I'm not impressed with this "is" engine

http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/...take_road_test

4.6sec to 60mph
11.4 to 100mph

13.3@108mph

Keep in mind this is in the 35XX lb 335is. The 1 is a good 1XXlb lighter but the numbers shouldn't be too off. Lucky for us, the "is" cars weren't designed/engineered in the same place as the 1M.


On average the M3 mag testing are doing 4.2sec to 60mph, 10.0sec to 100mph and 12.6@113mph. Even another 30k car that need not be mentioned does a lot better than that.

I'm still a believer this motor is based off of the N55.
