This comparison is really just a sports car vs. a "sporty" coupe. The 128i (as well as the 135i) don't have a limited slip diff... that pretty much kills it for being a sports car. The lower center of gravity and lighter weight of the BRZ will make it far superior in handling imo.

That said, the 128i will probably be more comfortable, and the back seats more usable and spacious. I used to have a 135i and it was actually quite nice in the back.
