It's not even fair. The 335i performed very well in the Car & Driver Lightning Lap, there's no telling what a much smaller car with the same engine will do.

my assumption is it will be held back by something (that can be corrected in the aftermarket!) so it's not besting the 335i... it is like 200 lbs less though. we'll see when she's out !
