Reliability is an issue on any car that has increased the power significantly.
I'm pretty sure the 335i has had issues. Small issues, but issues nonetheless.
Plus the 335i coupe weighs almost 300lbs more if I remember correctly.

I guess it all comes down to personal interest and the owner's purpose for the car.
Plus, I have a biased opinion.

Well that's very kind of you to remind me.

There are two TT G37's (fireboy AAM TT?,christians GTM TT) in my area one of them took it to the track on the 500hp(IIRC) settings and was able to produce a 12.6 @ 116ish? in the 1/4. Obviously the 370z should post better times due to its weight but the difference shouldn't be too drastic (.5 or more). True, 335i's have trouble making 400hp+ with bolt ons yet can dip into 11 sec in the 1/4, it's all in their powerband.

I agree with you on the reliability thing but lets just say I have seen from experience, numerous unhappy owners due to having problems with their FI'd G/Z.

Totally understandable you having a biased opinion but I just don't like it when people are slightly misinformed and i'm super bored at work today
