Incorrect. There is a 300lb weight difference between the 128i and the 128i soft top vert. If he is getting the vert he should get the 135i vert so the extra 140lbs of turbo piping(on top of the initial 300lbs) can provide the extra oomph he will likely be missing from his 335i.

And holy crap the 335i xDrive weighs a lot.
