seeing how many of these threads have already popped up MONTHS before anyone knows anything about real-live performance of the 1M, i cant imagine what it will be next spring when the first magazines get their hands on one of these...
having said that, the 1M might be a good alternative for a 25 y-o guy who cant afford an M3 but doesnt want a STI / EVO like the rest of his classmates, or as a track toy for those who can afford it, providing it lives up to everyone's expectations for being the new E30 M3...
or for a guy like me who doesnt fit anywhere in the above but just looking for a fun car
