Saying Goodbye to the BMW 1M Coupe |

Many of you have seen this very 1M Coupe. It's quite special and it's really grown on me over the years. Lots of miles, a few laps on the Nordschleife and a few sets of tires. The owner has now decided to sell the car, which means you have the opportunity to to bid on it at auction over at collectingcars.com/

The 1M is my all-time favourite car and I think it will always be...

[@twilightxd1554]

First again

[@twilightxd1554]

would you rather have a EB110 or a 250 GTO?

[@heelandtoe_]

Agreed! By the way, just discovered your channel - love it, great stuff! 👌🏼

[@alecwilliams8425]

The 1M will probably become one of the most collectible BMW's of all time I'm calling it, with low production numbers and being discontinued; I can only see the value of this car going up.

[@winalv6447]

💯💯

[@HustlerTrickipedia]

in general yes, but this example probably not with all the mods and heavy usage, so not a collectors car which will bring the big money

[@alecwilliams8425]

@@HustlerTrickipedia figured I’d edit it to avoid confusion haha

[@ModMINI]

I think you are right and got one while I can still afford it (barely, with a loan, after paying off the house)

[@ModMINI]

@@HustlerTrickipedia I think it will still bring money if it stays clean and well maintained with no deferred maintenance or repair.

Great to see mate, Collecting cars are a brilliant concept and it's great to see they're using genuine "car guys" to promote their platform. Love your work mate 👊🏼

[@heelandtoe_]

Thanks mate, really appreciate the love! 👊🏻They've been great to work with and i really look forward for whats to come!

[@twilightxd1554]

@@heelandtoe_ You do this full time? If so congrats your lucky

[@DigitalDissident]

I have 135i, love the E82, very special & unique platform. Right size, RWD, 6cylinder, easy to tune, incredible sound, no opf filters, no tech gimmicks, mine has no idrive or sunroof.

[@audiocosmonaut3883]

The 1M is my dream car. I'm not looking for the fastest lap time. Instead, I value interesting, characterful and challenging driving dynamics and this is where the 1M shines IMO.

[@denishanjoul1350]

Your video on this car actually convinced me to buy my very own 1M! Sad to see her go. Excellent video as always!

[@johannreymond6495]

Go for it !!!!

[@denishanjoul1350]

@@johannreymond6495 I have her in my garage just over a year now 😉

[@ModMINI]

Videos like this had me lusting for the last two years and I finally did so as well (half by accident, bidding on a car I didn't expect to win). I am done. No more buying and then selling performance cars. This is the one. It's going to save me money in the long run (less buying and selling lesser cars, more holding its value)

[@ModMINI]

I just picked up a thoughtfully modified 1m (black, barebones, no nav, no electric seats) and agree with everything said here. The car sticks like glue. Well, it is a little loud but wow. It is telepathic. The steering, the power, the handling are all amazing. Basically invincible. Solid/poly bushings, clutch pack LSD, carbon fiber driveshaft, exhaust, cooling.... I'm putting F80 M3 brakes to complete the package.

[@stubenrein4603]

There is nothing to add … I have my 1M since 2013 and I love this car since the first day I have!

[@tylerpalmer8973]

Best looking car that BMW has ever put out, and also the coolest. This sits firmly in the list of my top three favourite cars alongside the Lotus Elise and Exige. The exhaust note on this particular car is just intoxicating.

[@_Hangman]

Fitment on this is so on point. Flush with the wide arches, not hidden away or sticking out. Not stupidly low but not factory high. Green wrap on the gold wheels is a good combo. You have done all the right things in modifying this car (wheels, suspension etc).

[@justplay3238]

Perfect tint .color seting 👌👌

[@grahamwilliams2494]

Video had me smiling the entire time :) thanks for showing all the little details

[@PaddyMcQueen]

Keep it !!! Happy to know I m not the only one crazy guy changing oil every 3-5k km.

[@lukecustoms]

Like always! Great video Robby! I'd love to add this 1M to my collection ... but as those things are so rare and hard to get pricing will probably skyrocket...

[@heelandtoe_]

Thanks Luke! I'm with you.. if I could it would also sit in my garage !

[@twilightxd1554]

Audi RS7 or BMW M5?

[@figuwolf7227]

Ein echter Traumwagen 🤗💜 Danke für die Aufnahmen und viel Spaß dem neuen Besitzer 👍

[@pillemannseinsohn]

Everytime I get in my 135i, I wish it would be a 1M. You're so right...these arches are so lovely! Also I really like this color! Just right for this car.

[@DigitalDissident]

I don't, I got a 135i with the more reliable N55 & stage 1+, makes the same power as the 1M. Its way cheaper to have a 135i. Same car without the fenders.

[@pillemannseinsohn]

@@DigitalDissident I also got a N55 with MHD Stage 1 but those fenders make a huge difference. 😍 And the axles are way different to the "normal" ones.

[@DigitalDissident]

They're all great. I had a Sedona red E82 120i, Then got a blue 135... The 120i seemed lighter up front & I preferred the electronic steering. Bought the 135 for the engine power, sound, & performance of course

[@DigitalDissident]

@J B The suspension on the 1M is a lot less squishy right? Besides that, what else...

