Post some pictures! A couple weeks ago I actually asked at Paul Miller when a 1M would come, just to see it in the flesh and they were very rude to me and didn't even give me an answer..

I guess they were nice to you since you came with money

I have had an issue posting pic's as I use the iPhone bimmerpost app and I don't have photobicket on the phone. I haven't been home since. I want to sleep in it, it's that sweet. My friend AWE92M3, was with me when I picked her up. He is posting pics or me.

Thank you. And to everyone else thank you as well.

I want to address a few concerns we have all had with the car and my first impressions:

1) Clutch Delay Valve- Non existent issue, my brother has a 135i and when I first drove it before he did the delete, and it was annoying. This car doesn't feel as though it has the issue.

2) The LCI Headlights are amazing. The angel eyes are so much crisper and the ring is much more defined.


More to come.....

Anyone waiting to see the car in person, don't! Order it now! Pics DO NOT do this car any justice. Makes the M3 look like it needs to hit the gym. Haha Complete beast on the road.

Yes VO all the way! Looks just great in the sun.

Happy for you, very jealous, these first cars to be delivered in the US are making the wait for the rest of us here very hard...

from what i heard from my friends from FL i didnt think salespersonal in the states would act like they do here in tirol...



when i went to the biggest bmw dealer in our area to order an m3 (which i now changed to a 1M) the store clerks wouldnt bother to stand up from the bar they were sitting at - fully ignoring me at first

i am looking forward to pulling up at the restaurant where they are having dinner with their boss...

with the new 1M sporting a licence plate holder from their competitor...

sure their boss is going to ask why i didnt order from them...
