mode so pressing the M button on the wheel will activate it along with your other settings (dampers, servotronic steering, DCS MDM) -Surprised Doug didnt mention the carbon leather trim. It’s a desirable option for buyers. Cloth seats are very rare too, its not part of some ‘enthusiast’ package like Doug mentioned, but most of these cars just came with the Novillo leather (mine had red). -You can get the adjustable dampers outside of the Competition package, it was part of the tech package and even available al carte in the early pre LCI years iirc. The only difference with the Competition pkge ones was the Sport setting was retuned and now was dynamic like the Comfort and Normal settings. -Don’t think that’s a rear armrest Doug. That piece pops out to allow the ski pass through (car has cold weather package), the little panel behind it is a door that opens into the trunk. You can see the little door when he drops the seats when he’s going over the trunk quirks. -Doug kept mentioning the V8 but didnt mention its crazy redline of 8,250 rpms! How do you not mention that! This small V8 is a revver and not torquey, I’m glad he did mention its characteristic of being high revving and not having grunt down low though. Also surprised he didn’t point out the warmup gauge around the tachometer that slowly reduces from red to yellow into the redline when you cold start the car as a quirk! -He mentions the steering, it feels great cause its hydraulic. Last M car to have it, the M3/4 after this one have electric steering. -This particular car also has the enhanced premium audio option, you can tell from the silver rings around the speakers (compared to black on the base audio) -In case anyone cares, mine was a 2011 Space Grey Competition Package (ZCP) with 6MT :)

    I truly believe this era of turn signal was superior in design, but people unfortunately did not know how to use them. There were two "levels" of signaling like in any car. if you pushed it lightly, the signal would blink three times to indicate say a lane change on the highway. If you moved it all the way, the blinker would stay on until you completed your turn; also like any other car. What people had a difficult time with was turning it off because they would push the stalk all the way in the opposite direction when they really only needed to bump it to the "3 blinks" level to deactivate it. With some practice you see the reasoning behind the design as it does not click back into place when you complete a turn, but rather remains silent and gives the car a more premium feeling. I wish more manufacturers had caught onto this trend and allowed more people to become accustomed to it.

    BMW really was smart in putting their experimental turbocharged engine in the 335i instead of the M3. For all the praise the N54 got and still gets due to being a highly capable engine, reliability issues would’ve really tarnished the M3 had that engine been used instead of the V8. I own a modified N54 335i, driven e9x M3s and even though people say a modified 335i is an “M killer”, I say that the M3 is another beast in its own right

    @@Akac3sh honestly, it all boils down to the direction in which you want to take the car. The e9x M3 comes from the factory with basically everything better performance wise, except for the low-end torque which is still basically not a big deal considering that the M3 can rev way higher than a 335i. But, if you spend enough $ modifying a 335i, then you can pretty much reach beyond M3 levels of power. That said, you have to consider that the M3 has better suspension, braking, and other systems that the 335i doesn’t have, and these are expensive to upgrade. Both cars have reliability issues that need to be addressed (rod bearings for the M3 and hpfp, lpfp and water pump for the 335i, for example). If you’re willing to put big money into a 335i, you can make well above 700whp and have a track car. If you don’t want to spend that much money and still have a powerful car, the M3 is more than capable

    Being from SoCal, Doug can be excused for not understanding the separate climate control for the center vent. If your from somewhere with really cold winters and your cold to your bones, you want to jump in your car and crank the heat. After awhile though you might start feeling warmer, but if you start feeling drowsy, what better than to blow some refreshing cold air on your face, while keeping your feet warm. It's a safety feature -- keeping you awake.

    The center armrest is split in two because the driver side can move forward and extend itself. Also the point of that extra manual dial on the climate control is so that you can get cold air blowing on you while the car is keeping the temperature warm by blowing hot air from the other vents, like on those days where you are cold, but you feel uncomfortable having too hot air being blown in your face.

The switch goes "half way" for 3 blinks and also this cancels the blinkers if you turn them fully on (switch all the way for one direction). Out of all the cars I've driven, I actually prefer BMWs design. Those blinkers are perfect for highway cruising and switching lanes and really easy to get used to.

    As a little summary about the quirks that might be too confusing: 1. Turn Signals The turn signals are actually quite easy to understand. Push once lightly is 3 (or one, configurable in the on board computer) signals, pushing it lightly and holding it activates the indicators for as long as you are holding the lever and finally, if you push the lever beyond that little resistance it activates it until a certain steering angle has been reached and returned from. Deactivating the permanent signaling is achieved by either pushing it to, but not beyond the resistance, the opposite direction or just tap it lightly in the same direction Once you use them accordingly, they are exactly what you need in every situation. 2. Secondary Climate Control Dial That dial in the center that He thinks is overriding the settings done in the main AC cluster is actually only controlling the front fan's temperature. The overall temperature that is set will still be targeted by all the other thousands of vents in the car. The reasoning behind that is, that you might want to have a litte more hot or cold air blown towards you. Example: An extremely hot day. You get into your BMW and turn on the AC. But instead of being blown with frozen air you might want to have a mild breeze that won't freeze your eyeballs. Turn that dial towards hotter air (red). Another example: An extremely cold day. Same thing, you want things to heat up quickly and the climate control does so by blowing very hot air into the cell. You might hate that and want air that is just a little lower than what otherwise would give you first degree burns. Turn that dial towards colder air (blue) If you are fine with how the AC and climate control works: Set it centered. It's a drivers preference thing, not an overall climate control. So yes. It's brilliant. :) 3. Fond of the Coupé (A coop is where chickens live.) While it is true that there is not a lot of nice things left to whoever has to sit back there, but he completely washes over the fact, that the rear passengers actually have the same climate bias dial as the front row. Also there are not a lot of coupé style cars from that era who even had vents back there. As someone who owned both versions (E90 325d LCI and E92 335d LCI, both maximum spec) the back seats in the coupé are actually more comfy than those in the sedan since they are a bit more like a bucket seat. Probably to get the rear passengers lower down since the roof lowers "quicker" than in the sedan. However I cannot confirm that personally since I'm very tall and also the owner. I will never sit back there. It is true, that the moving slide is a bit annoying if someone has to leave the back row rather quickly, but it prevents those buffoons from scratching your entryway with their belts or purses or whatever shit they think they need. As he said though, if you plan on taking more than one person with you on a very regular basis, consider the E90.

