SCOTT,
Is there any way that we can "encourage" BMW Military Sales to offer the 1M? A point of contact maybe? The only thing I've been able to find is info for local dealers and most of them only know as much as the rest of us. Thanks

Given all the other cars out there at a lower price range.. I can personally guarantee you won't see more than 2 or 3 other 1M's on the road. The two years I had my 135i I probably saw 3-5 other 128i/135i's around here.

I've had no issue with military sales so far with the 1M... Could be some BS if it's not offered, but in that case it won't matter. Makes my choice easier since I'll have to get the M3.

Wow,
I am so happy to see the 1M in Brussels then! So, don't have to drive to the BMW Welt in Munich! @M3 Power79 Are you sure about this time frame? I live in Luxembourg, but i usually buy my BMW's in Belgium! So,please, keep me informed, if you know some news about this! I have to call my sales assistant, and ask him also about this! |

if this is the case then doesn't it mean that there will be a replacement 1M as a 2014 model year? Assuming the 1M is a financial success for BMW AG (which I'm sure it will be)
i'll be going from 08 135i -> 11 1M -> 14 1M Man they got this all planned out didn't they...

For the moment Belux is still negotiating the official price and equipment and the amount off cars who will be reserved for our market. Rumour is 40 à 45 cars. |

All the other weeks are in fact a waitinglist. I've sold this morning a 3 series and delivery is still this year because we still have production quota for end of december. |

This is very good news...
It would be infuriatingly short sighted to set an artificial production quantity limit for a car designed to broaden access to M vehicles. This thing will become a legend whether they make 2,700 or 27 thousand.

And in fact, a year after I purchased the RS over the M3 when it was time to chose a stable mate, I went with the 135i over the M3. In both cases, budget was not a constraint or the issue that deterred me from buying the M3, I went with the car that made both sense from a fun factor, looks, practicality, and "win your heart" standpoint. Has nothing to do with status. If I wanted that latter, I would have picked the M3 over the 135i, don't you think? Or buy it now instead of lining up for the 1 ///M. To me the E9x was a huge letdown, enough to actually make me switch over to the folks at quattro GmbH. I am a member of the Manhattan Classic Car club (http://classiccarclubmanhattan.com/). Among our inventory of cars was an E90 M3, now replaced by...an RS 4, all because of popular demand by our many members. Both cars can be considered modern classics, because the direction we are headed I doubt you will be seeing NA V8s in a mid size sedan any time soon. True car aficionados like myself buy cars for the joy they bring, not anything else you are trying to imply.

And I am not here to get you 'sold' on what I have to say. Sorry to have pushed the wrong button, should have realized I am dealing with a rather insecure M3 owner who takes issue whenever someone doesn't share his view of M3 being King... Anyhow, this is not contributing to anything meaningful to the rest of the community here. My guess is that you, like many folks that throw jabs at Audi, have never tried the RS 4. Feel free to PM me, heck, can come and drive the car any time you like, if you don't find it impressive in its own (and different) right, then tell you what, there is a bier garten nearby and beers on me. So yeah, no downside in taking the pepsi challenge.
