KEY FACTS
- A great example of the powerful compact sedan, with a rare colour scheme and a high factory specification.
- Under the hood is a twin-turbocharged M57 3.0L straight-six, producing 285hp and 428lb-ft of torque, coupled to the six-speed automatic transmission, which can launch the 335d from 0-60mph in just 5.7 seconds.
- It is currently located in and registered in California.
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
- Finished in the very rare hue of Carmine Red complemented by a Beige ‘SensaTec’ leatherette interior, this 335d is thought to be the only E90 of its kind in this colour on the market in western US.
