Expect at a minimum to pay ~$15k for 135i/128i, ~$12-16k for an m3, 12-15k labor + $1500 for coding/ tuning / gauge cluster work for the mechanical portion. 1M body work if same color will run around ~$13k for a full job.

Options like CF roof, BBK, fresh rod bearings, CSF cooling package ( radiator, steering, oil cooler, Trans cooler) coilovers, dinan parts etc are all extra but you save a lot in labor doing it all at once.
Shit, maybe I'll just cut up my 135i later then. Sounds reasonable though, for around the same price as a 1M, get the machine built as it should have been, with a S65.
It's really cool to pic the car with options too and you really can make the car you want. Performance Technic is currently making a grey one in street trim. It's pretty rad.
