My 650 had a similar issue of excess brake dust, but was on the wheels only not up to the arches. Then I was told it's bcoz the pads r new, and yes it reduced after a couple of thousands on the odo.

I guess the radiator that is showing on the picture, is from the front bumper, so left of the wheel instead of above the wheel.
Ah yes sorry. Because of I took the picture, I rotate it automatically but now I understand why it was not clear for you

You yes, the front bumper is on the top of the picture and now you might understand

It was the first time for me to see the 1M Coupe in person. At the first sight you see that it's a sporty ride and that it comes from the ///M department. The car sounds great in person. BMW really did a specific sound for this 1M Coupe. Sound is very different than the Z4 35is that I test drove last week. I liked it. The car is in its break in period and I hope that Chris will come back when he will be *authorized* to push this baby ///M

Here are 3 pics :

Z4M Coupe / M3 E92 DCT / M3 E93 DCT / M3 E92 6MT ZCP / 1M Coupe


Alpine White 1M Coupe / Mineral White M3 / Black Lambo (direct competitor to the ///M... lol)


Le Mans Blue 135i / 1M Coupe / M3 ZCP


I will post more pics when I will have more free time.

I just sat in a 2012 135i with sports seats and black boston leather and the bolsters seemed tight on me and the boston leather felt abrasive compared to M3 leather. Does your car bolsters feel tight? I am 5'10" 200 lbs... a little pudgy but not much. I didn't see a bolster adjustment either.

Is the boston leather in your 1M a little abrasive too?

Thank you.

I found the seats in mine to be grippy enough and the bolsters enough to keep you in the seat, we had no issue while driving the car. They are not race bucket "hold you in place" but way more comfortable.
