It’s not going to be $100k. The M6 is cheaper than that. Expect aroudn $55-60k.

E92 M3 \> 135i.

As much as I love the 135i, I’d rather have an M badge.

M1? lol

E92 M costs just about double of a 135i, and with the money you save you can make the 135i outperform the m3 in every single category

But still wouldn’t be an M. Still wouldn’t have the same power delivery. Yes, I know the TT on the 3.0 makes a good powerband, but nothing quite sings like an all motor car. Especially one singing to 8k.

Wouldn’t really matter if it’s faster for cheaper, there is always something with a better powerband, but hey if you can faster for cheaper it dosn’t really matter does it if its a bit more peaky.

Overall, yes, it can be faster. But you’ll quickly void the wonderful BMW warranty.  
IMO, an all motor powerband like the new M3’s would be AMAZING. It’s almost like comparing my G35 to the LGT. The G had power everywhere. Look at a dyno plot, close your eyes, and put your finger on it, and chances are I had power there lol.
