track conditions change a lot resulting in different laptimes, differend skilled test drivers, sometimes manufactor put different wheels on their production models which also effect track performance.

I note the lap time for the E90 335i is a whole second faster than the Sport Auto test of 05.09.07 - previously posted on this site. It is also substantially faster than the E92 that posted a 1:17:8 and the DSK which posted a 1:17:9. This must be a first - the 335i sedan beating the coupe. Any ideas why this is so?
