370z vs 335i Coupe

They're really not that fast, actually. A lot of us guys complain about 370Zs not having the low-end torque, the M3s are even worse, especially since they're so much heavier

Plus bolt on 370Zs are already running quicker traps through the 1/4 than a stock M3. And since M3s don't make a whole lot of power with bolt-ons, a fully bolted and tuned 370Z will have no problem hanging with a modded M3.

And since the boring 3-series interior carries over to the M3...I passed.

M3's stock trap around 112, modded I've seen as high as 117-119 *boltons*. I don't think any non FI 370's have touched those type of traps.

highest i seen so far with the 370z was 115, that was a while back though, could be current or not....117-119 is really impressive

our aftermarket support is slow its sad...i have high hopes for when they crack VVEL and adjust it
