SA Racer compares 1M to e30

[M3 Ryan]

The 1M is one of the few newer cars I would actually want... I might get one in the future, I dig em.
I really want a 130d 4dr wagon, but it doesn't look like we will be getting them in the states...

zeeh jusst a wonderful car !
Like to have a 1m but would not trade my e30 m3 for it!

I like everything about the 1m except how it looks. And when spending that kind of $$, that's pretty important. I have yet to see one, with a body kit, paint job or whatever that can make it not look like retard tried to draw a picture of a 3 series and got the proportions all wrong.

well of course, but for days like today, snowing in Portland, I'd love to have an RS3. Would be nice to have a german subaru killer for the mountains as well.

If I were living where it snowed, I'd likely have a 4x4 truck, or a UR Quattro turbo with studded snow tires ;) I don't care if the newer car is safer, faster ect, it just doesn't do anything for me.

Hardly Available ;) Guess BMW doesn't want them to eat into m3 sales.

They only made a limited run for a year. There's two in Portland.

They're as available in the US as they were in the rest of the world. Limited run of the end of a chassis spec.

Agreed, until I saw this one. If I had the $$ to buy one, I'd have the money to do this:

And it's gotta be even better in person.

Well no $hiat. Haven't seen em around.

I see, stand corrected.

We sure do get the short end of the stick round here with German cars, I swear they must think Americans can't drive or something. Maybe there's some truth to that...

Until you've driven a 1M.. Pretty much no other car in it's price range compares.
