"It might be an entry-level Bimmer, but the 1 Series M Coupe has the same swagger of all the ultimate driving machines and hangs tough when compared to its much more expensive sibling, the M3. The 1 Series M Coupe, in fact, borrows heavily from the M3, but only where it needs to. The rest it does all on its own."—Official description[1]
The 2011 BMW 1 Series M Coupe - abbreviated as "BMW 1M" - is a rear-wheel drive sport compact by BMW.
It appears in Forza Motorsport 4 as an Amazon pre-order bonus,[2] although later made available in the Launch Bonus Car Pack.
Since then, it has appeared as standard in every subsequent Forza main title, as well as in Forza Street.
Synopsis[]
The M Coupe was developed by BMW's performance branch M GmbH to extend its lineup to the compact car segment. Using the chassis from the first generation BMW 1 Series and the twin-turbo inline-six from the BMW Z4 sDrive35is with 335 hp (250 kW), the M Coupe combined the agility of a compact car with the power usually reserved for larger cars.[3]
The M Coupe was produced from 2011 to 2012, and was followed up by the BMW M2 Coupé for the 2016 model year.
