The 35i has a "weight to power" ratio of about 10.4.
The point being that a car with a weight to power ratio of 10.4 that has Launch Control and DCT, all other things being equal, is faster than the same car without it.
So, we can no longer make the statement that a car should not be running 0-60 or 1/4 mile any faster that xx seconds, because it's power to weight ratio dictates it can't.
