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

A con

:fuelfire:

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.

No that's not him............. he's the one in the first pic rubbing his hands on his knees at the sight of a wooly jumper or smoking jacket that he's seen in the shop window :rofl: :rofl:

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

Black of course 8-)

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:

What's wrong with a 520d with an 'M' badge on it :scratchhead: I have lots on mine :tumbleweed:
