Wha *IF* BMW under rates the 1M HP just like they did when the N54 came out. In both cases BMW will not want to gut M3 sales.

When the N54 came out they (BMW) said it had 300 Hp. We now know its more like 330 Hp. What IF BMW says the 1M only has 340 Hp, but its more like 380 Hp?

Would a 380 Hp 1M be too close for (sales) comfort to the M3 specs? You betcha!!!

IF they(BMW) did it in the past (& they did!)... they will "probably" do it again!
