While offered in a wide variety of body and engine configurations, it perhaps should come as no surprise that the high-performance team at BMW’s M Group would also work their magic on this fun, little rear-wheel drive coupe. In addition to widening the car’s front track by 2.9 inches and its rear by 1.8 inches, BMW’s M Group also shoehorned a twin-turbocharged, inline 6-cylinder engine under the hood. This 3.0L N54-spec engine featured twin, low-pressure turbochargers to limit turbo lag and mated them with an air-to-air intercooler and a direct fuel injection system. The result was a powerplant that produced 335 HP and 332 lb.-ft. of torque and garnered the 1 Series M Coupe 2011 Car of the Year honors from Evo magazine. The example on offer is a 2011 BMW 1 Series M Coupe finished in Valencia Orange over Black Boston leather interior and is 1 of just 983 examples produced for the U.S. market. Hailing from The Michael Fux Collection, this potent pocket rocket comes equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and both the Premium and Convenience packages, which include power front bucket seats, Harman Kardon surround sound system, navigation, SiriusXM radio, auto-dimming rearview and side view mirrors, comfort access keyless entry, and park distance control. Other desirable features include Shadowline exterior trim, 4-wheel ventilated ABS disc brakes and 19-inch Y-Spoke 359M Silver alloy wheels. https://www.mecum.com/lots/1103015/2011-bmw-1-series-m-coupe/
