Funny! Kind of like J. Clarkson, putting everything else in the write-up, ending up almost forgetting to talk about the car under review...but funny.

The 1-Series M is also exactly the right length, unlike its larger M brethren, which currently range in size from “Giant Redwood” to “Upcoming Dubai Skyscraper.” And there’s just enough engine power to make you smile, but not so much that they’ll still be finding pieces of you months after the accident.

Cheers

"But for all its good traits, the 1-Series M has one seriously bad one: the price. Two years later, it’s still trading over sticker, with the average seller asking more than $63,000 on AutoTrader.com."

Difficult bad(ass) trait for the competition to emulate + keeps them still wondering "How the heck did they pull that one off ?"

Possible answer: the ace in a deck of cards is worth much more than just the figure "1".
