Good news for F30 335i owners, the upcoming PPK should give the N55 the exact same performance specs as what's in that M135i that Harris reviews in the video.
Right, he doesn't make sense on that point, same N55 engine.

I wouldn't expect the PPK equipped F30 335i performing exactly that good as this M135i though, there is a serious weight difference between them (F30 85 kg. heavier, manual to manual gear box, according to German BMW web site). That's a big fat block.
