I'm not sure it's politically advisable for a US administration to agree to a world standard unless it exactly matched and was in the future controlled by the US. My preference is to cooperate and reduce costs/complexity.

Well, you can forget all that. The new car is fitted with a turbocharged straight six. Turbocharging? In an M car? That’s like putting gravy on an ice cream. - Jeremy Clarkson, discussing the S65 and then S55 M3 engines. |

I've seen these seats in a 1er at the Welt, plus all carbon fiber interior. It was sweet....

I've met someone who saw 2 uncamouflaged 1M's at the factory in Leipzig coming of the production line. He saw a white one with "stock" wheels and the Valencia Orange one with the M3 Competion Wheels. Strange because i thought there were only 19" rims but apparently not.
This was during a visit at the factory and the guide told them they were very lucky that they saw that. Of course it was ( as usual ) forbidden to take pictures in the factory. The hoods were open and BMW M POWER with the known colours was clearly marked on the engines. He heard them start up and immediately took them away. They sounded very E46 M3 wise he said. |

Greg Kable has written articles in both Autoweek (Nov. 8) and Autocar stating that the N54 in the 1 Series M Coupe is fitted with larger turbos, higher boost and unique mapping. In addition, Chris Harris in the Evo video suggests same. Neil |
