When the akrapovic comes out, I may be tempted.

The torque and suspension and general feel of the 1M is far superior in my eyes.

Alice, you can't be a girl. Girls don't talk like this. Seriously ?

let the ass-kissing begin...typical in every forum. Fellas, yes, there are women out there who actually enjoy and know about cars!

Congrats Alice, welcome in the 1M owner's club

Nice pics of your car, but where are you... ? You promised me pictures of yourself

Thanks for standing up for me. My first car was a 1960 Twin Cam MGA. I even knew how tofix it-- you kindof had to with British cars back then. Even though I was very delicate looking back then my dad thought part of owning a car was being able to keep them running.

BTW I must admit after my 150 mile trek today along Lake ontario I went to CVS to get some nail polish to match Pumpkin. When I first got my e46 M3 a Roundel guy was at Watkins Glen School and posted a picture in the Rondel showing my matching nail polish. It hides the brake dust under your fingernails.

I was one of those that wore a race suit at the weekends! For about 4-5 years I raced karts.

@joanearly - Because I live on a very small island, the BMW does feel slightly wider, but not much. It is really manoeuvrable and racy, just like my mini was. I dont think you will be disappointed at all! The transition would just feel "natural"

I find it strange alice that you have raved about your new 1M, but you have put it up for sale at a very high price saying its not the car for you.

This is getting interesting

From the ad:
"This is my 1 Series M Coupe that I ordered last year, and had one of the earliest build dates in the UK - I received it on May 14th.
The reason for selling this car, is simply because it is not for me, and I will not appreciate is for how special it is!

** PLEASE NOTE - The car is un-registered, and therefore classed as new **"

Very weird indeed she's already selling the car. I might have been right after all, when I said "girls don't talk like this" in the first post on this page.
So she is a girl, and the 1M is not for her.
