Hello M3post.
I have been lurking on here for a few months gathering information and am now ready to show you guys my car. Some of you may have seen it yesterday where it debuted with ToyoTires.

I wanted to make the best car possible ( in my opinion) and took what I love about the e82 and what I love about the e92 M3 and combine them into my dream car. Despite this car being extremely modded is the true embodiment of the old BMW M values.

Performance Technic in Pleasanton built the entire car. They didnt cut any corners on the work and really shared my vision and passion for the car and really made everything happen. All of the electronics and sensors work. The AC works and it will CA Bar and be street Legal. They really did everything right and I cannot thank them enough.

The S65 only weights 15lbs more than the N54 that the car originally had so the balance of the car is preserved. The car features a lot of weight savings throughout and is a few hundred pounds lighter than a stock 1m. We do have a CF roof which will delete the sunroof but couldnt install it before Bimmerfest because our black sunroof less headliner didnt come from germany soon enough. The roof swap will be happening in the next few weeks. In the near future Mike@BPM will also be programming a working M button into the car. We will be using the steering wheel buttons from the 1M and Mike through his talents will be making it fully functioning. It is a small detail but again one that brings this build closer to a factory package.

In addition to the m3 motor and tranny the car has M3 steering, m3 subframes and suspension both front and rear and an m3 driveshaft and differential. It is essentially a tiny m3.

Huge thanks to Everyone at Performance Technic, Revozport, ToyoTires, Stoptech, Recaro, BPM Sport, Targa Trophy, ID Agency, HRE Wheels, Sam@AutoTalent, Phil@ReevesBMW, Harold@HPA, Jon@BMWpartspros, EinserM, Kevin N, Mike@VAC and Andrew@iND.

Beautiful. BMW should have totally made a 1M variant with an s65 engine. That thing must be shits and giggles to drive.

I agree. I have only lightly driven it as the swap is so fresh. We still need to do shakedown and break in.

I will have an exact weight after the CF roof / corner balancing. The car has a lot of weight savings throughout. CF hood, trunk, ( soon to be sunroof delete/ cf roof), Profi SPA seats, Rear seat delete, Braille Battery, lightweight exhaust, Armrest delete, Door Cards, wheels, brakes etc. Added weight of lip and cage.

This will be tracked. I will drive it myself but one of the Performance Technic Drivers, Matt Powers, will be putting time in behind the wheel. We will be rigging the car up with 10 or so GoPro's and hitting Thunder Hill to see what this thing can put down. Matt is an amazing driver and I have no doubt he and the car will surprise us.

It was with ToyoTires. A lot of people saw it with the hood up and at first glance thought it was an M3.

There are some videos floating around but it was only revving up to around 3-3500rpm as again, not broken in. I make commercials for work so I have some solid video stuff planned.

Missed this awesomeness at the Bimmerfest! Luckily I am able to finally see this car on the forum right now! It totally deserves the M badges.
