That Z either wasn't trying or he missed a shift and couldn't find the right gear becuase it would smoke you as well. Mid 5's 0-60 for the 335i is probably high. BMW claims 5.3 for the manual trans and they are notoriously conservative. It is probably more like high 4's low 5's. With tuning it can be as fast as a new M3. In all honesty, your 4.4 technically isn't faster than any current 3-series offered in the US. Even a 328i automatic has a BMW rated 0-60 of 6.9 seconds. The 4.4i is 7+. Stay away from most newer BMW cars if you are trying to race. Street racing is stupid, but you should probably at least know what the other car is capable of if you are going to try to impress your friends and put your foot down.
