BMW 1 Series M Coupé revealed
Thu, 09 Dec 2010The BMW 1 Series M Coupe revealed
The whole argument about whether BMW would use the iconic ‘M1′ moniker on a lowly 1-Series car was finally settled (not that we ever had any doubts) back in July when BMW officially confirmed that the 1-Series M car would be known as the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. And it was happening.
The official announcement saw BMW reveal an official video of the 1 Series M Coupe out on the track sporting the ubiquitous black and white swirls of camouflage so beloved of car makers with a new model to tease. And the tease has continued since.
We’ve succumbed to reporting BMW’s ‘Dance of the Seven Body Parts’ on the M Coupe a couple of times (the last time was in August when BMW started to undress the M Coupe), but it did get mighty tedious. Which is a shame. The 1 Series M Coupe looks like it will be a blast with its 340bhp twin turbo six pot which should deliver a 0-60mph around 4.7 seconds. And here we are already bored with it after the interminable tease.
But the tease is over with BMW’s final tease which briefly reveals the M Coupe in the video below. We’re not sure it counts as a tease when the wraps come off fully, but that’s what BMW are calling it. And this time it’s worth a look.
And the reveal proper is imminent.
