The story

Two doors around the N54.

The 335i Coupé offers the N54 in the E92 body. Beside the V8 M3, it demonstrates how very different engines can sit behind similar-looking BMW coupé shapes.

Best for

A six-cylinder turbo coupé.

Trade-off

Body style and chassis code do not establish engine specification.

The E92 335i and E92 M3 do not share an engine.
