Comparing a 135i with a Cayman S (not the first time), well, that tells us something about the babybimmer. | | | | | Fanatic

1) BMW 135i The 135i offers refined power, superb driving dynamics and proper manners for everyday usage. The engine response is a bit slow though. 2) Porsche Cayman S The Cayman S offers a higher tolerance for extreme driving than the 135i and is also quite comfortable but very expensive.
Basically the Cayman S is better at extreme driving and on the track according the AMS, but the high price sets it back in terms of points. The BMW is more balanced as an everyday car and is also fun to drive, has great driving dynamics and is cheaper too.  | | | | | The Following 4 Users Say Thank You to cawimmer430 For This Useful Post: | | | GCZ's High Court
