Here's an update on the transmission. As indicated in the press release, it actually is a new development. It won't be exclusive to the 1M, but -- again -- it's new.
Best regards, south

I, for one, don't like the idea of it being new. One very appealing thing about the 1M is the use of M3 bits that are proven already. A new transmission might sound good but I'd rather not be the first to test it. I am by no means jumping ship over it but I'd like to know more. Getrag? ZF?

The Super Sports are not available in the US yet. I have a set pre-ordered through Tire Rack (yes, you can already pre-order them and pricing is set, but estimated shipment is after 4/15 in very limited quantities and sizes). Does it sound familiar: not limited production, but wil be hard to get! LOL

The car at Geneva hat Pilot Sports on it.
Where can I see if it's PS1 oder PS2? There's no "2" on the tire. Edit: Ah, "Pilot Sport 3" is another series for not so sporty cars. So, there are Pilot Sport on it. |

1. The original ones, ofter refered to as PS1s (although this is a misnomer as the tire sidewall simply states Pilot Sport) have been long discontinued (though you still can buy them as a replacement as manufacturers are required to keep extremely small production over a few years after a model is made defunct). The Pilot Sport (misnomered as PS1) looks like this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....el=Pilot+Sport 2. The Pilot Sport PS2s, or the second generation of Pilot Sports meant as a replacement of the above^^^, are the ones we have seen on every 1 ///M so far. They look like this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ilot+Sport+PS2 3. There is currently a Pilot Sport 3. It is not widely used (and reviews have not been kind), but nevertheless they are OE equipment on cars like the Audi B8 S4. They look like this: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....=Pilot+Sport+3 4. And finally, the one I am hoping for, as it blows all ^^^ 3 out of the water, is the Pilot Super Sport. It looks like this (up untill recently, it was only available for sizing on the Ferrari 599 GTO): http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....ot+Super+Sport

Didn't catch a glimpse of it, but it would make little sense to have a mixed bag ot tires front and rear...
