No problem, but if we arrange anything, speaking for myself, I'll only be able to meet next week and around Lausanne. But if we do a meet and you would like to come we can keep you in touch. But again so far I speak only for myself...

edit : though maybe I'll be around Geneva after-next weekend but nothing sure so far.

Thanks! I live in Geneva, but can travel to Lausanne - anything is fine for me!

All rights you're welcome! I'll let you know... To speak the truth I think I would be glad to see your 135i too, it seems you did some nice mods and I could probably learn a few things. BTW nice video of your lap on SPA, very pleasant to watch!

taibanl · 04-26-2011, 08:30 PM

You can replace the switch quite easily. Try that

taibanl · 04-26-2011, 08:30 PM

Just replace it yourself

How about an under hood shot?

Swiss Chris · 04-27-2011, 04:33 AM

Hi guys,

I haven't replied for a few hours because yesterday I went to Europapark (GERMANY

)

But... I went with three friends and the 1M is brand new so we chose the 535d...

So I replay there to everybody:

- vidoes : My friend Malcbo is waiting for new material to make great videos from inside and outside

- does the car shift smoothly ? How is it in normal driving ? : It's as quite as the 135i is. You can ride in very high gears at 1500rpm. A real pleasure in everyday use. As long as you don't push the "M" button.........
The shift is supposed to be different from the one of the 135i but... I can't tell where is the difference....

- is it quick ? The car is just 800km and I have to ride another 1200km to use full throttle and run upper 5000rpm, so hard to talk about the real car potential. But yes, it seems to be much quicker than a 135i. It is ALREADY realy realy impressive !!

- Animah has seen a 1M on a truck : A white one ? I saw almost 30 trucks arriving in Switzerland with brand new cars from Germany while is was driving to Germany and on one of them... a AW 1M !! But I think there was no VO 1M on the same truck (it was full when i saw it)

- meeting ? You can see my car when you want around Lausanne

And thanks to everybody for your sympathic messages

Hi!

I'm the guy who took Chris' 1M pictures

Thanks for all the compliments, really appreciate them (especially since it was the first time I was shooting someone else's car, I'm still quite a noob in photography, despite my photo gear)

The camera I'm currently waiting for is the GoPro Motorsport. Should be nice fun ahead and hopefully great footages!

Hello Chris-507, how are you doing? Break in's almost done?

Can't wait to have a ride in it

I see CDR_UK is also here

You may not remember but we've already met at Boxberg for the Nissan 350Z day (back in 2006)

Swiss Chris · 04-27-2011, 07:20 AM

Fine and you ?

1100km to go... :-/

Hi guys, I have two Gopro HD, if you need them, just ask

BTW, would you be ok to go at Dijon-Prenois July 27th (Friday)? That would be a great opportunity to test this car and do some cool videos.

Cheers.

Sounds very appealing to me!

NTTY,

Was that video taken from your 135i? (It doesn't sound like a 135i).

Yep, from my 135

Sound comes from the front Gopro, which might explain why you don't recognize it.

Cheers

I pressed it tonignt. I was at 5'000rpm in 2nd gear, throttle at 2/3. The car brutally becomes a rocket.

Keep in mind that I offen drove M5 e60 and X6 M, recently M3 6MT and DCT, and I say that : once you've pressend the M button, the 1M is a ROCKET !!

And the noise it makes
