New 2009 2010 BMW Z4 - ZPOST - View Single Post - Is there enough difference in 35i and 35is.........

I believe 4.3 is the best number for the 35is so far. Interestingly enough, this puts it in some pretty good company. It's actually rather amusing that the 35is can match the performance of a 2011 M6. It's also interesting that the 35is is only 0.2 sec away from the 2011 Corvette that has nearly 100 HP advantage, and matches several of the AMG cars that have 150-220 HP advantage. Lesson Learned: excess weight = bad.
