I am counting on 55k and hope to be surprised with a lower starting point and a minimalist approach, ala 1M.
Let's assume the car costs 55k... for 62k, you get an M3 which overall will have far more standard features and a power plant on another level. The 1m was special in comparo to the older m3 because you received a turbo motor... here everything will be subpar.
The 1M was special compared to the E9x M3 because it received a 135/335/535 engine!? Am I reading this right!? :
The 1m was only special due to low numbers, otherwise it was nothing but a quasi m car.