    Another good use for this was how I'd use it. I'd play golf in late November or early December. It would be freezing, but my core would stay warm from all the activity. The feet however would freeze. So in the car I'd set it to as hot as it gets to blow on my feet. Then I'd also regulate the temp on the top to blow coldish air so I don't pass out from a heatstroke :D it's pretty brilliant indeed. Btw this would be in my e63.. The way that thing is set up, you basically get not a dual zone climate control but almost like a 2.5 or 3 zone climate control :D very good stuff

I never understood why noone does this - basically 2 zone climate control, but instead of horizontal split you get vertical split. It makes sense, because heat rises, you want different temperature up on your face than near your legs. And in summer, your legs are cold when you have ac on while the sun makes your body hot

    the turn signals in the E90's are really awesome once you figure out how they operate. I had the mset up to do one blink for each short lever movement, and consistent blinking for a full movement up or down. you do one short movement in the direction you're signaling to turn it off. It is weird at first but after you get used to it, you kinda wish all turn signals worked like this. And the tactile feel is really awesome.

    Doug, you've commented on the center vent override before on another review and I didn't comment, but after seeing it mentioned again I now feel compelled to share my experience/observation. I was a long time bimmer fan before owning my first while stationed in Europe 2006-2010. A 1993 735i 5spd purchased in the spring and didn't think much of it until the weather began to get chilly. I realize that you're from SoCal and probably won't be able to relate so bear with me...while growing up in NE Ohio, my mother would always have the heater blowing full blast and it would give me severe headaches in short time with all that hot air blowing on my face. I'm sure her cigarette smoke didn't help, but that's another story. Fast forward to the E32, a vehicle that allows full heat, or auto control, and being able to send a little cool air to my face was an absolute game changer! It was then that I could experience and appreciate the brilliance of Bavarian engineered ventilation systems. Hope this first hand experience helps explain the madness. Currently on my 9th bimmer here in Central Florida and the ability to manually direct cool air across my face is still very much appreciated for the couple months of cooler weather. This has been my experience- YMMV. Side note- after sharing this with my wife, she said to relate it to the little bit of cool air you get while flying in a commercial airliner.

    The purpose of the middle hot/cold dial isn't overriding your climate control. Its the temperature of the direct air that hits you out of those front facing vents. The climate control will continue to warm or cool down the cabin air to the set temperature. This is brilliant because you can get warmer or cooler air instantly, while the car slowly adjusts the climate with the other vents.

    Opel/Vauxhall had the same style of turn signals in 1990s and early 2000s. I never got, why. Citroen tried in 1970s and 1980s rocker-button turn signals without autoreturn, so you flipped switch to turn tun signal on and that you must turn it off yourself. Weird but to be fair, I got used to it.

Although it's keyless entry and push to start there is a hidden key in the remote which you can use to get in some doors and trunks if non convenient equiped. There's also one more cup holder under the driver side center armrest. And some may have a more stable rear passenger armrest with two cup holders.

    Okay so that dial: Imagine you have your climate control set to your favorite temperature and that dial just in the middle. That's our base situation. Now let's say you parked your car to take a walk in the park but suddenly it begins raining and you start feeling really cold - you come back into your car and you just turn the manual dial up to get yourself warm faster. Once you feel comfortable again just turn it back to the middle position. Same thing in the summer - you come back into your car which warmed up in the sun, you want too cool down, turn the dial to cold and once you're comfortable just turn it back to the middle position. I'm no BMW guy by and means and I see this the first time but man do I love it! It's actually brilliant!

    A common misconception for auto climate controls is that the temp you choose is the temp coming out of the vents, but actually the car dumps as much heat (or AC) in the car until it reaches the correct ambient temp and then tries to maintain that temp. As a BMW owner in a colder climate, with the climate control set at 20c auto, the air coming out of the vents (until it reaches 20c) is quite hot and really unpleasant to be blowing in your face, that's where this dial comes in and mine has stayed at a cold setting since I bought the car 2 years ago.

The turn signal is definitely offputting, but hey, when you drive a BMW you really don't need them. ;) Interesting with the no cupholders in the back, mine have them with what you call the cell phone tray.

    Here is the reason why the cold / warm dial is nice; in case you don’t want to change all your climate control settings (e.g fan speed or interior temperature), you can just switch to between warm and cold. Let’s say you want to keep the interior at 65 degrees all year round (that’s your comfort temperature) once every things set just the way you want them, you just have to switch between warm and cold. It is even nicer because it is dial and you can change it without taking your eyes off the road.

    That manual dial is genius indeed. Let's say you get into the car on a cold day and have your climate controls set to the hottest setting possible, then while driving you decide you're warm enough for that moment and you need a little breeze. Then you can turn that little dial a little colder. No need to think what temperature you need just red - hotter, blue - colder. Also you can have your preferred temperature always set to what it needs to be, but then depending on the weather you can just adjust the little dial to make the temperature what it needs to be without poking some buttons but rolling a very intuitive dial.
