what else would make me want to buy a 1M over an e9x m3?

Um, how about longer warranty? No fear that it was molested beyond belief?
No offense, but imo comparing used to new is ******** at best, why don't you go ahead and buy a used Cayman S or a variety of 911 variants then while you're at it?

I feel like I'm on crazy pills. The 1M is 7 grand over a 135i. There is WAY more than 7 grand worth of improvements. 43-45 grand? Who the hell would buy a 135i if slapping on a MSport package made your car the same price as a 1M? 47 also makes it very similar to a 335is, which cannot touch a 1M in handling. A new M3 would run you ~9 grand more, and that buys you a better engine. You can argue you get more car (larger car) but that also means more weight.

9 grand in your 1M would bring it closer to a M3 then 7 grand in your 135i would to a 1M.

So I personally think the 1M is priced well.
