I want one (1 Series M)

Post by Sanj » Sat Mar 05, 2011 1:01 pm

Courtesy of another forum's post but thought I would share.

I think it's lovely - would really like one...

And no, that's not me in the last pic! :x

It does look suitably chunky.

It doesn't have a proper M engine though !

Also it doesn't have a proper M Badge as there is no number designate - just like those that put and M badge on their 520d M Sport

Or worse......on a 316 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I mean come on........

As for 1M or whatever that is, it reminds me a bit of the old E36 compact, not quite a real BMW. OK it does look quite good, but as I'm 6'4" there won't be a lot of room inside. I really quite fancied a Z4 but the seat won't go back far enough, so an X6 was ordered instead.

Even considering the negatives mentioned & acknowledged - I think I could cope by having one on my driveway. :)

Absolutely perfect for my missus!

I wouldn't have one though, it would feel like i'd be cheating myself... better to get the M3 second hand or M5/6 :evil:
