 I had a demanding set of criteria for this car. I'm mid-50's, single, no kids at home. I enjoyed having multiple cars for my different moods and purposes - a 740iL for traveling, a Subaru Forester for bad weather and hauling, and two C6 Corvettes for pure, unadulterated fun.I also wanted to get better fuel economy than my old vehicles (harder than you might think as my V-8 vehicles all got 26 - 30 MPG Hwy, Subaru rarely >20).I wanted to get as much of these into one car as possible.Mission accomplished in the 335i Xdrive Gran Tourissimo.3/2017: Three years later and this car is as good as it was brand new.  It's held up VERY well.  I just paid it off so got new car fever.  Test drove an Audi 3.0 T<whatever> A7 -- a 333 HP rolling work of art.  It drove nicely around town (nice and smooth with some get-up-and-go accelerating from a line.  But when I got it on the Interstate... ho-hum.  No where near the acceleration, responsiveness and agility of the 335 Xdrive GT.  I got back in my paid-off 335 GT and re-enjoyed the nice leather, the Nav and other cool gadgets, and (most of all) the great power and handling.  I think I'll keep him!
