And no need because you don't have high speed limits? Put someone in a 128i and then a 135i and ask which was more fun from 0 to 40. I know, I live in a small beach community where the top speed in my general area is 45. My 1M is way more fun than my 128i I used to have. I'm sure I would say the same if I had a 135i.

The N54/55 is a beast of an engine, hands down and definitely can't take anything away from it.
More power is almost always more fun but I think it's more of a question of just being satisfied.
