You know how BMW has switched out the N54 for the N55 engine in performance applications? Well Car and Driver noticed too and did a test.
The BMW cars with the N54 engine are pretty quick cars. And even though BMW has decided to replace that engine with the N55 in most of it’s cars (135, 335, 535, etc…) they aren’t doing so in there performance applications. Why?
Because it is pretty easy to make the N54 go faster. And you can do so too with this handy dandy chart.
As we first reported the other day the N54 engine is hanging around still in the form of BMW IS models. One of those is the new 335 IS. Here are some more details on it that haven’t been released prior to now:
Now, this is the real reason we made this trip. Sure, picking up the BMW 335 in Munich was fun….and driving on the autobahn was cool….but Stelvio is supposed to be the best driving road in the world.

Okay, we have now completed the delivery of our BMW 335 M-sport at the The Welt in Munich Germany. So what do we do next????? We drive.

So the day has finally come. As the delivery is scheduled for 11:10 am we have shown up to The Welt (BMW World) as soon as they are open in the morning (around 8am) We were greeted at the door by two very nice folks from BMW who introduced themselves, offered to take our bags, and showed us to the VIP lounge.
