Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Saw it on Facebook, a guy in his 1M chases the new M3 (prototype) on a german Autobahn:

This 1M was tuned and had 420hp!

woah uber cool

TheBingoBalls · 03-14-2012, 06:14 PM

I'm loving the wide stance of the M3! First the front now the rear. This is going to be a very good looking M3!

That would be exciting to encounter an M3 on the AB! Crazy!

very cool video.

And the 1M passed him! Now we can brag for the next 6 or 7 years! (relief)

Awesome. Great vid and M3 looks fantastic. Could be my next car!

MrRoboto · 03-14-2012, 07:22 PM

1M sounds great.

Hold your horses, Dan, as there are 420 of them under the hood of that VO puppy instead of 335/340. So the M3 crowd will whine that "it ain't no real 1M". As you see, we're doomed...

What tune? How about torque numbers?

Yeah cause M3's brake lights were on. I'm sure the M3 can be upwards of 500 HP with a tune!

Powerbeast · 03-14-2012, 08:58 PM

Very cool,I really like the stance on the M3.

Enjoyed that. Thanks for posting

wow... thx for posting. really enjoy that.

Sat there watching with a big ol' grin! Nice find...

Dan Parker · 03-14-2012, 11:20 PM

The M3 is obviously the faster car on the autobahn. I was joking around to continue the silly 1M vs. M3 B.S. It will be interesting to see what BMW does with the engine in the next generation.

///M1 · 03-14-2012, 11:57 PM

Looks like the M3 was gunning it, but tough to tell for sure if it was indeed pedal to the metal. 1M driver played well, allowing for enough safe distance and all. If it were here in the US, I'd recon that M3 might have been cut off at least a 1/2 dozen times just to snap a front shot LOL

Gtrain · 03-15-2012, 01:33 AM

The new M3 seems to be pretty fast or at least the tuned 1M is comparable from the video. Great find.

Dackelone · 03-15-2012, 01:42 AM

GREAT Video! I love it!!!

Alpine* · 03-15-2012, 03:12 AM

Would love to hear the audio in the M3..."WTF I can't drop this little 1/2 arsed M car off my butt!!"

hahahahaha
