I would really like some nice performance parts on the 1m. Minus the stripes of course.

Last month i was in Frankfurt to discover the new 1 series F20 and i spoke with the main engineer of BMW Performance. He told me they were really considering a brandnew performance programm for the 1M. ( Engine tune, exhaust,... ) The main problem was the limited potential buyers due to the small production but there is hope at least

It is an absolute hoot on the track and an addictive plaything on your favorite twisty back road. "

Is this a render/speculation, or the final product? Can't say I like it. The stripes are way too wide relative to the body size and look home made and gaudy IMO

Yeah so about that ... MAKE SOME MORE 1M's BMW, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!! =) There's a ton of interest in the car, ppl want it. Make more then you'll have more ppl to buy performance parts instead of limiting the potential pool of buyers.

Those stripes looks cheesy imo.
Way to big, looks really amateurish!
I'd make them better myself, or look to Alpina BMW, this is just ridicolous imo.

Regarding the stripes on the frozen E92, it doesn't look better on it, it's looks less bad imo.

But still bad!
