The first vid quality sucked pretty bad, but still a nice sound.

The second is better but a bit boring.

M1 seems to accelerate quicker than M3 GTR!

well the m3 gtr appears to be a road car (spoiler in rear view mirror looks wrong) but an M1 Procar is 1000kg odd and 480bhp ish

Nothing special. I think the steeringwheel in the M3 doesn't belong in a car with sporty ambitions. Looks like the one in an old volvo.

Default what a sound!

kind of a confusing video, because sometimes its difficult which kind of sound belongs to which car.

and to all video makers: i hate video where you can hear music instead of engine sound or music and engine sound!

isn't engine sound enough music to all car-fans????
Does anyone agree?

but in the end of the video - WHAT A GREAT PHANTASTIC SOUND OF THE M1 - so for the great end - its worth to download it.

That M1 does sound fantastic. The steering wheel in the car of the 1st vid is the same one we had in out E36 M3 (non evo) i always thought it was quite large for the car, but it seemed to be fine. The camera car in the 1st vid is just an E36 M3 adapted for racing with cage, slicks, and suspension modifications im guessing? Handles pretty well.

So the camera car is also an M1?? Why is it so slow in comparison then? I swear the dash looks just like an E36.

EDIT: Sorry i got the 1st and 2nd videos mixed up as i downloaded the 2nd one quicker, so thought that was teh 1st! ops:
So i think its an E36 m3 in the 2nd video. Obviously it sounds a little more special the camera car in teh 1st vid, and is pretty quick 2!!
