BMW 335i Problems
No car is perfect, but we've gathered everything relating to the BMW 335i reliability here to help you decide if it's a smart buy.
Is the BMW 335i reliable and a good car?
With a turbocharged twin-cam six-cylinder, yes the BMW 335i is a great car! The key is to drive the car with an amount of mechanical sympathy, and get it serviced on the dot so it stays a picture of reliability. These are complex luxury cars so don't go in thinking you'll never spend a dollar on it, but they're well-made fast and fun cars.
How many BMW 335is were made?
Between 2005 and 2013 more than 3,000,000 E9x-generation 3-Series BMWs were sold, across all engine types and body shapes. As the 335i was available in sedan, coupe, convertible and wagon body shapes we haven't been able to get an exact production figure for that model spec.
Fully imported BMW 335i valuation
As a guide you could use the value of locally delivered cars. A 2006 335i sedan has a listed retail value of between $21,000 and $25,000, and a trade value of $17,000 to $20,500. Locally delivered BMWs generally have a comprehensive list of standard features that cars in other markets don't always have, so you need to compare the standard features of your car with those of a car sold new here. The other thing that can affect the value of an imported car is its history. Where has it come from, what has it done, has it been in a crash, is it a genuine car. I would think your car would be worth less than a locally delivered car, and I would value it at $12,000 to $18,000 depending on the condition and the mileage
