GTI vs BMW 130i

Mmm you guys make it sound like its much faster lol.
 
God only knows how much of ass that 135i is gonna whip. I feel sorry for the Gautengers drivers their new m3's though. Just imagine the look on their face when they see a baby 135i flying past them...lol

I drove a 135i, oh my word that car hauls ass!!
 
Wtf, this is like comparing an M3 to a C200k. The 130i is close to R100k more than the GTi, so how is this a fair comparison?

A fair comparison would be 130i vs. R32

Agreed... maybe the 130i vs R32 vs S3....
Although, Car Torque did do a comparison of the 130i VS GTi...
GTi didnt do to bad hey :cool:

i was in the new M3and a 135i was in front ... that 135i was not just faster than the M3, my god it was much much faster!!! ... 130i is over R300k right ... and with the 135i at R365k its a no brainer ... 135i best bang for buck car ... even if you thinking of spending 1million rand on a new car ... 135i till gonna whip its ass ... scared to think what it will do with a chip :O
 
Here's what Jezza has to say about the 135i.

I'll be honest, I'm not the biggest BMW fan, but this is probably going to be my next car. Unless off course Audi can come up with something equally good within the next two years :D

R360 000 = BMW 135i. 225kW and 400Nm. 1560kg
R650 000 = BMW M3. 309 kW and 400Nm. 1655kg
 
Some people will never get that kW are only 1 part of the equation...
 
Kw don't mean squat if the car can't get it down onto the road.
 
The M3 has a bit of an issue puttin down the power..it has 90kw more power than the 135i yet it struggles beating it..yes the m3 weighs more but that shouldn't be a problem with 309kw under the hood...so the answer is the m3 has wheelspin when u pull away the 135i doesn't!! ive mashed the pedal in a 135i on pull away and no wheelspin!! ive seen new M3's pull off and spin!!

Whats a 100kg compared to 80+kw? My golf was only 74kw...
The average person weighs 70kg, so a passenger in the 135 will mean what? Nothing coz the 135 will still win.

The pull of thing is definatley driver dependant, any car can lose traction on take off.
