Even though it was a stock 335i, it would not get walked THAT badly. It must have been a heavy ass E93 or something. Or a terrible driver.

The IS-F should win handily, but it made that 335 look like a Kia.

Not really a fair race. Chip that 335i and that should make it closer if not equal.

If it is just 0-60mph, IS-F and M3 and 335i are all very close. But after that I think 335i couldn't match the other two.

I think if will are talking stock to stock then the IS-F will do exactly what is seen in the video, but if the 335i is tuned then the results would be very different, maybe even reversed.

Here's a chipped 335i vs M5 with an exhaust, it takes the M5 quite a few shifts to really work it's magic.
