I absolutely love 135’s. But they are only 200lbs lighter than the M3. I hate when people bitch about the weight of the V8, that engine weighs less than an S54. The single turbo and LSD will be nice improvements for an “M” version 135. I personally like that you don’t see 1’s too often, makes me want one even more. I really like that BMW has a fun small car again, and a 4 door M3, both great moves. 451 hp would be awesome, but you could easily get that power for less than BMW will charge you for it. ---

Things I read and like are the LSD, 3 inch wider body and stance, bigger brakes, M3 suspension bits but not the active shocks so coil overs are a good upgrade. N54 or the Twin Turbo engine, not the Single. There are more differences between it, but the aftermarket is not there for the Single Turbo N55 yet. Basically I could bolt up my procede, intercooler, intakes, possibly downpipes and Coil overs, and have LSD, less weight, wider tires, bigger brakes. and around 400whp. Doesn’t sound so bad all in all. X… ---

> [@Willybeen](#): > > Its about time, but it better have a lot more than 300 hp. It will be over 300. My guess is about 330-350 max. But no matter even if it is 300hp, a simple tune will take care of that 😉 ---

I’m betting mid 300s at the most, leaving more for the tuning market, and in turn possibly selling more vehicles based off that. But I thought I remembered reading when it was initially announced it was a limited run kinda thing, like 3000 total? ---
