Comparison tests like this only does one thing.....elevate the status/desirability of the "underdog" (the 135i in this case) by showing how its performance is "close" to the performance of a much more expensive car that is much higher in status.

This is great press/publicity for BMW and the 135i.

This is similar to a previous test where the M3 was compared to the GT3....(I think?)
