Is the 335 really that fast?

Dropped my baby off for her first oil change and to get the auto headlamps fixed. Got a 08 Z4 3.0 as my loaner... Damn is this thing slow compared to the 335!!! We are sure spoiled.... lol

There's no such thing as a 2.5. There's a:
3.0i - 215hp
3.0si - 255hp

Another thing you gotta remember is that bimmers hide the sense of speed very well. 80mph in my e36 was smooth sailing compared to a 90s blazer.

Likewise 140mph in an e46 M3 felt like 70mph in my e36!! I thought the 335 was horrible in the corners during the test drive until I looked down at the speedo!!
