The BMW decision makers had told the public before that they do not see an M car built from the 1-Series DNA because of profitability issues. The car may also conflict with the performance numbers of the M3. Today, the plan is all green lights and BMW is giving a hint that a 1-Series from M-Division will focus on maximizing the sporting capabilities of the car. It will not come in terms of power but excellent weight distribution, handling, and braking.

The thrust of the 1-Series project will not affect the market of the M3 which boasts of 414 horsepower. The new M car will also be an improvement over the 135i and the M Sport. It will most likely a better version of the 1-Series tii concept.

Latest reports reveal new details about the 1-Series M. The car will most likely get six-piston brakes, intercooler, a rear diffuser, and carbon fiber roofing to keep the weight of the car down and make it more stable by lowering the center of gravity.

The modifications should set the 1-Series M apart as an M Division product. The visuals will come as reworked headlights, quad exhausts, Competition wheels, trunk spoiler CSL style, aerodynamic elements, and broader arches of the wheel.

The new member of the M Division will most likely not called the M1. The name is valued so much by the BMW division because of its history. The M1 belongs to a super sports car with a mid-engine design. We’ll let you know when we hear more about its name which might come by 2011.

The new BMW 335is can be purchased either as a coupe or a convertible and delivers the performance expected of the brand. The 335is will have an output of 320 horsepower with a 332 lb-ft of torque. The roar of the engine is a bit lower than what you get from the 2009 Z4 which also uses the sDrive35is at 335 horsepower.

The power you get from the BMW 335is is more than enough though since you will be getting quick spool turbo technology giving you the 332 lb-ft torque at 1,500 to 5,000 rpm. There is also a boost function which pumps things up to 370 lb-ft in short blasts.

The numbers for the 335is Coupe can get the car sweeping from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.0 seconds with the engine paired with a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. The manual transmission slows things down by a tenth of a second. The convertible get to 60mph at 5.2 seconds due to the added weight for the braces of the chassis.

Inside the car, you get some M Sport upgrades to make things look sleeker. You get M Sport steering wheel, sports seats, M driver’s footrest, and gear shift knob.

Well what happend?
I was driving to someone’s house to drop them off, when I was riding back to home, suddenly a cat was crossing the road. Well in the middle of the night, you have some reflections on everything, especially at 5.00 am. Well I slided with my rear wheel against the curb and it hits really really hard! So hard that the wheel was crushed! Here some images of it.. and yes! I wish I had a better insurance for my car!

Stay tuned for more information…

So — still expect some updates from the silver beemer on ourbmws.com too — can’t let the blue one get lonely can we!

Fingers crossed!

I complained about it to the cops who told me they had similar complaints the same week, but they didn’t have the needed tools to remove the large piece of concrete. WHAT THE FUDGE?
