All of those other cars use the M3 as the benchmark that they are trying to beat because it is the best.
The 1M is not a knock off M3, its an attempt by BMW M to get back to basics. Both cars 1M & M3 should be applauded as the benchmark in there class. I am lost with the rivalry between cars from the same stable (BMW M) surely we are all BMW M fans at the end of the day, lets just get out on the road and enjoy the cars we are lucky enough to own
