Yes, but the BMW also has more torque and +/- 80hp advantage. This may be unpopular, but I don't think apples to apples a BMW will ever beat a Porsche overall. Porsche are very focused and highly engineered, where I feel BMW has to design to a bit more "mass market" appeal (4 seat, sedans, everyday use/AWD, etc). Also, don't count the Porsche out on comfort vs the M240. I don't find my 981 and less comfortable than my F30 340i, yes the F30 is roomier but the comfort of the seat, suspension, driving position etc is probably better in the 981. I feel that the 2 generally reach different customers, BMW's (save some models) are often used as daily drivers and excel at that, where most Porsches (save for SUVs) are bought as 2nd+ cars. Both have their place, and both are excellent products in their respective segments.
