No doubt that its one sorted car. Now if they can only make another 1000 of them and in 10 to 15 years I could buy one.

ps My wife wants that Camaro at any cost really any cost selling her one lung, kidney well you get the picture.

pps Sorry it took so long I still battle with the big words like ( if, this and when):roflol:

In a nut shell

After Deon Joubert did 4 hot laps around Kyalami in the 1M he was quite emotional. "That car is incredible... it's so much like our racing cars of the 90s"

also reads

Deon was not the only one, No one was left untouched by its charms.

Factor in the relative low price and its borderline Perfection

Performance car of the year? easily

Yep, I think it's a case where the 1M is just pure and perfect essence of petrol head heaven. Even Jeremy Clarkson is taken by it, and he is not easily pleased. But getting back to CAR mag's test, very interesting read and yes, makes me wish that BMW would make more!!

Kyalami lap time - 1M 2:01,171 and the Awdee RSthree 2:05.502 , thats 4,3 seconds faster for the 1M .:thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:
Quattro :thumbdo:

In real world driving quattro probably does have its advantages, I just prefer RWD! Worst still of course is FWD - I do not miss that! :thumbs:

I can only imagine how good the new M3 will be. BMW is definitely going into 2012 kicking down doors :thumbs:

I must agree, BMW have set the bar high with the 1M, now they are going to have to outdo themselves with the new M3. I cant wait to see what they come up with.

Pity I don't have a bar and a bit laying around.

As from my previous thread

Yip, what a little machine, absolutely brilliant....Jeremy Clarkson gave it a fantastic review i quote, '' this is a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant car!!!! :bravo:

They drag raced it against the Porsche Cayman R and Super Charged Lotus Evora S and the beemer came out tops. Even the Stig showed the car to be quicker around the track compared to its big brother the M3!!!


I think BMW has finally created a car as potent and magical as the E30 325is or the pinnacle E30 ///M3!!! The other ///M's are awesome as well but those Box Beemers in my opinion is what made BMW Magical!!!!
