The guide said it is because the 3er's paint system yields a thicker (base)paint - it is better for long run durability. She basically confirmed what some have been saying over here - that the 1er's paint is pretty thin.

Interesting, when you say 'will be', are you saying the 1M gets this 'better' paint?
