M3 to 1M
Has anyone ever gone from an M3 to a 1M, or even what's your opinion about the two cars? I was thinking maybe after a couple years with my M3 I'd get either a 1M, or the M2, maybe even the M4

If I'm not mistaken, Powerbeast went from M3 to 1M and back to the real M car, I mean M3.

Cool comment! You are a true car enthusiast!
Don't laugh too hard, your sig says you drive an X5M.

In what ways will the new M3 be similar to the 1M, aside from the engine config?
Similar weight, I'd guess. Won't be as small, which is part of the draw of the 1M. The 1M was a bit cobbled-together, with lots of parts from the E9x M3 - we'll see what improvements they make with the F8x's suspension/brake components. |

1M is a sick car, I don't know why so many people are talking trash about it. From my understanding, the backseats are pretty unusable, and that for me was a no-go. That and I think they are overvalued (pre-owned ones are still going for the MSRP they had when they were new).
I think it's a solid, small car. Gets much better MPG than the m3, which for me is important since I use my m3 every day. I personally think turbo cars are fun as hell with tons of torque. Still, I like the NA experience I'm having right now (last car was turbo'd) and like having a very usable backseat! |

Do you like your M3? Just wondering, as you are already thinking, "in two years time"...
If you prefer the 1M, trade it now. Life is too short. If you think the M2 will be a hoot, wait. I suspect it will be even better.

Capt. James T Kirk wrote an extensive and controversial review on his move to a 1M. he no longer hangs out here anymore...
http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showt...ghlight=review plus M2, M4 etc etc, you're talking about cars that doesn't even exist right now. Until those cars are out in the marketplace, there's no way anyone can even review for you which is a better car. If you want a 1M, then go test drive one and buy one if you like it. In 2 years the 1M is no spring chicken... Last edited by mdosu; 07-01-2013 at 03:27 PM.. |

I think it looks great....but I also think the M3 looks great. 1M looks mean and menacing and the M3 looks sleaker...both great cars. The M4 is going to look badass and will be lighter. |

Second the rear seats are practically the same. Why people keep saying the rear seats are useless is beyond me. Which "reviews" by the way??

So this is one of the reviewS you read online? Nice try.
Did you miss the measurements I provided? nothing to indicate that going from M3 to 1M would be 'unusable' all of the sudden.
