They could lighten up the 1-series but it would drive up the price _more_ than its already not-that-low price. I’m sure if we see an M1 it will have some interesting weight figures. Personally, I’d like the sound deadening as if people want a race car…the M1 or something else would fit the bill.

i agree that when they go the extra mile to make something lighter, it becomes more expensive, the price wasnt my gripe. it was the weight vs the hype of a compact BMW like what was offered in the past. its all that luxury stuff that makes it a lard. oh well.
