1M Zuzette
Well guys, I have finally taken delivery.. Unfortunately had to go straight back to work. Still went for a good one hour drive back from Sylvania through some nice back roads.
What can I say that hasnt been said before.. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME.. Cant even compare my vert to the 1M in any sense of form, besides the interior comfort. The gearbox is awesome and the ride is like driving a 3 series. Power delivery is breathtaking..I am shocked at the amount of torque this beast has.My vert dynoed at 255KW ATW and this M feels even more nasty.. Had the tail out a few times..Obviously I am not sticking to 4.5K rev limit..lol Took a mate of mine for a spin who owns a E92 DCT M3, and he was blown away with the power delivery. Spoke to the head tech and he had the same opinion as mine.. Drive it like you stole it. ![]() The dealer gave me an Carbon Fibre ///M key ring and 2 litres of the TWS Motor Sport oil in case it burns some before the 2K service.. He are some quick pix taken at the dealers and my mates panel shop. Oh yeh...Exhaust note is not as beefy as my vert with the custom pipes, BUT totally suits the car..LOVE IT..

VO looks really fast, number plates suit it really well, nothing like picking up a new car when its this good.
i feel the same with the power and the delivery, only explanation i can think of is the dual mass fly wheel enjoy |

Well, what can I say Joe, absolutely gorgeous!
I am really happy that your initial impressions of the car are so positive. IMO they are a future classic and will be sought after down the road by many. I know your vert was a beast but just take care with that rear end, especially if you hit the magic buttons, for Nm and skids. Enjoy and watch out for those nice police people hahahaha they won't miss you ![]() Well done. |
