I really hope you can drive it and post your impressions. I've had 13 warranty claims severe enough to require leaving the car overnight and getting a loaner--that's an average of every 7 weeks. A friend of mine has a 330i, I asked how his dealers service department is, he doesn't know, after three years, he's still never had a need to visit them--yes, not one thing has needed repair.

So, this makes me think about migrating from CTS-v to 335i in 11 months when the lease is up. There won't be a new CTS-v yet, and I don't want to move down to the regular CTS, so my choice is buying my car, with all of it's scary quality issues, or leasing something like the 335i (my car is company car, leased by my corporation).

So, questions you can answer:

What's the interior space like 335i vs CTS-v? Hows the front seat space, the back seat space, and the trunk compare?

How's the road and wind noise compare?

You got the sport package, so how do the run flats on the 33i compare to the run flats on the V. Do they ride better? Are they cheaper to replace? Have you heard anything about their wear rate?

Thanks in advance,
