Look at 1:20 into this video
Wow, thanks for that.
I was under the impression that the 1M was a 1 series chassis with M3 sub frames, suspension and steering components.

The video says, "essentially", so for the most part the 1M seems to have much in common with the M3.
But, I wonder what "essentially" means? IOW, what are the differences?
I haven't read as much on the 1M as some of you, but I clearly missed that.
Can you point me to an actual technical review of this information?
Much appreciated.
