When picking a 109 to fly, you are always trading speed for manoeuvrability, or vice versa. There is only one point in the 109s history where the next version was both faster and more manoeuverable than its predecessor, and that is the jump from the E to the F, which is rightly regarded as the point in the Bf109s history where it was most competitive compared to its contemporaries.
