Very nice review! I guess that you highlight an important aspect that's less stressed, or even neglected, in some car magazines: cars are driven by real people on real roads.

The fact the M135i drips torque as from idle rpm is extremely dominant in the real live comparo versus the Merc which doesn't build comparable massive torque low down! The sweet six in line still has the edge to season the sporty drive into a premium lustfull endulging leasure.

On the other hand, when you push the shove on a closed circuit, the dominion of the Merc seems obvious. But what do you really want: the fastest around the ring or the one who delivers most pleasure in real life. I know what I want...
