BMW 4.6L V8 1M Clone

ilikebmxbikes · 11-12-2015, 04:27 PM

Many people are familiar with my V8 1M build but do not know the teamwork that went behind it. The success of this build would not have been possible without everyone's contribution.

Huge thanks to: Performance Technic, Revozport, Stoptech, ToyoTires, Targa Trophy, Wolf Vinyl, BPM Sport, Matt Powers, Recaro, ID Agency, eGarage, Drive Channel, The Smoking Tire, Matt Farah, DTMAutobody, European Car Magazine, SuperStreet, TC Design, Dinan Engineering, AutoTalent, iND, 1addicts and Bimmerpost.

Here is the partner thank you video.

First I ever hear of this build, but just watching this short video put a smile on my face. Sounds and looks great, and I can only imagine how proud you must be. I suppose now I've got some catching up to do on your build.

Nicely done !!

It's how the 1M should have been. The 135i has a great engine, but the M cars needs something different.

Haywood · 11-12-2015, 10:02 PM

Slap a JB4 on a base 135i and it's just as fast.

Just kidding. This car is epic. Congrats on the perfect M car.

MKSixer · 11-13-2015, 08:42 AM

Perfection.

Thanks for sharing!!

meehowhow · 11-13-2015, 09:11 AM

One word... Amazing.

mookie45 · 11-13-2015, 09:21 AM

This car is so sick. I love it!

AlpineE92M3 · 11-13-2015, 09:33 AM

Saw the Matt Farah video and have been interested ever since, wish the build micro-site was working! Anywhere else I can find the details and glorious build porn?

It really is a very different car than both the 1m and m3. it is greater than the sum of its parts.

Thank you. i am debuting a widebody kit with Revozport. It is the sequel car to this one but it will compliment it. The original being a pure NA build for road course and the next one will be a supercharged s65 airstrip killer. I have the body kit and have been gathering all of the parts for it. i will be launching a video series of the build once i buy the chassis car.

That was a really cool video. Dont think i have ever seen something that like before on a car video.

zx10guy · 11-14-2015, 06:57 AM

Not much more to add to what others have said. This is just a special car and shows you don't have to be a manufacturer to produce something like this. Just a dream and desire.

Has someone from BMW contacted you? If they haven't, shame on them.

I must have missed the part where you put the 4.6 into the 1M Clone.

It's at the end of the video. We just did it a month or so ago.

Arcades · 11-17-2015, 12:50 AM

Nice

Totally unique I love it. Thanks for the video.

Finnegan · 11-17-2015, 02:27 AM

Thank you for making such a dream a reality! Yes, this is the "M3" that should have been. The car I always wanted it to be. The 4.6 just puts that last bit of delicious icing on the cake.

Maybe I'll get to see and hear it one day. I'm in Norcal as well, and often do drives with M3Dragon and others here in the north of the state.
