There are a ton of 1 series BMW's in south Flroida. The time of day you were driving and the area you were in probably was not a good demonstration for that. Its wierd, because I live right by west palm,but I will go a week or month without seeing any and then all of a sudden they are everywhere and cant get away from them.
Its an unassuming little car. IMHO a total sleeper. I have always liked those kind of vehicles. Same goes for my other car, a '95 Impala SS. Most people have no clue that it has a LT1 Vette motor under the hood...back when it belonged to my dad and I was in high school I used to love taking it out, and red light racing all the little rice boys at my school.
Their face was priceless when i smoked their 87 Primer Colored CRX's with a comically huge spoiler on them.
The SS's are not too shabby, for back in their time. deff not a race car and deff not the quickest car on the road. When you say you beat a CRX primered up you probably raced a kid in his first car that just like all of us had to start somewhere. The stock cars dont have much power and are pretty slow. I would love to see the look on your face when a K20 swapped CRX destroys you in their primered car. lmao. Ive seen a K20 swapped CRX with nothing other than slicks and ntrous hit the 10's all day, all motor in the 12's, and well into the low 9's with forded induction all for under 10k. the one series isnt a "sleeper", a swapped light wieght CRX with 800 WHP is a sleeper. ESPECIALLY in south Florida. Next time you are back home PM me and Ill arange for you to admire their taill lights. lol
What was that line from Lock Stock Two Smoking Barrels?....
Guns for show, knives for a pro
