As I have been asking on this forum for your advice, I think it is only fair to let you know my final decision for my new car. I had following criteria: don't want to see it every day, if possible a coupe, not slow , but still a bit practical (I also keep...  

I too think I will end with a " M "... Probably M3. Probably 6 Cyl.... Enjoy! Nicolas.

Suppose an E36? I also looked at the E46 CSL, but already too expensive... Good hunt, Dirk

But the next stage will be the M3.... If I still have my driving license. ;)

The E30 will always be the most iconic M of all time, did you know mister B Le Conard used to drive one ? It almost ruïned him, so expensive to keep on the road he decided to burn .. errr sell it. The E36 is a good choice as a second classic-car .. or sho... 

But I would love to gather with you! Best, Nico.

get C4 :) but this is awesome choice as well My friend Bimmer fan told me that 135i M is as close to original M3 as you can get He opted for 235xi M.... delivery in 10 days Now I have this issue with cars and colours There is one saying that goes.... Gold... 

Hi Dirk, congrats on your choice. IMO this is the very best you can get for the money ! I once drove a 335i Sports with more power and it was fabulous, this 1M or are you going for the M235i ? will be even better! A wet dream for every I-series owner driv... 

The difference is: it is a real M car, the M235i is not. The m2 though.... You know, after a search you fall in love with the complete package, yes the new cars will always be quicker as the previous ones. 1m has 340 HP, the M2 will have around 380HP and ... 

It seems we just found you a good nickname! ;)

IMO the 1M is the best choice ... you could also opt for the M1 :-) :-) :-) Filip

The problem with collector's cars is that they often only see a couple thousand kilometers of driving per annum. I hope this one is enjoyed extensively!

....they don't usually allow cars on it :-) Nice choice, Dirk

I wanted 4 doors and the v8, so I went with the last generation m3 sedan, which is awesome, but probably not as fun as your 1m Congrat's, John

Great choice. The V8 is a fantastic engine and the 4 doors saloon makes it even more special. I also considered that exact config. Enjoy yours, Dirk

A very rare and special car. Congrats and enjoy! How many kilometers will you be driving it per annum?

Driven by rarity, but by the fact that I liked this package most. Don't worry, the car will be driven. I expect around 10,000 km per year. Hope to go to the nurburgring - nordschleife this summer to add x times 21km ☺ Cheers Dirk

But I'm a huge fan of the E92 M3 and I'm sure the 1M will be great fun on the track!

Please do share some pictures when you get your M1! Cheers, Anthony

a great choice. Back in 2011 I had the pleasure to test-drive it at the (internal) BMW test track in Leipzig, together with friends from the LOG and not to forget Walter Lange. A professional driver gave us a ride and it was just unbelieveable what he was...  

And yes, amazing what you can do with that car... Time to meet again sometime, what do you think? Best my friend, Dirk

we should work on that ... :-) Cordially, Oliver
