I remember the first time I drove the M3 a couple years ago, and decided I don't need the M3 because I can't use the performance unless I've taken it to the track. I now I am recalling how "crazy" it was with the 135i, where your boost starts below 2000rpm!

I think I am going to get the 135i.


Yeah, boost starts below 2,000 (where not needed) and ends at 5,000 (where needed). The motor looses 100 lb-ft of torque where it needs it most. Therefore, if you like this motor, don't ever think of yourself as a spirited driver. Spirited driver's don't find fun at low rpms. Please get the 135i. You're not the M3 type.
