The 335i with the M-package as well as the M3 should have steering options. I know mine has the option to change the steering to M, Sport, and Normal.

I got my BRZ because i wanted a car that handled well and was reliable. My BMW has spent at least double the time in the shop as compared to in the driveway. I believe I have had two transmissions, 5 or 6 brake swaps, DCT reprogramming, and the ECU was changed. If I didn't have a warranty those transmissions would have been 35k a piece. If you buy a BMW make sure you have PLENTY of warranty left or don't get it. As soon as the warranty is gone the car needs to be gone.
