The 335 was quicker off the line (the e39 had horribly intrusive traction control) and more nimble, but felt very pedestrian in comparison. The e39's strength was getting places VERY fast and very comfortably. Highway merging/lane changing acceleration was awesome. The 335 was a competent car, better in all weather, but never really lit my fire.

once moving, and pointed in the right direction, i don't find the E61 slow.
for example, on I-684 blowing out of Manhattan and through Danbury moving with traffic at 90mph, there are not many cars that would be more comfortable plodding along at that speed, getting decent fuel economy and semi-quietly.
