Again, the car is nice in many many ways.. The power is underwhelming.
But its not 335hp. That is what I'm getting at. That means it has identical HP to the 135i/335i. It simply dosen't. This is all marketing.

BMW sates the 0-60mph in the M3 at 4.7. The fastest its done was 4.1. They almost always overstate the acceleration times. Porsche does it too. The 1M will no doubt be a 12 second car. A 06 Z4M was pulling 13.2sec in the quarter mi.
