135i or 370z

Interesting comparison. I love the Zed but over on the Big Money Wasted (BMW) forum, I noticed none of the members voted for the Zed. Man, I have never come across a more biased, one eyed bunch of people. These people would buy a Chinese car if it had a BMW badge on it. Unbeleivable.

I test drove both and I just dont know! I love the way the Z looks, so sporty and aggressive. Im not really in love with the look of the 135, but the interior is gorgeous and the quality is amazing. I know the Z is sportier and is not made to be a luxury car, and I can agree that the interior of the Z is a big step from previous years. Where im torn is the there is something great about being able to step into a 1 and preform just as well as a Z and still be practical, have back seats, have a much more quality interior and such a smooth and stiff ride. The engine on the 1 is just so smooth and the truth is I can spend about 1200$ and be at about 400whp! You can not get a Z to make that much HP for 1200$. Im just so in love with the Z history and how its such an attractive car, its really a true sports car!

Sounds like you are leaning towards the 1. Like I said before, dont think you can go wrong with either!
