I thought I would add a few more pictures of my car.

That's about as perfect as it comes. Wow!

I'm in Utah a couple of times a year. I'd love to get together sometime to see your 1M and your E30 M3--maybe next summer once you have the M3? It would be cool to get pictures of your M3 with an AW 1M.

You may know him already, but Josh Clason (filmmaker of Depth of Speed and Petrolicious fame) is in Salt Lake City and would probably love to see your BMW garage--especially the new addition.

Congratulations! I'm really happy for you.

We have a Cars and Coffee every Saturday in SLC and a pretty active BMW group that meets up several times from spring to fall. PM me here when you get ready to come to SLC and lets see if we can't meet up. Not sure if I have met Josh or not. I know a couple of Josh's from some of the BMW meets.

Awesome!

P-21s total auto wash works well on the old cosmoline in the engine compartment. Just take your time and let the product do the work. Remember the paint does not have a clearcoat.

Thanks for the tip. So far the engine looks pretty clean, but I'll be taking a much better look at everything soon.

Piets94 · 12-07-2013, 03:04 PM

I think keeping it stock is a great idea. BUT, an s50b32 in that thing would be an absolute rocket.
The exterior looks very clean. Congrats on the acquisition

yemski · 12-07-2013, 04:43 PM

nice congrats on the m3, there is a white one just like yours I see parked in my neighborhood and there is something special about this car.

Redadair · 12-07-2013, 06:27 PM

Please let me bore you a minute with some history of the BMW 1M and the e30 M3. We all know that the e30 M3 was created by BMW Motorsport (homologation) that required 5000 units to be built for road use before BMW could then race the M3. The e30 M3 was the most winning car Ever in the Touring car race class throughout it's production years.

Scroll ahead to 2009 when the then head of the BMW M Group Dr. Kay Segler, planned to build a new M car for the Enthusiast to fill a market below the M3. His is widely considered to be the Father of the 1M. One requirement he had for all the Engineers that worked on the 1M project was to drive the e30 M3 for and extended period and to created a new smaller M car that felt as close as possible to the e30 M3. I think they did a very good job of that indeed.

Some refer to the e30 as the Big Brother, or Grandfather to the 1M. Both cars at least to me are the Holy Grail of the BMW Motorsports group from it's beginnings to current day. I know this isn't anything new, just a reminder

That is going to be an awesome garage combo. I've got the poor man's version of that.
