Hmmm.. I wonder if an S85 and a couple of turbos would fit under the bonnet of a 1M? ...That would be a weapon of a car!

Looks so stock from the outside! Such a sweet interior too.

A lot less than that when its 6 years old and has 30,000kms on it. They haven't given it M handling, just the straight line speed and braking.

It's probably worth noting that cars appear to be more expensive over there. There are 3 e92 m3's for sale ranging from 135 - 160k. Vehicles which would cost about 100k here. Makes me feel far better than when i go and look at car prices in the US!

M3 power + 130i stock handling = disaster

Lol. This is the plate I've been thinking about for months. It will suite our cars well.

The 130i above has e92 M3 Bilstein Coil-overs, so it's fair to say it has a few suspension components carried over as well to make it fit. I'm not sure where you got the stock suspension idea...

ps: even in stock form the 130i does very well! Kthxbye

BMW do more than change the springs and shocks in M model cars. Coil-overs would help but it still isn't a true M

I'm quite certain the 130i stocker and similar to the 135i in terms of suspension...and the 135i suspension really is nothing to write home about.

compared to porsche et al i am sure this is a valid claim

but for me stepping up from an E46/960 Volvo & a 68 holden the suspension/ride in my 130 is amazing :P

Really isn't even worth a postcard! It's an amazing car and absolutely amazing engine - but so poorly setup.
