The one m was my favorite BMM when it came out and I still love it even though I am a Audi man. Love the video Joe lots of surport from South Africa bro 🔥
Got mine last year and drove 10,000km in 11 months. Almost entirely weekend mileage. Almost one full tank every weekend. Everyone talks about values, but the increase is almost negligible as an investment. Hoping for maybe $10k increase over a full decade withholding mileage is terrible investment IMO. I wanted a nice example when buying but now I can't stop driving it. Screw investment, I'm going to drive 100k kms out of this car.
Personally, I think the 1M is firmly in the top 5 BMW’s ever made ( my other’s are the 2021 M2 CS, 2004 E46 M3, E39 M5, and the unmistakable 507) Aesthetically, the 1M is a masterpiece of sculptured BMW beauty.
Really enjoyed the video, Joe. Great to hear about the "feelings" a car evokes, rather than too much on spec and comparatives. For me, the "feel" is what this car is all about. All the usable (road) power that's needed. Power delivery and steering feel is basically unmatched. I genuinely feel very privileged to own a 1M. It's such a special little thing. Completely standard car with exception of an Akra - just to hear it sing!
Always loved the 1M, the local dealer had a Valencia Orange demo vehicle back in the day. I currently drive an e82 125i 6mt remapped to 284hp. 10% of the value of a 1M, 90% of the fun. Very sharp and pointy, seat gets low compared to a Gti etc plus a 3L NA straight six, what not to like.
I was filling my m140i up a few months ago and a 1m pulled up behind me, such a fine looking car even after 10 years, one of BMWs finest back when they new what drivers wanted
Love this mate. You should do more reviews of older model cars! The new models are getting a bit boring these days and not very engaging etc. We want more noise, Manuel shifting and excitement! Be interesting to see what the 2022 models will be like with the new mandatory speed restricters on them next year :( The worlds gone mad!
The 1M and the OG M2 were special project cars from the M division. They look unusual but that's because they have bits and pieces added later to enhance performance. Both are fantastic. The 1M has the fantastic N54 engine and the OG M2 has a trick track-spec N55. The later M2C is heavier and has some styling tweaks but it's still good car as well.
Me too bro! People have slept on the fact it's a one series with the last NA inline six and only 3000lbs. Future collector for sure! Daily mine, best car I've ever owned. Be well friend
@@mikeb2496 i got poly subframe bushings, bilstein b14 kit with eibach springs, mfactory 3.73 lsd, 3 stage intake manifold & cold air and scoops, all front/rear upper/lower m3 control arms, thicker engine mounts, m3 tie rods, brembo pads/rotors + braided lines, e46 m3 trans mounts, poly diff mounts, Apex arc-8 forged wheels with pilot sport 4's the car is an absolute joy and never gives me problems
Freemaysin how you like the m suspension bits. I have the m sport kit with a "stripper package" and 6mt. Your Car sounds awesome! I was thinking of solid rear subframe bushings as many forums argue the rear sub is the softest piece of our suspension.
@@mikeb2496 i wouldn't do anything solid, i had solid engine mounts and it was terrible. Went to some 55 durometer mounts and it was a huge change, the stock are 45 but they are the old fluid filled ones they are garbage over time. I can't describe the changes I made any other way than a complete switch up. I bought the car (08 6 speed n52) for $6600 with 107k miles, and put about $5500 in parts wheels/tires/suspension/mods and while i did all the suspension at the same time, i did the 3.73 lsd seperate from the 3 stage manifold/tune so i could tell the difference. I for sure could tell there was a change after the manifold and tune, it opened the car up alot, not drastic but definitely changed its accel. Then the LSD made a world of difference. But overall the car feels so tight and well balanced, its crazy. I have a new valve cover gasket set, and some MILVS (modified intake life valvetronic supports) they are the closest thing to a cam we can get for the n52, i'm gonna do those this winter. I am waiting for supersprint to have a sale on their ceramic headers and i'm going to do those as well. At that point the car will be done.
Great video as always Joe. My 1M turns 10 yrs old this month but the car still turns heads. Also, one correction, the M button just changes throttle sensitivity. For extra torque, just kick down the accelerator for over boost up to 10 seconds.
Beautiful scenery, STUNNING example of a car and great video. Love the 1M, always have. Hence I feel my N55 manual M2 is the next best thing for alot less money. I’m sick of hearing bullshit about “not n M engine” when we all know M still breath on the engines with M parts and as you say the way an M car drives is what makes it M.
I have both! And ive pushed them to the limits and yes the M2 comp is more capable and the high end torque in the S55 Is amaizing but…. The 1M feels more special the steering feel is something else! the looks and just everything about it makes it feel way more special than the m2comp!
eXX Series BMWs had the best steering of any car. The weight and feedback unsurpassed. And I've driven every M car since. Even my e91 320d had better steering than all new non-hydraulic M cars.
@@marlborom2c829 "Progress" the OEMs have prioritised cost, space, weight and electronic connectivity/adjustability (driving modes). In my audi this is just varying weights of non-feedback. Real shame.
I was very privileged to drive one of these on the day of UK launch and have loved it ever since as one of the few cars I instantly wanted to own (although couldn't afford sadly)
Great car. I wanted one when they came out but did not have the means. They were discontinued when I bought my M2. The 1 series M Coupe will very likely become a classic that will increase in value over time. Especially considering how few were made.
Owned a 1M for a few years. Sold it and bought an M2 and sold that for an M2 Comp. The M2/M2C is a superior vehicle in every conceivable way, barring steering feel. That said, the 1M will always feel special.
Great review once again Joe! This car is so epic! I recall thinking whether I should get one of these before purchasing my M2C. For a 10 year old car and considering the raving reviews the M2C receives, it says a lot about the 1M. In Australia, there are only 6 for sale country wide at this time - an easy choice for the collector. Thanks again and agree it was great of Seb to share his pride and joy with a lunatic such as yourself...lol :)
@BMW1M I ended up buying the 1M about a month after I posted this. Your assessment is 100% on the money for both platforms you mentioned. I adore the 1M and would have trouble raising the courage to sell it, even after only a couple of months ownership. I’ll still test drive a G87 M2C when they’re released, but I might wait for half a decade and join you in Porsche ownership when that becomes an option financially for me!

