Nice read. They thought the comparison was very close. That stinks the the 135i doesn't come with LSD. That could be a deal breaker for me when comparing it to a G37 sedan. That, and you can only fit two people in the back.

Good to see the Z come up on top! Some aspects of both cars showed very similar performance, but the Z has a few advantages over the 135i.

Another thing to note is how bland and boring the 135i looks next to the 370Z.

both nice cars

the Z is serious about performance this time, not just a G minus back seats!

Love Infiniti and BMW but for me the BMW winns heads down since it has the better automatic and utility if you have a family ... also the 3.0l BMW turbo cannot be beat in ower and torque ....

If I'm going for utility, I'm getting a 335i, not a dinky little 1-series.

The least BMW could have done is make it look good. As it stands, it's homely and over-priced...

I just test drove the 370Z. It is alot more 'subtle' than I thought it would be.
