Yeh anyway, once we get the Akra and it is fitted by Andrew at SBM anybody who wants to is welcome to come and hear/see the new zorst while we are down south. Big dollars I am sure so may be worth a look/listen, likewise maybe we could do a Sydney visit for some of you others guys to get an opinion. Will have to check with the owner first of course |

You honestly dont know whether BMW in their " wisdom " might have modifies the resonator or cats in the later production cars to eliminate/reduce the drone. |

Possibly, but the vote on the main forum is also only 50/50 affected. Might try the ex-service manager's suggestion, loosen up everything and retighten (as long as they don't touch the engine mounts....)

I see these things as "tweak" mods. Small changes that add to the satisfaction. There is a difference with a modified CDV in the 1M, it's just subtle that's all. The engagement, particularly the 1st to 2nd gear upchange, is a little smoother and downchanges are also smoother, more positive. The gearbox is .....well, more engaging

Alpine,
When does Andrew expect to receive your exhaust? What system are you getting? Evolution or Slip-on? Downpipes no Downpipes? Wirless Kit no Wirless Kit? Carbon or Titanium tips? Cheers Quote:

The exhaust is imminent, we were guaranteed first production run, i have a date that i expect it, but i have been let down before on this product. Let's hope that my expected due date is accurate. It is very close.

As far as "what configuration am I (the lovely wife I mean) getting?" goes, I think the whole box and dice, am I right Andrew? Full system, Wireless, Carbon tips |

As I said in a previous post, maybe we can have a GTG in Syd somewhere, get a few "group thing" shots of 1Ms AND 135s and have a lunch or something. An opportunity for a BMW single/twin Turbo soundoff and some general car banter, you know "I got a JB29 and it's faster than......." stuff (insert overweight middle aged guy having a chuckle). Maybe Andrew might take a trip up the Hume and come along for a shout with his Akra order book |

I guess people are having second thoughts on spending 120k under current economic climate... If only I hadn't bought the 135 earlier this year

New member here, thought some might appreciate these shots of a VO 1M I took at the RAC track here in Perth.
A few more on my website: http://www.janglovac.com/blog/2011/12/24/bmw-1m-coupe
