Chassis parts are almost all taken directly from the current M3, apparently. Designed in mind to rival the E46 M3 as a baseline for performance, with the minimalism of the original E30/E36 M3's (i.e. comes in 6-spd only)

BMW M3 (E92, coupe, 6-speed manual)
- 414 HP @ 8,300 RPM
- 295 LB-FT @ 3,900 RPM (that's torque, in case you still don't "give a fuck")
- Weight: 3,704 lbs.
- 0-60 in 4.4 seconds

BMW 135i (N54 engine, 6-speed manual)
- 300 HP @ 5,800 RPM
- 300 LB-FT @ 1,400 RPM
- Weight: 3,372 lbs.
- 0-60 in 4.7 seconds

BMW could very well be losin it. At least in terms of what the M-sport designation should stand for.

In conjunction with a new CEO, it is rumored the new M5 will also be turbo-
charged. I would agree that it should represent high revving, lightweight engines.

All in all, thank goodness this aint no M1.

Crossing fingers for what the new civic after 6 years(!) might look like..

Ok, you might have me on your fail just as it looks like the 1-series M has not depreciated, if at all. Can you elaborate on why you failed me?

Not really. Just here to talk cars. I dedicated a big part of life to my M3 so thought I'd share some information and have an opinion. I guess that makes me a faggot. Its been well over ten years of this 1-series platform. Sure'd like to see a new one!

Haven't seen one on the road yet.

Just wanted to add that one was really was influenced by MotorTrend's best writer as I too wanted to see stratospheric-like redline on this puppy.

Well, the best buy of the decade?

BMW has clearly said that they are making an M2. Its been spotted in its final testing stages already.