The best thing to come out of a BMW factory since the M-Coupe "Clown Shoe"! Owned a 1M in South Africa back in 2015, thirsty girl but one of the most entertaining cars i`ve ever owned!
I waited along time for this one, always wanted to know what your opinion is of these. I'm not at all biased having owned mine from new and still totally in love with it 😁 Mines not totally stock, ac schnitzer rs coilovers, akrapovic, performance seats andc18inch wheels.
What! This video really captured my interest - excellent content and very little out there on YT for the 1M, thank you for making this video - made my evening to watch. Love these cars, like the M2 CS they're so iconic their biggest problem is I'd feel obliged to keep it stock yet with a few mods I'm sure it would really excel. Not an issue with the M2 Comp where you can use well chosen mods to really get the best from them. Worst thing about the 15 lb ft overboost function is in LHD vehicles the hand you change gear with is the same hand you need for that button. WTF? I'm guessing RHD owners feel rather smug they're not juggling between overboost + snatching another gear. I'm sure the demand for more content on the channel featuring modern classic BMW's is super high, hope you can get more vehicles of this ilk in the future to test drive. Double thumbs up 👍👍 five star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 vid right here. Nicely done 👌
Great review of this car especially being the "predecessor" of the M2. It was also good mentioning the size difference between the two cars. I have always felt like these cars remind me more of the E46 M3
Reminds me of my E39 sport, well weighted steering and great feedback I must have good steering, reluctant to change it for a car with "no feel steering".
Love these, they look so right in an almost cartoon like way. There’s something about older cars for sure. I’ve recently swapped my M140i for an old 130 and the latter is more fun at sensible road speeds.
This is the car which is have all BMW spirit and sheer driving pleasure,one of my dream BMW's ever.Angelic eyes,not exagerrated front grilles,perfect fitted wheels,pure BMW lines and futuristic shape...I can clearly say this car is the true example how a BMW should be.(But not good as E46M3 CSL as well😂)
9:20 "What a great engine". Yes , of course, it's the N54. Add an MHD tune to it, and you're on par with more recent M cars in power. My N54 powered 335is lays down 420 whp with MHD and a few bolt on externals. Great video, btw!!
What a beautiful car, all original, 6 speed manual, and fantastic sound! 👍 The digits on the righthand side of the numberplate (02|10) show that this is a February-October 'summer-only' car. 😉
1M is more immediate in response. N54 is more reliable than most S series engines. BMW did not put a DCT in it because the 1M would be faster on the track than an E9x M3. I wonder if he did not delete the clutch delay valve?
Awesome 👍 I owned one for 2 years. Was a fun car & enjoyed even simple journeys. EVO mag hit the nail on the head when they stated it was a car that was signed off from the factory when the Boss was on holiday 👍. True statement
Thanks Joe. I really enjoy that you describe the visceral qualities ( or lack thereof) of the cars you drive. Interesting how you seem to indicate the older 1M in terms of "driving a slow car fast", relative to newer M variants. That leaves me all the more enamoured of the 1M, even as it's affordability recedes into the sunset of my dreams.:)
Amazing car, I just wish they made a convertible version as IMO the 1 series convertible is much better looking than the coupe, with the roof down it gets rid of the slightly high roofline, and with the roof up the smaller rear window looks more aggressive.
Most desirable (to me) BMW made in last decade. Actually a baby BM unlike the ever increasing size mammoths of late. Values show just how desirable these are.
BMW’s of this era are mega, but they have a huge issue! Driving position is just WAY too high. My e92 seat wouldn’t go down as much as it should, and my e46 M3 it’s the same thing. You do get used to it but still… Went from a 992 Carrera 4 to my e46 and immediately went to lower the seat, only to find that it was as far as it would go.
Thanks for the support as always guys, hope you enjoyed this one, massive thanks to Seb the owner 🙏
Nice car, congrats to Seb on this beauty
Great to hear your views Joe. And Seb is a top man!

