Before you start sending us flaming e-mails complaining that a comparison between the 2008 Audi S5 and the 2008 BMW M3 Coupe is an obvious mismatch from the get-go, you should know a few things. Our first full test of the $53,000, all-wheel-drive 2008 Audi S5 was a bit of a revelation. With a 354
-horsepower version of Audi's direct-injection 4.2-liter V8 under its hood, the voluptuous Audi S5 ran a 13.3-second quarter-mile at 104 mph, just 0.1 second and 2 mph shy of the 420-hp 2007 Audi RS4 sedan. What's more, the S5's slalom speed is within a couple mph of the harsh-riding RS-spec sedan.
"It ran a 13.3? With that kind of speed, who needs a $67,000 RS4?" we asked ourselves. We believe so strongly in the 2008 Audi S5 that it earned our Inside Line's inaugural Editors' Choice Award. So we acquired (hastily perhaps) another 2008 Audi S5 and set it against the new 2008 BMW M3 Coupe, a
car now fortified with V8 power for the first time. Speed-reading the specifications sheets of these two cars, they seem like natural rivals: the 354-hp, all-wheel-drive 2008 Audi S5 measured against the 414-hp, rear-wheel-drive 2008 BMW M3. But as it turns out, we gave the 2008 Audi S5 a bigger ch
allenge than we had initially intended.

i wouldn't say obviously because that 135i is something special it would have been their pick if the M3 wasn't a lot cheaper.

The 135i is best for its price and fastest on straight line. But if you want a sports car the M3 is the ultimate driving maschine.
335i is to heavy and has not the superb handling of the other two Bimmers
So M3 or 135 would be my choice (if I had the Money already)

whoever tested the m3 was awful with the clutch, the 0-60 is 4.7, NOT 5.4!!!!
Wow the only way to ... ( 1 week ago by sixyears)
Wow the only way to beat a bmw was to get another bmw. Man the 3.0L bi turbo 6 is a awsome engine, but you guys convinced me that if I was a car like the new 135 of 335 the old m3 is the way to go. I never fails to impress. I guess the bi tubro 6 is better for the street and city and the M3 6 cylinder is a better track engine.
you know the M3 ... ( 1 week ago by sixyears)
you know the M3 they had was a used car. As a car gets older its performance is worse usually.

Un 'M1' ser
ía la bomba en carreteras de montaña... No obstante el 135i con una buena reprogramación, sistema de escape, suspensión, frenos y unos recorridos de cambio más cortos... Serían suficientes para ponerle las cosas muy difíciles al M3e92. Y encima tendrías un vehículo más cómodo para el uso
diario y con un gasto de combustible mucho menor. Eso sí, olvídate del vibrante sonido de un atmosférico,de seguir disfrutando del empuje del motor durante1400 rpm más,etc.Imaginaos el 135i con DTC...

Fucking slow, you say? 0 to 60 in 4.5? That's what the average race car does! Top speed of 188 miles per hour? That's 4 miles per hour faster than the average race car! Now this is assuming you mean Lexus IS F.

335i engine isnt bi turbo.
both the 135 and ... ( 1 day ago by sixyears)
both the 135 and the 335 have the same engine, the 3.0L bi turbo 6 cylinder. What I mean by Bi turbo is that the engine has two turbos for half of the engine. So for a each turbo is only working for 3 cylinders. Any bmw with the 35i designation will have the 6 cylinder 3.0L bi turbo engine. The 335i was the 1st BMW to be offered with this engine.
Yea your right. But ... ( 1 day ago by Ice3power)
Yea your right. But theoretically the 135i and 335i are twin turbo, not bi turbo that's what i meant. But you could say it either way because most people dont even know the difference.
