someone thinks the 1 series m coupe is the best BMW ever

[exdeath]

Its an awesome engine (N5x) and it seems like a fun car, no doubt a blast when easily modded. I wasn't saying the car is under powered. I just got a kick out of what came off to me as someone who obviously hasn't driven or ridden very many cars to get THAT excited by a stock 300hp car to call it "angry beast". Angry beast to me means hold on and pray and hope the car knows where its going: in Soviet Russia car drives YOU

OK fair enough, I've only ever been in one car over 250bhp... So that probably would be a hold on car for me, particularly as it goes 0-60 in 5 seconds, that's bloody fast where I'm from.

A car built towards specific thing is better at that thing than a car not built for that thing? Careful, we got some massive insight in here!

Yeah, be careful of that. I hear insight hits ya like an SOB, and can cause unwanted enlightenment and sudden epiphanies.

I like the idea of the 1M. I just don't like the execution of the 1M production/sales.

Just not honda insights. If you are hit by one of those, you deserve it because you had ages to get out of the way...

I've always thought the E36 based M Coupes (with 315hp pushing 3100 lbs) were the best coupes BMW ever produced.

Someone that owns a company in the next warehouse from the place I work at has a M1. It looks weird, too stubby in the front/back.

You did it again. Discredited yourself of any car knowledge or opinion.

Don't you know Top Gear is end all of all automotive knowledge? It's not even like they fake stuff just for entertainment...

That guy from the Wired article needs a run in an Agera or equivalent. Hell, even a GTR, CTS-V, GT500, etc...

Yeah, it's an ugly little pug. I'm sure it's a good car but it has a face only a German could love...
