Current 135i manual = 3373
Current M3 = 3704
1M = 3504 or 3173. If it's the latter 1M becomes more attractive, otherwise still a VERY good car but not a titan slayer before mod.


Check out the width of tire compare to E30 M3, holy crap.

With weight said to remain nearly equal to the 135i's, that should give the 1 M a weight-to-power rating equal to that of the previous M coupes with far better weight-to-torque than even the M3.
