Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't these cars come with a limp mode feature to possibly avoid damaging components on the engine such as the head-gasket?

The N54 will go into limp mode if you sneeze too hard

Yes, but it can only do so much. If the water pump stops working or the car has been continuously driven while overheating, there's always a chance of catastrophic failure.

335d with a white interior. Pretty cool looking.

10/10 would stain

In person its an off white that I think they called oyster.  Still highly stainable.  I don't think i'd ever have the comittment to keep it pristine.

A guy I work with has one.  I wish they came in manual.  Fun cars.  This one is a great color combo.

This one has been up for a few, I want the crap out of it, but I just can't commit to white with what I enjoy doing. It looks nice, but I would need to put black seats in it.

I would love the white interior.

I was going to buy this a few months ago for 2500. Someone bought it a few weeks ago for 3500 and is trying to flip it. The rust was fine for me only thing that kept me from buying it was the dent in the passenger door. The car isn't Boston green like it looks. Its actually Ferngreen.

Nope, not in the condition it is in. Its a 5k car without the body rust/damage

Glovebox sagged so hard that it disappeared...

I ended up buying that 335i that "needed a headgasket", for $2400.

Wait whaaat? You dig into it at all yet?

Yeah, a little bit. The motor and headgasket are fine (knock on wood). So far it needs an alternator, and potentially a water pump.

-Texas Flood Car

-Florida Flood Car

-Vape parts found in-between the seats 

-///M valve stem caps