[@DigitalDissident]

@J B my N55 is manual, thx for the info. Id test drive all sorts of cars if I could.

[@maiwoald8985]

Super Video!! Als einer der um einiges älter ist wie du, lass dir gesagt haben: du hast einen außerordentlichen guten Geschmack und ein sehr gutes Gefühl für puristisches Prazisionsfahren!! Eigentlich gute alte Old School Qualitäten, was sehr rar und gut ist! Kompliment!!

[@TougeTouring]

what a stunning car ❤ sad to see it leave but excited on whats coming next

[@TheShaked98]

Ahja, comming, wird in den Wortschatz aufgenommen

[@rcstringers]

I really like these rims in comparison to the usual Apex or BBS selections, they really give it that aggressive aftermarket look without overdoing the Aesthetic.

[@michaelrieperdinger4611]

What an iconic machine! 🚀🚀🚀

[@myflourishingfam]

Beautiful

[@Precious6308]

This video made me want to hop in my 128i and go for a drive! It’s not the beast that the 1M is but still a fun daily.

[@toshls8190]

1M is when the parts bin car turns out better than the cars the parts were originally designed for.

[@MXMotorsports]

Top Video und noch geilere Aufnehmen! 1M einfach der Hammer !

[@qx4n9e1xp]

Super sad to see this car go, but it makes me excited for all the modifications I will be doing to my 135i. I already have a collection of parts in my garage & waiting for more, for a bushing & control arm overhaul I will be doing this spring. I dream of a limited slip differential and stronger axles, 🙏 but that day will come. Thank you for making these videos & driving the hoot out of that car. You are very skilled and I wish I had the same courage as you to swing my car out like that. 💚🛠️

[@aubreyhinkson7683]

Great video Robby, BMW 1M, M2 and E46 M3 manual transmission, only three true modern M cars.

[@IS300Spartan]

Z4M Coupe too

[@CarGuy87]

Totally agree. The 1M looks so aggressive even sitting still. It's a modify for me on this car not a garage queen. Special cars are meant to be driven.

[@gryphon123456]

Ive always been a tremendous fan of this car. The looks are astounding. This first time I saw that classic orange on the road I was smitten. I have heard issues with road feel in the steering but I’d still take it with this car.

[@ModMINI]

I just got a 1M and I don't know what you are talking about with regard to road feel lol. It's telepathic. Ultra direct, can feel everything, I just look where I want to go and the car goes there. Best steering rack I've ever had. And the end of the line for communicative steering at BMW as everything since the M2 is an electronic rack which is just dull.

[@etiennecfourie777]

Little green MONSTER...superb!

[@mikeh.748]

I for one do think they produced that again. It's called a M2CS. Same angry little "look at me" with the fenders and quarters all bowed out. These are some of my favorite videos watching you drift that thing around corners. Thank you for sharing with us!

[@ModMINI]

The M2CS is technically faster but not as engaging to drive. according to an M2CS owner I know.

[@philip6037]

Super Video, wie immer!!!

[@Savorychicken41]

BMW have been using that same dead pedal forever. Amazing car.

[@serbanmirica8120]

I have two chances to win the lottery until the end of the bidding for this car. If I win I'll definitely buy it and let you drive it again from time to time. Thank you so much for the great videos you did with it and good luck with the sale for the owner!

[@shifty1927]

As an e30 lover.. the 1 series is definitely my favorite of bmws modern lineup

[@ModMINI]

I think the 1M inherited the e46 M3 DNA that the e90/e92 M3 didn't.

[@Stephen-hu8ec]

Slick! Amazing car and video.. Amazing guy

[@patrikhanc1995]

Best 1M in the world

[@luciengutierrez431]

This car and Chris Harris’s piece inspired my decision on the 1M. Thank you. Is 3.45 a good ratio you think for the Drexler and should I get the Recaro CS or pole positions? Thanks bro.

[@ModMINI]

I bought a 1M recently and it has a 3.45 - still highway drivable with extra low end torque. I was thinking to put it back to the 3.15 but it's grown on me. Try the 1 series seats before replacing. Unless you need the six point harnesses, you may find them to be sufficient. The non-electric adjusting seats have quite a lot of side bolster.

[@farturinn]

#healandtoe: Since you don't mind it when people modify super rear BMW's then you should have a look at my 1995 M3 GT 111/356,, I converted the S50B30GT into a BiTurbo in 2008, and installed ceramic brakes in 2007. I still have it so if you fancy a drive ;)

[@richynp]

what color wrap is that

[@TheDrakensangFan1]

I bet the Owner will regret that he sold it

[@ModMINI]

I will only forgive owner if replaced it with a 911 GT3 RS or Ferrari 488 GT3 or something.

[@tma78]

imagine if the guys who design and build all of our roads were all car enthusiasts. from the politicians right down to the guys putting the lines down.

which other 4? Which do you think is 1?

Alle 3tkm Ölwechsel...man kann es echt übertreiben.Das ist kein hochgezüchteter Ferrari Motor!

[@HustlerTrickipedia]

wenn du das ding regelmäßig auf der strecke benutzt und es dementsprechend benutzt wird bzw das öl durchgekocht wird (da der 1m ja eh bekannt ist für hitzeprobleme), ist das sehr zu empfehlen :)
