I've just put down my deposit for a AW 1M today, delivery should be around May/June. I read the article from BMW Car Magazine and was a bit disappointed with the engine but well, BMW made so much promises the car will drive like no other and will be a man/machine in one car. Let's see if it really lives up with those promises.

My plans;

Performance wise:
- Performance intake thing .. something that help breathing in better.
- De-Cat and put titanium exhaust
- Down pipe
- Lightweight Pully
- Lightweight flywheel
- Maybe a set of final drive gear - set
- Will NOT touch the ECU as I don't want to have any warranty issue

Handling wise:
- Sway Bar
- Will need to drive it to know what I wan to do with the suspension.
- I think maybe a front and rear camber adjustment plate

Brake:
- Funny the 135i have 4 pot brakes whereas 1M only have 1 pot, I'll go with some harder brake pads to start with.

Rubber:
- Some cut slicks for sure ... Hoosiers maybe!
- Maybe back to 18" if I can't find any gearset available

Exterior:
- 1490kg sounds a bit heavy for a small car like that and can you belive it actually weighs more than a Lamborghini Gallardo? Will go for a complete diet program. Revozport will be doing all these for me;

- Carbon Bonnet (but will paint to white)
- Carbon Interior Door Panels (something like the E46 CSL)
- Carbon Roof
- Carbon Trunk (but will paint to white)
- Carbon Rear Diffuser
- Carbon Skirts
- Carbon Mirror Cover
- BMW Performance Seats
- BMW xmas lighting steering wheel


Last but not least .... Tinted windows!
