Add me to the list. AW 1M in Sydney.

Came from an '09 135i AW. I had FBO + JB4, BMWP gear and a lot of other stuff, all done by myself - I'm a mechanic by trade. The 1M isn't as quick (just yet) but you can just feel that it's in a different league. Can't wait to start modding her too!

Look forward to being a part of the exclusive Oz 1M group on this great forum!

Welcome mate. Cool to have a tech onboard. Look forward to seeing your mods for the 1M.

Hey Guys,

Finally got around to making a quick recording of the HMS exhaust.
The audio quality isn't that great, I think I had the gopro sitting too close.
All in all I'm very happy with the end result, it sets off car alarms in the carpark at work each morning.

In the video the revs are about 2-3000 rpm, maybe briefly higher. Hope to get around doing some drive by videos.

Same with me, still have the 1M and no plans to change.

hey I was just thinking, given some cars will soon be out of warranty.
Anyone thinking of an extended warranty? Is it something we could band together to get a deal on? Vaguely recall this was done yrs back.
