Guys I know these cars are totally different. Everything from size, weight, rwd vs awd, supercharged vs twin turbo. They are pretty close in price, the S4 is a couple grand more expensive. I am seriously considering buying one or the other. I guess I am just curious how other car nuts like myself feel about these 2 cars. What would you prefer and why?

I'd likely go manual 135. Also, I'd buy lightly used with either, save like $10k plus and get a good warranty.
135 because I prefer smaller cars, RWD is more fun, lighter weight, more power, crazy power with tune... Both are obviously sure nice cars though, S4 is a way more practical DD.

Well that makes perfect sense
Haha for sure.
My good friend has a B8 S4, and it is wildly more expensive to mod than a bimmer. His brothers have a 335 and 135.
That being said, if mod pricing isn't a concern I'd go with the s4. It's hefty weight makes it super comfortable. It also handles well and has AWD. No more traction issues and you'll be able to launch it out the hole like no other.
Fbo vs Fbo, his brothers 335 on e86 and rb turbos is faster.

S4 for stroking the dash or stoplight racing, 135 for driving.

İd go for 135is personally, the 1 is the 2nd last great steering bmw has and pretty much close to old bimmers as well driving wise. although my moms f10 535 m package electric steering feels tighter than my gti, 2 seems to becoming an older 3 series territory as for size. İf you care about passenger space 1 is not gonna cut it unless they are kids or quick short trips. S4 is great for street and straightline power. Bmw is more of a drifter, track, pretty much everything else kinda car, it has more to offer imo.

It all depends on what you want. If you're a driver and want an excellent drive, the 135 is a no contest winner. If you need something that's a bit more practical, the S4 is a better fit, though the drive is pretty...artificial.
