BMW 1 Series M Coupe teasers - Click above for image gallery
Fans of the original
BMW M3 might not be enamored by the current V8 model, but the upcoming
1 Series M Coupe promises to bring it back to the source. The Bavarian automaker has released
new information on the more compact M ahead of its
full release in December ahead of the Detroit Auto Show where it'll be finally revealed to the public.
The 1 Series M Coupe packs a 340-horsepower version of the twin-turbo 3.0-liter six from the
Z4 sDrive35iS in a package weighing about 3,300 pounds, with power fed to the wheels exclusively through a six-speed manual. This a departure from the "bare-bones"
M3 GTS that packs a dual-clutch gearbox.
Pricing is slated to come in between those of the existing 135i and M3, placing it somewhere around the $45k mark. Click below to check out the updated gallery of teaser images, including some new swirly ones.
