You are definately correct. I was referring to the performance version M series. They probably will not make an M line with the 1 series like they made with the 3, 5 & 6 lines. They will probably go the tii route like yesteryear with the 2002 as the M1 was, at the time, considered an ultra high performance, low production car.
I love how the tii is spelled backwards on the front bumper. Reverse stickers have gotta be good for at least 11 hp!
What is surprising to me is that the 1 series is only 150 lbs less than the 3 series. I'm not sure how much more nimble that will make the car. It's funny how much BMW's have grown in size. My 335 is the same dimensions of the last generation 5 series. The new 1 series is the same size as the 3 series two generations back. It will still look large next to a 2002.
BTW I have been really impressed with the xi in the snow so far. It is a tank with the Revo 1 snow tires.
