This is exactly the reason why the strength of the US Dollar does not matter. What matters is what the competition is charging.

If the G37c starts at 34,500, the 335i might have tough going of it, but if the 135i is priced more than the G37c, might as well call the game now, boys.
Damn, a 300hp 135i costing more than a 330hp G37. I'm sure someone at BMW pricing department got the memo and are thoroughly PISSED. Wow, I wonder whats going to happen. What they need to do in my opinion is make the 135i a limited edition model until the M1 or whatever comes and then get rid of it. Keep the 128i model and add a 280hp Inline 6 in the mix.
