Here are some relevant links regarding the name of the 1M... I searched and searched but I could not find the post where Scott26 mentioned the boards decision on the name of the 1M.

Readily available at my local liquor store. If memory serves, less than 35€ (about $25 USD I think).

Yeah I got a bottle at my local packy (liquor store)

Opened it up and had some neat. I'm not a rum expert, but pretty smooth

I'd send you some, but I'm guessing not legal

I gather you're having difficulty getting some locally?

this is the "real" XO reserve called planters gold -in the end it was available for € 150,--

i had one last bottle just before i got my 1M - got it for about €80,--

should have preserved it - because now you only get the €35,-- version (which is not as good as the original version) or the pyrat cask 1632 for € 250,-- which is too expensive for drinking it all up within one week

The "Pyrat" code name lives on on parts stickers.

See for example this sticker on a wheel housing part for the 1M (fender liners):
"Achtung: E-82 M.Pyrat" = "Beware: E-82 M.Pyrat". Ain't bad as decal.

On the part itself is indicated E82M:

The 1M. The gift that keeps on giving.

Thank you Dr. Segler, for unleashing the people at M who really understand what 'the ultimate driving machine' means (or meant rather). And who have some character and clearly a sense of humor.

Although it's hard to believe, it's nevertheless part of the legend: the final concept, "formal" design and engineering of the 1M took place in only TWO WEEKS ...while the ///M boss was away on a trip ! It was a crazy project, creating some sort of 'love child' within the BMW M family (http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=841751)

When I hit the States and was trying to figure out what to get on my license plate I settled on PYRAT M :-)

PYRAT was available as vanity plate in RI up until about recently (today?).

Anyone in here pick it up? Had to settle for "ONEM". RI naming rules don't allow for a leading number :/
