Thumbs up New 1M (for me!)

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I just picked up this 1M after a year or so of learning about these cars. I’m excited! I was torn to purchase a new M2 Competition car or the 1M. As you can see I went this direction. The car had just over 8300 miles on it and was purchased from the original owner. Life is good!

I have a question for you, I don’t see the number plaque in the car. Do all the cars come with one or is it more of an aftermarket plaque?

Thank you!

Lance

Thanks all... I just wrapped up misting it off. The car is absolutely stunning. The paint and interior are 10/10. I’m fortunate... life is good!!

More pics - I made a duplicate post above. I couldn't figure out how to delete it, I'll leave that to the mods - sorry!

Loving this little car! I can't wait to go play with it.

Beautiful 1M in amazing condition. Wow. The only number plaque I know about is the '1 of 450' plaque the UK cars got. There's wasn't anything for the U.S. cars from the factory, but some people have made their own or done window decals. Hope this helps.

Check out this thread for a starting point. https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show...php?p=23952281

You can look up your production number (there's a link to another thread in the one I posted above that will take you there -- eventually; see post #7 for starters), but there's some debate about what the total production number is. I won't get into all that...

Thank you, I just checked out the spreadsheet. Pretty good information!

Thanks for sharing.

Sincerely,

congrats on the new ride.
One note though... I dont think it should have been tied down by the rims like that. that for sure effected the alignment. To me thats lazy flatbedding.
