BMW 1M Cabrio Render

ninesixtwo · 12-23-2010, 10:55 AM

Well I think with the 1M the 1-series is no longer the retarded stepchild.

Unless of course they build a cabrio. That would be, like, HURR DURRRRR DERP

Nice render. I wonder what that would do to the weight, stiffness, performance, etc.

Anyone with a 1-series Cabrio that can comment?

You can feel some added weight but the car is still damned fast.

And as far as performance goes I've beaten modded E46 M3s and 135 coupes at autox...you guys have a bit less weight but we don't have a roof. That lowers our center of gravity so in a way it balances things out. The vert is also slightly rear heavy so it does lead to a bit more understeer but the vert can hook up a bit more easily out of corners because of the 49/51 distribution IMO

just not a "vert" person. M + convertible, even less so.

It should come in Monte Carlo Blue.
