Tough decision OP and I agree with the other comments. I've had both and in the end prefer the 35i. It came down to my driving patterns. Commutes are usually in traffic and rarely can I enjoy the engine. My only nitpick with the 35i is at lower speeds where it doesn't feel as strong as I'd like, even with sport mode. The 50i takes care of that, but it's a minor issue. I'm also concerned about the reliability of the 50i in the long run.