How i feel about my m135i 😂
Congrats, Ghepardo! Keep driving it!
Enjoy it! :)
Really cars aren't an 'investment' see them more of an expense.
Keep enjoying it. No point keeping it tight for someone else.
Awesome, keep driving, my 2013 335i does not rest one single weekend 🔥🔥

335is
The N54 is and will always be a legend of an engine.
Whilst the newer models may have progressed in most respects, to my ears, the older six cylinders sound a whole lot sweeter.....
No Active Sound Design bullshit, fewer noise restrictions and less sound deadening in the cabin
Whilst, lol 😆
Yep can't beat my 130i!
1M is one of the timeless beauty ❤️

It is a welcome change to hear someone pointing out the very real benefits of a degree of roll in a suspension setup.

Agree. I love 1M but I love OG M2 even more. More modern interior, bit better look and sound with same analogue ride feel.
My first BMW was a 2011 1 series coupe, not a 1m , loved the shape still do, and around Bucks they seem to be very popular still.
One of BMW's greatest hits

Would love one of these but the N54 will never be as good as the N52 in my 130i... These should have came with the S65 engine!
Seen them but never known about them. Thank you for the review Joe. You're a lucky boy Seb!!
Modern Classic! Valencia Orange looks amazing doesn't it!?

You could keep it stock sure, but a modded 1M is all the more awesome too! Eisenmann Exhaust, 420Bhp & more!
Great work Joe. 👏🏻 What a car.
I just can’t get enough of mine.
Joe, you need your own TV Show with you travelling around the world, driving interesting cars!
The last great M car 😪 who reminds u of the BMWs of old ...where u can feel and see the heritage
A truly beautiful car. An excellent video. Thanks for making it.
😍😍😍
Another great video,thanks Joe
Fabulous set of alloys on this car
What a beauty that car is
Joe, can u do an extensive review of the dude who makes the 1M CSL, Drive Tribe did one - what to hear your thoughts an how it compares to 1M and M2
Had a 1M for 10 years best car I ever had miss her alot
1M is more immediate in response. N54 is more reliable than most S series engines. BMW did not put a DCT in it because the 1M would be faster on the track than an E9x M3.
I wonder if he did not delete the clutch delay valve?
It is an E82 so the interior lay out is identical
Awesome 👍
I owned one for 2 years. Was a fun car & enjoyed even simple journeys.
EVO mag hit the nail on the head when they stated it was a car that was signed off from the factory when the Boss was on holiday 👍. True statement
Why did you sell it? Do you regret it?
@@AlexGray yes I regret it but at the time only had space for one car
Joe if your interested there is one for sale at Lexus in Swindon in Valencia orange
If you run cup 2s or any really good track tyre the car is so much quicker through corners
my dream car is to have the interior of the E82 retrofitted with a B58 or S58 engine and a ZF8 trans, and the suspension of the M2 CS
Compliments to #sebastiant for having impeccable taste in cars & for allowing us to watch this great video on his pride & joy.
When Joe gets squeaky you know it’s a special car
Great video Joe. Beautiful car. How would you say this compares to a M140i/M240i?
Thanks Joe. I really enjoy that you describe the visceral qualities ( or lack thereof) of the cars you drive.

so funny to see a video made in my hometown!
6:50 I just came from Shmee´s recent clip and the Seb guy has been there as well :O
And now I‘m here virtually too 😄
@@SebTref oh my
Great review!
Love this car!
BMW’s of this era are mega, but they have a huge issue! Driving position is just WAY too high. My e92 seat wouldn’t go down as much as it should, and my e46 M3 it’s the same thing. You do get used to it but still… Went from a 992 Carrera 4 to my e46 and immediately went to lower the seat, only to find that it was as far as it would go.
Good video 😀🔥
Question is Joe, do you love the experience of the 1M enough to put one in the garage and steer away from the latest iterations of M3/M4?
If you liked the 1M... try a Z3 M Coupe, pure NA S50/S54 and prepare for sliding the rear constantly 😅
My economics teacher in grade 8/year 8 used to daily drive a 1M to school, all the M fans used to go insane.
Love them, look fab drive fab to.
ps. Joe the fact that you indicated when overtaking the cyclists... #Respect 👊
This is my dream car, i need to put in the work or i'm never getting it
Low tech, front engine, rear drive with a manual box. What's not to like?
This is a car I wish to own someday
Where's your M3 AWD review Joe?
😍 It's stunning
