John's 335i (Again) - 5/15/10

thanks crown, i like it. it feels softer than a Z tho in just about every way. it's also considerably heavier. 335's (3.0L Turbo) make 300 hp or so, so in a heavier car, yea it's gonna be a tad slower. still a fun car to drive though i'm sure. seats sure are comfy...

The 335i is severaly under-rated. It's widely known that the actual HP/TQ figures are closer to 350hp/350tq. It's every bit as quick / quicker vs. the 370z as well. Road&Track tested it at: 13.3@ 105.7 vs. 13.7@ 103.9 for the Z. At VIR the 335i runs about 2 secs quicker than the Nizmo Z.
