If I added up every dollar I have ever spent modding my 135i over the past few years plus the cost of the car, I absolutely be near the 1M price range. But because I don't have a time machine and because I already have a tuned 135i with an LSD, m3 suspension etc. - and the current market value of an N54 135i, It would have cost me $15-20k more to change into an actual 1M. Both Mybad135i and Venom had insurance claims too which mitigated much of the cost of their conversions. My 135i has been insanely reliable and I would rather build the car to my own tastes and save the money. Our cars will never be 1Ms and not hold their value like a 1M, but that doesn't concern me, and it doesn't seem to concern mybad135i or venom. My goal has never been to build a car that is equal or lesser than a 1M, my goal is to make a really good car regardless of factory designation. I am not making one either because I cannot afford a 1M. I have spent nearly 5 months pulling up parts diagrams and researching what I need for this sort of build. I have learned a ton about the 135i and the 1M. It has been an amazing process I would have missed out on had I just bought a 1M. |

Plus, who wants to buy a limited edition car only to put a ton of miles on it as your daily commuter? In a few years 1m's will be collectors cars.
