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.

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
