1M next to a Frozen Black F80 M3

[catch]

Posted this in the F80 section, thats where I spend 99% of my time. Figured the 1M crowd wouldn't mind seeing the pics as well

Here is one of the reasons I love my job, I get to see and drive special cars. This is my first time driving a 1M. Sounds strange to say, but starting the car had the ambiance of the E92 M3. That throaty start up, cabin filled with sound and emotion.

I took this car in from an older gentleman who wanted something higher and more comfortable. He was a car enthusiast, owning modified P cars and Vettes his whole life. The 1M was the best well rounded car he owned he told me. I would say this is likely because he was not tracking it, while the other performance cars he has had he was tracking regularly.

Took some pictures next to an F80 M3 to show the difference in the flares and overall presence of the car. Wish I had an E92 here to add to the pictures, will have one next week, but the F80 is a good example of an aggressively flared M car to put next to the 1M. The front flares are actually pretty even it looks like, which is pretty wild! The rears on the M3 look a little bigger, but not by much. Both completely different cars with their own purpose. I love the rarity of the 1M, and the comfort of the M3.

If this 1M is still here when our next M2 comes in I would love to get shots of those side by side!

Enjoy the side by side shots!










In case anyone is interested, the 1M is for sale, the M3 is not.

Serpa BMW is right next door to my place I see the black 1M every day as I drive by. They had a VO 1M for sale a few months ago.. Not sure if they sold it or not.

We should meet up, nice to see others on here from my hood!
