DSG/ZSG pwns the 335

I suspect that the real difference-makers between even a tuned 335 and the new M3 will be the M differential and the DSG/ZSG gearbox.

Yes, you can buy an aftermarket limited slip diffy for the 335, but forget about somehow upgrading the tranny itself.

If the DSG/ZSG gearbox has seven speeds, the V8 will always be in its powerband, and it will lose very little time during upshifts.

It is a shame the gearbox iapparently will not be ready at launch.
