2011 BMW M1 design details outlined
 
From 1addicts.com

* More muscular appearance than standard 1-series
* Trapezoid grille flanked by two intakes to allow extra brake cooling
* Six piston brakes
* High performance intercooler
* Sportier looking headlights than standard 1-series
* Small lip spoilers above brake duct inlets to provide extra air flow and downforce
* The front wings of the car are massaged slightly to accomodate the wider track. Rear end is also wider.
* Standard 18" 5-spoke wheels with optional 18" Competition wheels (18" will be the optimium wheel size for the M1)
* Signature M side vent
* Broader wheel arches to accomodate larger track
* "Ducktail" CSL style rear trunk (integrated spoiler)
* Rear valance/diffuser area takes its direction from the standard 135i but with open ducts for aerodynamic purpose
* Signature M quad exhaust pipes
* Reinforced carbon fiber roof

So can somebody quote me the trade in value of an 09 370Z with 5K miles?




Kidding, kidding.

Sweet car, but I bet the price will put it in territory that makes little sense.

Too big of a gap under the license plate. Looks like a large mouth bass. But I would rock one.

It's going to cost much more than a 370z and it's going to be another mini-m3.
Cute.

Hmmm. Sorry to say, but if that is the successor to the previous m1, that's a downgrade. http://www.vea.qc.ca/vea/v/bmwM181.jpg

Yeah, that should have called it the M135, or 135M.
I almost bought a 135i before I saw the Z, glad I didn't, this is pretty nice though.
