How do you think the 370z is going to stack up vs. the new 1M coupe?

i disagree. aftermarket? you gotta buy a TT kit and have it installed and tuned. the 1m comes with TT and just needs a tune.

bottom line is that its still wasn't suppose to compete with it. Still would be cheaper.

I like the way the 1M looks, but why would I want a car with cool oil temps?!?

I'll wait for the 3M. I hear it's really going to stick to the road (dave covers head to avoid objects thrown at him)

13.2s quarter mile for the 1M? That's not so impressive really. Sure a tune will get some big gains, but I was thinking it would be much quicker than 13.2 in stock form.

I'm sure there are going to be people clicking off high 12s with it stock.

bmw's have never really been known for 1/4mi. not that they aren't good at it. they're just not made for it.

Downhill with a tail wind?

The 1-series is only slightly cheaper (within $5k) and slightly lighter (within 175 lbs) than the 3-series. I see no reason why the 1M wouldn't be similarly lined up to the M3.

So Jeffblue's signature applies to the 1M as well?

So what we're saying here really is, buy the BMW because it's slower, less exciting, more expensive and less well equipped.
