So I took my 1M out of storage today

Have not driven it since October? Maybe November. Have had the M2 since January.

Hmmmm, random thoughts
My GOD I hate the rev matching in the M2. It was the first thing I noticed in the 1M - the lack thereof and I loved NOT having it.
The M2 seems better planted. Tires were spinning in the 1M like crazy and I wasn't really getting on it (they were 5lbs down on pressure).
Love the single push and hold to shut the car off on the 1M
Ride seems much less... firm? taut? in the 1M. I used to think it had a firm ride until the M2 came along.
Missed the sound of the M2
Noticed the lack of sunroof in the 1M right away. I never notice that in the M2 - no clue why.
I can't believe how much better the 1M steering is vs. the M2. It just does not compare.

Anyway, I love my M2 as my DD and I'm just not sure I can justify having both cars, and as much as it pains me, I think I have to let the 1M go.
