1M No 2 Salt & Pepper

Finally signed up today for our second 1M.

Here she is, sitting and waiting at Kloster's BMW in Newcastle. Dan Hawkins is your man if you are after a new BMW, not a 1M sorry guys, give him a call if you're in the market and see what they can do.



The To Do list:
Gloss black repeaters with black/grey /// stripes
Gloss black rear M badge with black/grey /// stripes
Black and white rounders front and rear
Gloss black grills
Black line tail lights
White DLR angels
Performance pedals
Jezza mats
TBA exhaust (not Akra, can't have two at their cost) with black tips
Wheels probably painted as per the AW car in GTS semi gloss black
Springs as per Joe's beast
Performance alcantara flat bottomed steering wheel

That will do for the time being I think.

Anyways, end of August is the current planned pickup (if I can wait that long of course)

Congrats John. That's so cool to have both black & white 1Ms in one garage, like Yin-Yang.

Phwar! Nice! 2 1Ms under the same roof? The only thing you gotta fight over now is who parks on the left or right of the garage!

Huge Congrats, another BSM ftw!!! i really cannot believe you found one. if i ever want a rare car i will happily pay you to find it.

some of those mods i would also like to do. i just need to find some time. must be tempting to keep the akra and put it on the new one, unless you have sold it already.

Thanks guys for the kind words, will be cool having the two cars in opposing colours. May be strange to some having the two but the AW is Mrs Alpine's car not mine and as such she is the driver, not me.

Probably will drive Joe, would be pretty cool if a bunch of 1M's rocked up at the dealer, they wouldn't know what hit them hahahah

Happy to help anyone chasing cars, that's half the fun for me.

I rang 20 odd dealers and ended up finding 6 NEW 1M's (1 AW/1 VO/4 BSM) in various configs and prices. The biggest wallys were at BMW Sydney who had a car exactly as I wanted it but in the end said it was not for sale they wanted to keep it for a static display (B.S).

Yeh, forgot to mention that one, really want special ones but they are $2500 in Canberra, 1M or 1M COUPE or VADER. Anyway I will think of something.

So thanks again guys, I appreciate your interest and support. Will catch up soon for sure, Newcastle maybe?
