Stunning car! Love the wheels, roof and exhaust!

There is a detailed thread on the US 1M Forum documenting the build process.

I don't know how I feel about the colour. I think it looks really good but I would never get it, probably sums it up!

I also think it's too low - form over function. Same with all the non-functional carbon.

Everything else is perfect.

I bet his/her last car was a honda, that thing has rice written all over it and the bootlid spoiler

Zuzu · 06-04-2012, 06:55 PM

I can get over this pix, where the boot and other items, seem to have been painted outside amongst the junk..

Knightelf · 06-04-2012, 08:12 PM

Wow...

But after all that the car all up is probably still cheaper than a new 135i in Australia

travisaus · 06-04-2012, 08:20 PM

Thanks for the links Zuzu!
I had a picture of a yellow E36 M3 on my wall when I was a kid so to me this is the hero colour !

maybe it was painted inside, but left out the back to dry? :P

Rivenscyr · 06-04-2012, 08:51 PM

Damn that read 3/4 shot is mean, so phat

Dakar yellow is interesting... probably need to see it in person before passing judgement

bmw1mc · 06-04-2012, 09:09 PM

Love the bbs F1 wheels! Bloody expensive though.

I would have got this colour if it was available.

Not sure what his last car is, but his other car is a Veyron. Not sure what you are referring to, but previously had a GTS wing, then it was changed to the BMW CF spoiler, the current car has the ducktail bootlid was the old CSL style bootlid which was supposed to have made it to the 1M.

Interesting note. The ducktail bootlid came after it was painted. May be it is not the ducktail on in that pic?? can't tell.

Looks good, 19x9.5" and 19x10.5". About 1.5kg heavier than the RI-Ds though and 2k cheaper. RI-Ds however are only 19x9 and 19x10, same as stock but different offset.

Pity he has taken off his CCM-Rs brakes.

i agree, is it cool to have a tow hook hanging out all the time now? it really needs bonnet pins or whatever they are called as well, maybe a car bra, and a TV boomerang aerial on the boot. oh yeah some extra fog lights and 15x boost gauges hanging out of the bonnet.
