From the current specs mentioned, I'm not willing to pay in the 50's for an M1 and get roasted by a 135 with $10K in mods. That puts both at ~ same cost. And if you think to mod the M1, then that's just big dollars and kind of makes no sense on the price range.
Even to simply enjoy the M1 (however it comes) seems costly if it truly doesn't give an instant erection, and I doubt it will. Think about it, if you get in an M3 after driving the 135, you kind of think to yourself "yeah, it's all right but nothing wow". So I'm sure the M1 will be better stock wise than the 135 but not better than an M3 so is it truly $10K+ worth it? Amazing what that //M does...

Will it be a collectors car because it's new/revived in its series or because it will truly be something sensational?
