M235i - 3500 lbs
328i - 3406 lbs
335i - 3571 lbs


///Marketing at play again. I say we give them a hand, because these guys are pretty much geniuses. They are doing an excellent job at hyping up their products, and they do not have that much to work with. They have to get creative. The older generation of BMW marketers had it much easier. The cars pretty much sold themselves.

Is that some kind of new math?

3500 plus a 200 lb person equals 3700
3571 plus a 200 lb person equals 3751

Or does the 335 drive itself?
