Option A - 340hp leaves room for aftermarket tunning to the 400hp realm and beyond
Option B - 451hp leaves room for aftermarket tunning to the 500hp realm and beyond

Which of the above 2 is more likley to be the case for the 1M?

BMW would love for everyone to play with the 1M in the option "A" territory because option "B" is all M3 territory.

Think about it, sales would fall flat on their face for the M3 if most folks can buy a 1M and tune it to eat M3 for breakfast. The only way the 1m would come with option "B" mentioned above is if the M3 is going to be upgraded as well for higher HP numbers (which i think we all agree that this is not the case).


Just a lil scenario to think about. carry one fellas
