I am slowly becoming a BMW fan...but have to agree that that color doesn't suit the lines!!!

Hmmm the M symbol lights up in the dash ^_^ is that a normal M feature?

Ya that color does not look that great, lets hope its a different case in person... Some of the pics i have seen look so nice in that Orange/Red, and some not so hot...

White would be the only choice IMO

You may be right... I was going with the orange but after seeing the white, i may change my color choice...

Alpine white, dropped 2.5" by some KW's =

US Pricing announced today: Starts at US$47,000 with no options, including all the fees etc.

Actually better than I expected, but for $50,000 I'm not sure I wouldn't rather have something a little more...

So this competes for price quite closely with:

Lotus Elise
Audi TT-S
Porsche Cayman/Boxster

I like BMW .. but that has to be one of the most boring interiors I've seen in awhile .. nothing about it really screams sports car .. I know BMW doesn't tend to do much for interiors but it's just not exciting. The driving experience better be damn good to make up for it. I like the idea behind it, but in the end I still think the car is pretty ugly. I hope they do a big redesign on the 1 series soon.

FYI. 1-Series M Coupe to pace Rolex 24 at Daytona (Saturday, Jan.29 on SPEED)

Exerpt from motorauthority:

Mustangs, Camaros, and Corvettes are all familiar pace cars to American race fans, particularly those of the oval bent. But a limited-edition German coupe? Not so much. That's soon to change for fans of the Rolex 24 at Daytona, as the 2011 BMW 1-Series M Coupe will be the official pace car for the 49th running of the race in just over a week's time.

The car will carry on-board video for the SPEED television network, and will constitute some of the first on-track, in-car footage we get to see of the car. It'll have to hustle at a brisk pace for a street vehicle, as even caution lap speeds for the GT and Prototype fields are brisk.

Action at the Daytona 24-hour race starts at 3:30 pm EST January 29th on SPEED, so tune in to catch some of the best racing of the year, plus the 1-Series M Coupe's first public laps.

$53,600 CDN MSRP. Not too bad, looks like it's time to sell the 135i now.
