BMW 120i - 2976lbs - 150hp = 19,84lbs/hp
Nissan 350Z - 3769lbs - 280hp = 13,46lbs/hp
The new BMW 130 - more Power AAAAAAAND guaranteed more weights! ( I have unfortunately no data of the new model! )

Autsch, that hurts me!
Target group? Which Target Group? BMW says the 120 is the best Car in the German "Golf-Class" ( Compact Cars )! In this Class you can find the VW Golf, Opel Astra, Ford Focus and so on. The Nissan 350Z does not fit into this Target Group!!!
VW Golf FSI ( 150hp ) - 2738lbs
Opel Astra 2.0 Turbo ( 170hp ) - 2711lbs
Ford Focus 2.0 ( 145hp ) - 2881lbs
BMW 120i ( 150hp ) - 2976lbs
