Not to nitpick but I hate the way back light bleed out from the center dial. I see it as cut costing and not on par with the quality M logo represents.
See M3 dial as comparison

The engine cover should be more //M oriented. Should throw red flags signifying its difference from the non-m vehicle. Not that its a huge deal, and Im sure it wont disappoint, but it hints their attitude towards making it stand apart, and purifying M heritage. |

I love when people do this.. they say...
I'm not a racist... but.... and immediately then make a racist comment... or.. not to nitpick but... then immediately begin nitpicking.. Just be honest and just say... I know this IS a nitpick... because to say you don't want to... but then you go ahead and do it.... just makes you look silly. |

Anyone see this? Says M Twin Power Turbo for the 1M, unlike the twin turbo of the N54/135i.. anyone else think that seems a little strange? Maybe different turbo..?

The moonroof is what illuminates my car in the day time, and lets the soft glow of the street-lights in at night. It allows moisture to exit the car, and fresh air to flow in. It is my A/c in the fall and spring and summer.... oh... the moonroof. Bmw... if you are reading thing, give me the moonroof... keep the performance that I loose with it. |

I agree with rapter. Even though it only hurts the performance, a moonroof is a must for me on a street car. Thats what kept me from buying an STi (that and the cheap interior). Most of the track events I do aren't timed, and if i lose a bit of time at an autox or time trial to enjoy my roof 90% of the time I am driving my car, it's not a big deal. My friend (who has an STi) thinks I'm being silly.
