Yeah saw it. I like the M2 but don’t love it.

BMW ditched hydraulic steering and added a lot of tech to their newer cars. The 1M was sort of a last hurrah to the more analog years. Manual transmission ONLYX. No significant tech except for a throttle amplifying button. Mechanical LSD. Fixed suspension, etc...
The M2 is a good car though have driven it. Wasn’t for me though. They keep adding power to it but I am always searching for simplicity more than added features.

Awesome!

The Valencia Orange 1M! Test drove one and wanted to bring it home, but couldn’t convince the wife for another 2 door in the garage. Sigh 😔 Very few were brought into Malaysia and now very seldom seen on the road. Enjoy your ride 🥂 This is mine, an S54 st...

But tell me: how well does it handle the winter snow? I assume you put a set of snow tires on it in winter... and how's the handling/road noise on the snows when you're driving on regular pavement? (If you can't tell, I also live in snowy climes, and woul...
I like singular vision and a 1 car fleet is my ethos!! Thank you

The 1M does great in the winter!! I run Michelin X-ice3 snow tires all around and have never felt unsafe or insecure on them. I should mention that for years I drove Audis with quattro and was a little nervous about switching to a high performance RWD car...
