A 485hp twin-turbo 3L V12 with a top speed of 185mph back in 1939, sweet!

That is a sweet car, definitely ahead of it's time. That car would probably outrun the 335i and any other 3-5-7 series, just about all the M cars ever built and just about anything else ever built for that matter. Could you imagine being bold and cocky with your new car and then getting your ass handed to you by an almost 70 year old car.
