Off topic: How does the 128i compare to your past 98 m3?
I was behind a 4 door Yellow e36 m3 the other day, made me wonder.

I still own the M3, the 1 is my wife's car. I haven't got to push her car yet but I get a sense of a shorter wheelbase, even though the M3 is shorter in comparison. It probably has something to do with whatever steering assist it has. The 1 rides a lot harsher too with the sports package. I think it's mostly from the run flats though. My wife tries to keep me away from the car as much as possible. One thing for sure is the M3 has a lost more room than the 1, specifically the trunk.

It is better to warm up an engine under gentle driving than idling. This is not new nor limited to BMWs.

New to me. I guess I never thought to research the subject before.
