Swap the 135 and the S3 and you're golden.

I got to drive the 2.7 Cayman for a whole afternoon, its pretty great. It doesn't feel underpowered at all, and I'm sure the agility and the fun of the high-rev-feeling engine makes up for the faster 0-60 of the 135i. It also comes in a 6 speed optionally, which is not mentioned in the article above.

I haven't driven the 135i though and I wonder how it compares to the Z4M Coupe.

For sure the 350z doesn't compare to any of the above cars, unless you are talking about modding one since its pretty easy to hit some crazy high HP numbers with turbo kits.

Friend of mine has new 350z with track pack, I thought the car was good, crisp handling and with 300hp it's pretty damn quick.
