370z... but maybe thats just a biased opinion cause I live in Richmond...
There's way too many 335's here, it's like the number one honger car to drive. Everybody looks the same, wears similar clothing, and drives a similar car. If I got a 335 for free, I'd sell it in a heartbeat for something else.

370Z is actually a very good car. 335i will cost you significantly more to maintain. If you have the money to spare, then it doesnt really matter. But 335 does look really common now.

For me the 335 lost its appeal to me because there is just way to many on the road, its like the corolla/camry for the wealthier owners.
Honestly though, the two cars are so different and aimed at two different crowds. I would honestly get the 370 cause its just a lot more unique, more fun to drive and the rear fenders are soo damn sexy. However im the type that doesn't care about road noise, 2 extra seats and stiff suspension, so it's really up to you.

They are 2 very different cars with different characteristics. I would pick the 335i if I must choose.

I'd choose the 335i but I do agree that their are SO MANY E90/E92's on the road these days, since the only difference between the 335i are their exhaust configurations and the badges  The reason for this is because you can pretty much lease a relatively fast and luxurious BMW(335i) for a little under $1000 with $0 down.
Even though 370z is more "rare" I would still choose the 335i, I've driven it countless times and it's a beast. Add in JB3/JB+ and you're set!

I had a E92 335i last year, got rid of it early this year because I needed some cash for an investment. Right now I have a 2010 E92 328i and just got my 2010 A5 and I can tell you that the difference between the A5 and my 328i are night and day, forget about comparing the 335i vs the A5 or even S5. The handling is far superior to the A5/S5. The E92 imo is the best handling coupe in the $50,000 price range. I also test drove the E Class coupe before I got the A5 and it was awful. It feel way too soft and didn't really feel connected.

id go with 370z, when it first came out i thought it was absolutely hideous.
Now its really growing on me.
Rode one the other day, the interior is a huge step up compare to the 350z, the exhaust note is a lot quieter too compare to previous. 335i is everywhere, ur neighbours grandson drives it.

Thanks for all the valuable feedback guys. I will pull the trigger on the 335i. That's my dream car btw. And actually I have been leaning towards that direction despite I have a good deal on the 370z.

test drive both car and see which one you like??
I've been driving a 335i for just over a year...the car has sooo much low end torque which is great for gentle driving and passing on the hwy...but i kinda think that takes away some of the fun and sportiness...(u never have to downshift to get more power)
Get the M-Sport Pkg if you want to be different but don't want to do aftermarket mod. (it comes with the rear valance, front bumper kit, rims, steering wheels, shadow line)
Btw....if I get to choose again...I would've taken an S4 or an A5  I am really liking the new audi styling....and they are about the same price as the 335i.
