370z vs 335i Coupe

Nevermind that both cars are great track cars. Because trap-speeds is what you use when someone mentions 'beastliness' of a car. Being a beast implies power, and trap-speed is a measure of power. Pretty simple, and I just felt like pointing out that the 370Z can be just as powerful given a small handful of mods. We buy these cars because they're powerful and to enjoy that power, not because we can take them to tracks and revel in their handling capabilities.

Also, if we really are talking about gearing, the M3, especially the very short-ratios of the DCT, is very much geared to dutifully perform while drag racing. A 4.7:1 1st gear helps snap the car off the line, allowing for solid acceleration to combat the car's lack of low-end torque. It exemplifies that BMW wanted to make a car that burst off the line when the driver wanted to.
