There is only 1 M1, and this aint it!!!

Let's not profess such nonsense, if this POS does come to fruition, it will be a 1 series M, it will NEVER be an M1 badged.

I agree, this not an M1, but its not a POS either

Although, one does wonder why would they put out this 350hp 1er when you can simply get a 135 with 300hp stock and chip it to 360-380hp pretty easily?

I agree re: the name, but I must confess that I am excited about this car. It will be like an E46M3 with a turbo... Can't wait, actually.

wonder how this will compare to a heavily mod'd 135i (FMIC, metch, DP's, piggyback or flash)...there are some serious 135i's out there right now.....
