    This power increase may be very important. I bought a 2013 M3 knowing it had low power. The dealer told me to bring it back after 500 miles and they could add another 120 hp for $1100 usa. When I brought it back it increased 10 fold in dollars. I dumped the car because of the low power. This power may have been the add to make me happy with the car.

    Best

    I want to buy a black M4 and get a vanity plate that says "Carbine" :D

    (and I think they stopped making the 1 series? replaced with the 2. could be wrong though)

    no we won't.

    :p

    Could never enjoy the E90 M3 because you had to rev it so high to have any fun. Test drove the new M3 a couple of weeks back and they definitely made it a ton more fun! I just can't wrap my head around an $85k M3. That's just silly to me.

    Problem is people are too dumb and can't be bothered to learn the differences between what was the E90/E92, etc.

    As much as I loved my E92 335, imo, BMW has much to learn from audi. Alas, find bmw's old soul again.

    I would have never believed them if they told me that. It would be unheard of to make that amount of additional hp on that motor for that little amount of money. The new F80 on the other hand will be able to make nice gains of power for reasonable amounts of money. Burger Tuning is already making tons of power with these with a mild ecu tune.
