UPDATES on BMW 1M / M1 news, rumors, and speculation

ChrisK · 06-12-2010, 09:40 AM

I am doing Euro delivery next year for something. Either the M1 or M3. If they name this 135M, then I will go with the M3.

It may seem petty, but....

Although I am thinking about an M3. The deals right now are insane, $500-$1000 over invoice.

Or just get a 2yr old one for nearly half price. I bet $32-35,000 cash you could drive away with this one.

Dont listen to them, Chris!

A.) It is SUPER hard to find a decent E9X M3 for less than 40k.

B.) You'll make it easier for them to get a M1/1M.

KSAF · 06-13-2010, 03:15 PM

BMW269 · 06-13-2010, 04:19 PM

How funny, I see everybody is keeping silent and watching for updates.

penny · 06-13-2010, 04:23 PM

How much is invoice? I've never really understood this. Also, who do you know that's selling them for this little?

The 335is is 320 HP (N54 plus bmw performance upgrade)

I'm pretty sure nobody outside this board will care about a $55,000 135M with 350hp anyway.

Invoice on a 2011 M3 Coupe is $53,730

Edmunds has the invoice price and options.

Not if I can achieve the same outcome for thousands less, but that's why the hope here is that the end result is not just 15% more hp, but significantly better performance also by way of weight loss, suspension and drive train improvements. The sum of the upgrades has to be more than what you can do yourself.
