 CylonRedPremium,MVM join:2000-07-06 Bloom County | It is a M series - more HP, better suspension and brakes. The original E30 M3 way back in the 80's was created for racing and it won everything it was raced in. They eventually changed the rules to prevent it from running.
The newer M3's are more luxury on top of the added tweaks. Usually command $10+K more than a regular BMW (330i, 325i etc...) or more.
The 1M car is fantastic and a limited run was done... Very expensive and only 2K made.

The M1 is generally considered to be the first super sports car. »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:BMW_M1_1.jpg
Its styling was used by many other manufacturers. -- Brian
