Can anyone tell me where the tie down points are and how many there underneath the 335i? I'm going to trailer my car back home when it reaches the NJ port. If there are no tie down points per say, where under the car would be good for this purpose?

Thanks!

Many people go through the wheels so you have full suspension travel. I don't know how soft the wheel paint is though.

Remove all the plastic jack pads under the car with a screwdriver and use care! They snap back in place.
After they are out, there's a hole in there that a universal tiedown hook will fit into.

I don't know what the flatbed tow truck drivers gets it from but they have a special curved t looking hook that fits nicely in there and it's the same type they use in the 18-wheeler car transporter.

Are you on the Aida docking 10-18 by any chance?
Why are you trailering? Seems riskier than driving having done that route many times myself. The NJ Pike isn't too bad south of the New Brunswick exit and there's some great photo opps along the way in DC etc.
You could fly into Newark and take a 10 minute cab ride over to Port Newark from the airport. I assume that you had European Delivery and that's why you can p/u in Newark?

No, not on the 10-18 docking. I'm not actually picking the car up until Jan-Feb 08 time frame. I don't want to drive it under winter conditions back to New England. Originally I was to take delivery next summer but I got an earlier build date. Otherwise I would drive it back.

How many jack pads are there? Two front and two back? I'm using a standard tandem trailer with eye hooks for strapping it down.
Thanks for the info.

I,m sure the flat bed driver knows what he is doing, and will take care of your ride. You can bet its not the first car he has towed long distance on a flat bed.BTW congrats on your new whip. and dont worry. Easy for me to say huh (LOL).

Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I'm towing it back myself, I'm not hiring anyone. Cheers

2 in front, 2 in the back. Easily seen from the side if you use a flashlight, look below the bottom of the door level and look or black plastic boxes sticking out.

I found out the name of the special hooks, it's called t-hooks.
