it's not "hype". Of course the 'new' generation M car will beat the older generation M car in terms of acceleration. Isn't that a given? the 1M is nearly universally adored by anyone who has driven it. it's not about straight line speed. The 1M is all about how it feels to drive...the same reason people love the E30 M3 and 2002 Turbo. Are they fast? No not really.....are they characterful? YES! The 1M is not a perfect car by any means but it has tons and tons of character! In this modern age of less driver oriented tech savvy machines, that is worth its weight in gold.
