White with Carbon roof and black wheels should be the order of the day! :smokin: :thumbs:

They can't call it the 'M1' due to the 'failed' racer as Matt has posted above!

To this day it keep on winning races like the Ring Young/Old timer Grand Prix, etc ... and it went on to inspire BMW's M-division to keep at it, building cars like the E30 M3 and eventually our M3 CSLs :whistle: ... so not all bad :beer:

BTW I :drool: :smt055 :drool: the CSL "Batmobile" next to it :supz:

I know it's not all bad, hence me putting 'failed' in inverted comma's, it's hardly a failure but was back in the day in BMW's eye's! :bigcry: :whistle:

A 'success' to them is something like a 3 Series! :hahaha: :thumbs:

Looks like it could be some weapon right enough. Look forward to seeing that sometime, wonder how they'll price it? £40K???

I am suprised, fair play then! 'Cheap' for BMW! :hahaha:

[phat///M3]

Looks good, when is it supposed to be released?

Have to agree with the comments here:

and

I'd guess it'll be 40k or so, wld personally pref they had done a 3.0 screamer with say 300bhp and some weight saving.

edit: Might as well have the 123d - I hear that is nice and torquey and also does good mpg if you're gentle! Stick to the real ///M cars boys (and girl) ;-)

They should have just shoehorned the S65 V8 in there and be done with it.
