Haha... You know what he means. It's like seeing a Ferrari 288 GTO next to an F430. F430 who?

The 1-Series coupe is a hot-rodded Euro-stationwagon, as it turns out, the redesign works nicely. While I dig my car, it's abundant performance, both in application and persona, that's all fine, however, it ain't the M1, was never intended to be. BMW will never reapply the moniker, how would they excuse that ultimate absurdity?

I would buy a 135i M if they only added limited slip and Dinan software hp levels. Maybe they could throw in fender flares to allow wider tires?!

They should have put a real LSD in the 135i, dialed out the understeer and called it the M135i in the first place...

Then BMW would be faced with the unsurmountable difficulty of selling the M3 in any profit producing numbers. (It's not like it sells like hot cakes even now, let alone with a smaller lighter brother stealing its performance hat).
