Man, you blew us all out of our shoes with your wisdom. What an eye-opener ! We, rookies at the 1M forum, definitely do not stand any chance against a mighty connoisseur like you. With your precious know how, you easily manage to talk ice into ashes. Swatting flies at the blink of an eye. We are actually humbled and honored by your visit at the 1M section. "Success" must be your middle name. So first and foremost, allow me to thank you on behalf of all 1M forum fellows, for your inspiring insights, which you even share free of charge.

You gracefully nailed it with exquisite decorum when you suggested that the 1M is nothing more than merely "The Poor Man's M3". So true. Actually, as you correctly suggested, we are craving for the ///M badge, but, unfortunately "il n'y a que la vérité qui blesse" (only the truth hurts): we simply cannot afford an M3 - indeed the 15K extra is a painful budget overshoot - it would derail us finance-wise. The M3 is indeed the ultimate car we want, infinities of dreams imploding into one. If only you knew how we are yearning for the glow of a high octane affair with an M3 ...but it's out of reach. We got to settle for a poor consolation prize: the significantly inferior 1M ("crappy looks" as you righteously described). Luckily BMW gave us the impression that we belong to the ///M crowd, but, of course, that's just a marketing trick they pulled: we all know that the 1M is no true ///M car - no, it's a ///Mockup car.

But that's life. Some guys have all the luck. We got to know our place in the universe of life. You always go for gold, while we got to be happy with iron or wood. During school days you, the Alpha Male, went home with the prom queen, while we, the Omega Losers, went home alone.

Please do us all a favor and let us know when you apply for the the position of BMW M GmbH CEO, so that we can timely create a Facebook fansite in support of your application.

Conclusion: hats off, Your ///M Highness M3takesNYC - your latest post is truly a CLASS ACT.
