Finally made up my mind...
Pulled the plug this morning on my endless debating and ordered a new car. At the end of the day, I scored a really good short term lease deal and I think it will meet my needs quite well for the next 2 years.
2011 335xi Coupe Le Mans Blue / Black Leather / Bamboo Anthracite wood trim M Sport Package Premium Package Heated Seats Navigation HK Sound Smartphone integration & BMW Apps 27 month lease, 12k miles per year, fees down for $5xx a month including tax. Not a bad deal at all for a $56k car. Kudos to my friends at BMW of Sudbury (highly recommended for the MA-area 'mudgeons) who gave me a substantially better deal than I thought possible.

Congrats! I've been mulling over 335s in my head too, lately... though I'd probably go for the sedan were I to go that route.
I'm not sure if I'd enjoy a 335 sedan or a 1M more. They cost about the same, as I'd spec 'em.

Awesome deal! My brother might be in the market for a 335xi sedan. I'll have make sure he keeps BMW of Sudbury in mind.
My parents use BMW of Sudbury to get their X5 serviced. Generally very good people. |

FWIW-- I did get special treatment there b/c the entire "front-end" management team is made up of former Inskip BMW employees that I have known for years. Basically, more of my former colleagues are now at BMW of Sudbury vs. Inskip. I have no problem recommending Inskip as well, but the GM at Sudbury went above and beyond and gave me a terrific deal.
