You take your sound file, I'll take near perfect balance, reduced weight, and unbelievable corner exit torque and power delivery. Never thought I'd see the day that a self proclaimed Porsche fanboy would trade balance and general car prowess for auditory bliss.

Lol...Your talking like the M3 isn't all of the above...

Ok it's a bit heavier...
 
Just saw one of these yesterday in the bronze color with black wheels blasting down Parc avenue and I gotta say, it looks absolutely amazing in person as others have said. Its low, wide and just dirty looking. Much more drastic change than the M3 VS 335i (1M VS 135i)
 
bronze color?

may be an M individual special order because 3 only colors available.. white/black/orange.

He's referring to the Valencia Orange. Depending on the lighting it can look anything from brown to orange to bronze.

Trop cher... cliss 10 000$ de plus pour aller chercher un 30hp de plus qu'une 135i et quelques flafla d'esthétique c'est juste ridiculous. il aurait du appeler ça une 135i S, c'est pas une M ça.

lol you've got to be kidding me...and this is coming from a 135 owner: how objective you seem.

I have not test driven the 1M yet but I highly doubt that it will feel more ''balanced'' and have more ''car prowess'' than the M3.

The 1M is overweight, as is the M3. Both are heavy cars, both share major suspension components, so I'll take the one with the high reving V8 thank you. I was not impressed at all with my test drive of a 135 in terms of being satisfied on a ''sports car'' level. I'll reserve my final judgment until I have actually test driven the 1M but I doubt that it will feel that much more balanced-pure-whatever than an M3.

As for the sound of a sports car, it may not matter to you, but it does to me when I'm paying 50 or 60K for a basically a toy. My car is balanced, lightweight and handles great, but I would not have bought it if the sound of the engine at full throttle didn't give me goosebumps.

And yes I am a Porsche fanboy. I'm also a Lotus and Lamborghini fanboy. Anything wrong with that?

Okay.. juste mettre un LSD dans un 135 coute environ 4000$.. On continue avec la suspension en alu, le wide body, les fat tire, les mags BBS, les freins, le quad exhaust etc..

C est comme dire esti un STi coute 20 000 de plus qu une Impreza de base.. :rolleyes:
Probablement si tu mets 20 000$ dans ta Impreza de base tu vas etre plus vite qu un STi stock...


Quand je regarde le prix d un Audi TT-RS ou un audi S5... la 1M est pas si pire... ;)

Pareil qui l a conduit ici cette 1M ?? :dunno:

Qui?

Personne... So! :)
