This really sucks. We need a real M1, not some dressed up 135. Who's ready to pay over invoice for this? It will be pretty sad to see a sleeper N55 outperform this so called M1.
Look, Scott has said it will be a M, Kay Segler said that a M will come, we've sen the spy pics, and as Scott has said, BMW tests in phases. Which we have seen since last Oct, Nov. We've seen the interior, we've seen the suspension,We've seen the CF roof, the quad exhaust tips, the crossed drilled rotors, and we've seen the LSD---no IS version of a car has that. And that the Ms have quad exhaust tips, lightweight wheels and upgraded brakes... We've got 5 more months. There are not gonna be updates every week or every other week. So be patient! Instead of acting like drug addicts, just chill. As the saying goes, good things happen to those who wait. Unfortunately, those who have bought or are gonna buy a 135i, may feel a little upset because they were not patient---now thinking about what to add to take out the M version. It takes more than some CF bits, coilovers, and a LSD to be a M division car.

The C&D article has a lot of misinfo. One, 335 HP wouldn't need wider fenders like the ones shown. Two, they didn't speak on the little detail, like brakes, suspension, CF roof, etc.

It will come...
