Not in handling it won't, you still can't overcome a substantial weight penalty. Besides, if you start mentioning bolt ons, the cost savings of buying the Z versus a 135/335i is not exactly small. A couple grand invested in the Z and it would keep up with a 135/335i in a straight line (even or at least close) and would outhandle the BMWs in my opinion.

That said, I have a huge amount of respect for the n54 and how well the BMW packaged comfort and performance.
