The gearbox is also great fun (with the exception of the shift into 2nd every so often - a well documented issue with this car). Keep in mind the engine produces only 5 less hp than the 1M in a car that is similar in weight. It just has less torque. Both cars are really special, and I'd argue they are the last of the really pure M cars that don't have all of the extras of the more recent cars (certainly debatable).
I traded my Z4M for the 1M - and glad I wasn't the only person with that super annoying 1-2 shifting issue. I was told there is something you can remove to make it better. CDV?
