Few basic questions on the G's engine?

Ok so I constantly hear different things about the car and I'm not sure where to look. Also, I'm at work so I can't just go on a whole bunch of sites.
So:
Talking with a friend about the G37x vs. the 335i, basically I'm not sure about this:
(Warning: I am quite the idiot still when dealing with cars and whatnot, so expect these questions/statements to be quite retarded )

1) The G has no turbos and is just naturally aspirated?
2) The 335i is a twin turbo & not naturally aspirated?
3) The G37x isn't a "real AWD", it drives RWD until you need the extra "oomph" to keep your car driving normally (don't know how to explain this better).
4) The main reason a 335i is faster than a G is because it has "launch control". (Please explain that too if you can)

That's basically it. Sorry if these are basic & just plain retarded questions/statements. (I tried searching throughout the forum but found nothing)
I appreciate the answers!!

1) correct
2) mostly correct. The new 335i is single turbo
3)no idea. Are you comparing a g37x to a x drive 335 or rear drive 335?
4) stock cars is pretty much a drivers race. The 335 is more mod friendly due to the turbo

Activate launch control, hold throttle to floor. Launch control keeps you at x rpm. Drop clutch. Go. And hope nothing brakes.
