They're pretty quick in a straight line, and on some road courses. They (especially the 1 series) have some suspension issues that really cause problems on more demanding road courses.
Factory turbo cars are always going to offer quite a bit of tuning potential. |

i was looking very hard for the right 335i but i just wasnt sure about them and finding one with the correct warranty and CPO and options was kinda hard.

135/335's do NOT come with LSD. but 135/335 was not the sports car argument
135/335's are rather impressive in 1/4 mile and 60-130 runs. since we have factory turbo's, tuning is easy. what i meant by that is a car that is using his octane and boost proportionatly. basically an N54 that runs octane for 16-17 psi, is going to put a hurtin on A LOT of cars. and yes cossie, you can buy a corvette and run circles around, but is that the total package? |

If you put it up against a forced induction Z, supercharged or TT'ed, a fully tuned 335i with stock turbos would not have an edge.
