BimmerFile Exclusive: According to some very well placed sources, electronic differential and specialized DSC currently found in the 135i will eventually make it’s way to a special performance variant of the 335i expect in the next few years. Look for the 335i to follow along the tradition of the 330i Performance Package that was offered over the last several model years of the E46’s model life-cycle (US only) complete with many of the components found in the newly released “BMW Performance” catalogue.

You had me worried with this when I was considering purchasing a 328i.
However the owners manual for 3 series (starting in 2008) and 135 both claim to have an E-Diff in them. Or, is there a difference between the two?
Both 3 series (2008 and later) and 1 series owners’s manuals state: “in the same way as with a differential interlock, even if DSC is deactivated, brake actions are still performed on the rear axle to enhance drive output if the drive wheels experience a significant loss of traction.”
Maybe this feature was already added to the 3 series?
