What a car

I hear the new M3 V8 is just as fast as a 135 in a straight line up to a certain point, and that the M can keep up with it on a track.
Any comment? You know Im right.

Thread fail!

I am pretty sure your car will get its backside smashed against an M3 on a track. These sort of comments are so 16ish, i hope your age isn't 20 and above because it really would be embarrassing. I feel embarrassed for you already. M cars will always be M cars

The 135 (and 335) are good cars but they are not an ///M. No mods will ever make it an ///M. It will only ever be a pimped 135.

I wonder if you have ever driven an ///M ?

Probably not.

Yep, its pointless trying to convince Ozzie M3 drivers, especially since they have paid virtually double for their cars and that when comes down to downright performance regardless of the M engineering (which the 135i cant match in engineering) that a 135i with a tune can match the M for performance...

And yes.............I have driven many M cars including the M3

Imagine what an M3 with a tune could do to your 135i.......but most M3 guys don't need to.

But seriously, these threads have been done to death here and elsewhere for years. Time to move on.

Of course they have been done to death. How else will they make themselves feel like they made a good choice in cars? Reality is, if u 135 guys could afford an M u would have one. There is no preference in this matter being that there is nothing in an 135 or 335 that is better then an M. NOTHING.

Y is that M drivers never start threda slike this?

Still laughing at this thread. I like the E92, but didn't feel like it was worth twice the $$$.

I love it how you come on here bashing us "Ozzie M3 drivers", yet in the description in your sig you call your car a "135i M Sport"! Tell me something, what part of your 135i is considered "M"?!! A body kit?
