I just think this would be a fun fast little ride. In your opinion do you think this is quicker than a 335 with PPK on it. Essentially I think that's all this car is, the n55 with the PPK straight from factory. BMW states 4.8 0-60 times but in my opinion I feel BMW always states .4-.5 seconds slower than actual times. What's your take? Thanks!!
This car is really nice. I have a 2011 E90 MSport with Factory installed MPPK and I would say that they are about the same in the power dept. The M235 has the edge because of the 8spd transmission. The E90 feels very solid especially interior wise and has 4 doors (for me a plus for others??). Steering goes to the E90 because I have Active Steering but the M235 is not bad. The overall feel is similar. The M235 is for a younger crowd and comes with great looks and a lot attitude (Michelin Super Sports, Active Sound and aggressive facia)
