The N54 won its category for 6 straight years....
In 2013, Porsche's 2.7 finally knocked the N54 down to 2nd. That year was also the only one in which the N54 and N55 competed -- and the N55 came in 5th. Although I admit I'm a bit puzzled as to how it has now jumped to the top of the list this year, even over Porsche's 2.7.
The N55 might be a great engine, but as others said, you don't know what you're missing just with the N54, never mind the 335is over the 335i. BMW made a conscious decision to spec the 335is, Z4 35is, and 1M all with the N54.
