The car makes sweet, easy work of the curving high-altitude roads found inland, and it makes me think of the previous- generation M3. The specs aren't entirely comparable, yet I believe the two could tangle.
Scorching Speed
Let's just say that Bimmer's estimate of 0 to 60 in 5.1 seconds is conservative. One of the car magazines clocked it at 4.7 seconds, the same ballpark as the older M3. More importantly, the 135i has the same drive-it-like-you-stole-it attitude -- a tire scorcher that pretends to be businesslike and conservative.
