.. quick google says a Z4 has similar power and weight to the respective 1 series equivalents (135 and 130 for N54 and N52) so pretty similar i'd guess

1415kg weight and same power outputs... a stock N52 Z4 or 130i should keep up with a 335i without issue in a straight line let alone around a corner (re: leave in dust), the 335i's stock really aren't that impresive, it's the tune and other mods that gets you haha.
The z4 3.0si vs 130i

z4 is over 200lbs lighter, handles just as well, and has the same power output. Given the option of the two in a 6mt for a track car or fun car...The z4 is a no brainer.
