M235i vs. M135i Drifting

So M235i is getting much more media attention than the M135i, and it's higher rated. I do not doubt it is an awesome car, but I am just wondering if it is that much better at drifting than the M135i, or is it just because more journalists are drifting it.

I thought it is because of wheelbases may be different, but they I checked out the wheelbase, they are actually the same at 2690 mm. I thought that is one of the most important fact.

So the question is, if both cars are equipped with LSD, which one will be better at drifting. I guess they would be equally difficult to drift without LSD.

Here is a picture of my friend's 1 series 2 series hybrid. He only showed me because I got him the LSD; he wants to keep it a secret for now. He has one major mod. coming, but I am leaking the picture here because I guess some will like the look. Her face, on her body eh, hmmm....

I don't think there is any significant difference when it comes to drifting between the 1 series and the 2 series (if they have the same differential).

The car looks good. Even has my company logo (ABB) on the licence plate!

that car looks great, and yes 1 and 2series r basically the same.
2 series get vip treatments cause they got in to the US, and people there realize how good these cars after they 'only' drive the 2 series.
