If you put automatic in 135i replica 1M might as well add M badge to Hyundai sports car in my humble opinion.

If it's a converted E82/135i, it was never a 1M anyway. What does it matter? I've never had a good engagement with the 6MT in the E9x V8. It feels mismatched and like it never belonged. An after-thought from M Gmbh. Just my opinion.
