370z vs 335i Coupe

NYBladeZ

335i's are BMW drag race cars. As other members on here have posted, 335i's that were making more power could not keep up with the Z in the corners although they made up for it in the straights. Also remember the 335i is turbo charged, as more and more Z's are getting turbo charged this will not be even worth discussing. I love the inline 6 engine layout but BMW gives you some really small yet efficient turbos. Put enough stress on those turbos and you have a reliability issue.

I ran with a 335i on the way home today and I can tell you from my personal viewpoint, he wasn't confident in the turns.

No! he wasn't confident his wallet could handle the repair bill in event of an off-road excursion

They really are BMW's drag cars... especially if you went the 135i coupe route you'd be lighter, not to mention weight shavings on top of that compared to the 335i. With about $1800 in mods you can easily make over 400rwhp with stock turbos.

But comparing a boosted Z vs. a 335i and once again no comparison, the Z would just make the '35i look SLOW
