"But you have to admit that if the difference is a great as you postulate the 335i coupe will take a dramatic hit. All the automotive press will write that the 135i will be faster, and a better handler than a comparably equiped 335i. The 135i will not only be newer, but all things considered better. Will BMW allow for this?"

I've thought the same thing Brett, but its almost as if they have no choice..lol But HERE comes the big question. Should a 135 handle better and be faster than the 335i? I personally believe it should. It only makes sense because its smaller, and lighter. BMW does amazing things with the 335i, they should easily be able to eclipse that in the 1. But like you said would they allow this? All I know is they cant allow another 318ti disaster
