There is no question that a 1M version of the F22 will be made. It will be interesting whether the next generation 1M will have greater output than the current 1M, or if the M engineers will attempt to significantly reduce weight instead of increasing power. Given that the F22 will be slightly larger than the current E82, it is hard to imagine a substantial weight reduction (i.e. 3000-3100 lbs), regardless of how much carbon fiber is utilized.
It appears the F22 will be powered by a 4 cylinder turbo, which will be a high strung engine if it exceeds the 340hp of the current inline six turbo. There will not be much easily accessible power left on the table for aftermarket tuners, so in some ways the N54 powered 1M may end up being more desirable. |

The 1 M will depreciate the same as other 1s; and I don't see how 1M would become a collectible in the future since it is not a limited edition and BMW will make as many as they can in the next 2-3 years.

Exactly. Not get too much excited, even if production will stop 2011. As soon as the successor will show up (my guess, won't take 5 years) the 1M won't be any special anymore.
And if the F22 will look great, it'll be a hard time for the current 1M. Just like with the old M3 on the streets: Are they great cars? Yes! Do I want one? No. |
