    The Procar M1 series is returning btw. According to Roundel magazine. Obviously not as a full time series I dont think but at least we can witness these cars go again against each other.

    I could care less for the stupid sticker job and the interior job, but that can all be fixed.

    Actually it is an M88...Very similar to the S38, but not the same thing.
    Drop it. Stretch it. Poke it. Roll it.

    There have been one or two ProCar M1 exclusive show races organized by BMW this year over here in Germany.


    Oh, and a random bit of trivia: 2009 there will be a completely rebuilt Ex-ProCar M1 competing in the german VLN championship (for those that don't know, this championship is a series of endurance races on the Nürburgring Nordschleife) against the usual bunch of Porsche 997s, M3s and so on.

    stop talking about this damn car. It's all over the place, and this is a poor example of a ProCar M1. It's owned by a place called Driver Source, which is a mile from my house. I've seen this car in person and sat in it, and I wouldn't buy it. Whoever owned it last thought it'd be a good idea to sawzall the roof, and glue in a $20 e-bay pop out sunroof. It looks terrible. And if he thought doing that to an M1 was a good idea, imagine what other little "perks" are hidden throughout it. The colors on it aren't exactly right, and they aren't in ProCar style. Notice how there aren't any pictures of the roof? The car isn't particularly tall - all the pictures are shot from low. So you can't see the hack job on the roof. To be honest, I think someone just bought a white M1 and had a bodykit made.

    I'd much rather have a regular M1 than this thing. I feel sorry for it, even. They've been trying to sell it for over a year. It was at an event called the Classy Chassis in Houston, where every person who walked by it said "it looks alright, except for that godawful thing on the roof." It ruins it. They're making it out to be a perfect example of a ProCar M1, and they're HIDING the hacked up roof in the process. Might as well be fraud. I just want some nameless millionaire to buy it up and put it in the garage, so I don't have to see it sitting in their show room every day, it's embarassing.

    The people that will buy this car are going to be enthusiasts. Therefore, spotting such a shoddy sunroof which shouldnt be there in the first place is going to kill the sale forever.

    Did the shop do this or the previous owner? bet they didnt think about it before they bought it hacked up
