Description
The BMW 1 Series M, designated internally as E82, represents a limited-production performance coupe produced for the 2011 model year. Originally planned as a small-volume offering, demand led BMW to triple the production quota to just over 6,300 units worldwide before production concluded in 2012. The 1M occupies a unique position within BMW’s M division history as a compact, turbocharged performance model built on the 1 Series platform.
This example is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over a black Boston leather interior with orange contrast stitching. The exterior features M-specific bodywork, 19-inch Style 359M wheels, xenon headlights with washers, and a set of black kidney grilles noted as a modification. The post-repossession inspection identified some chips on the front end consistent with road use.
The interior consists of heated front sport seats with power adjustment and lumbar support, Alcantara trim, dual-zone automatic climate control, auto-dimming mirrors, ambient lighting, and a Harman/Kardon surround sound system. The inspection noted some creases on the driver’s outer seat bolster. Equipment includes Comfort Access keyless entry, rear parking sensors, Navigation Assist, BMW Assist with enhanced Bluetooth and USB connectivity, and an anti-theft alarm system.
Power is provided by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine, internally designated N54T, rated at 335 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission driving the rear wheels through a variable M differential lock. The chassis features an M-specific suspension system engineered for performance-oriented handling characteristics.
Service documentation indicates an engine oil and filter change and brake fluid flush were completed in January 2025. The post-repossession inspection noted that the tires bear 2011 date codes. Two keys, an owner’s manual, and a window sticker are included.
