Sacrifice looks and you can have it all....

30 mpg+
Low tax rates
Lower running costs than a 335i
Comfort button for cruising
Sport and Sport+ for hooning
Faster than a 335i everywhere
A lot faster than an M3 anywhere below 5k rpm
More torque than the V8 everywhere in the rev range, esp. 1300-4000
Handles a lot better than a 335i, although not as well as an M3
Latest Sat Nav - good
Latest adaptive dual Xenons - brilliant
A car with the soul of the E30 M3....compact, light, nimble

M135i.....you won't find more bang for your buck. Does everything except look better than a 335i, outperforms an M3 anywhere under 5K and gets mid-way to M3 handling at the push of a button
