These days, however, BMW announced that the same end of the year will be withdrawn from production after about 1000 units assembled in total. The official statement indicates that the program of the 1 Series M will not be abandoned completely, but does not explain why it has come to such a decision because the question was apparently sustained.

Customers dinostravano to appreciate the specific structure and especially the 6-cylinder turbo engine with 340 hp with "overboost" that can temporarily increase the power. Sold in the U.S. to just over $ 46,000 (approximately Euro 30-32000), the 1 M to 100 km / h from a standing start in just 4.9 seconds.

According to some, this move of the BMW is only preparatory to the production of an improved version, however, will not come out the first few years.
