want to get a 2009-2011 335i bad

seen some good deals but dont know where to start


first question hows maintenance for yall
The price of parts aren't bad it the labor the dealer charges that will quickly add up. If you can do it yourself you will keep the cost of maintenance down. I don't down a 335i but everyone that owns one talks about the turbos going out once you cross the 100k mark. Also I know the 335i suffered from HPFP issue but they should have been resolved by now.

So labor
and Turbo going out

All things I looked up but the turbo going out is actually something I didnt.

Im trying to find a 335 where someone fixed "everything" before trading it in so I wont have as many issues, Im sure i can do the simple things myself + help from my uncle or friend who works on cars.

find a good indy shop or learn how to fix your own car can save you hundreds if not thousands. If you don't buy it from a bmw dealer get a PPI done on the car before you buy it. If you plan to put a piggyback tune on your 335 just be prepared for your turbo to fail at some point. When idk. But in general 335i are very reliable fast cars. I almost got one but the m3 was calling my name. I know folks with 335i that are pushing 400+ horsepower. If you go to e90post you can find members who are selling their 335 which are probably in better shape and at a lower price than 335i at non bmw dealership.

Just did my first oil change with the help of a friend. Took about 2hrs cause we were missing some tools. But I was able to save $60+ dollars
