Congrats man for getting your hands on one of these baby’s, what a weapon of a car. I have had a couple of tuned 135’s but this thing is a beast.
I had no idea how lucky I was
Enjoyed the review of the BMW 1M. Looks like a lot of fun to drive. It has a great sound to it. Pretty good 0-100. A credit to the owner for the work they’ve put into this car.
Thanks 🙏🏼
awesome mate, I have a 135i running 310kwrw with the N54 and it was a pleasure watching this. Killer vid mate 👍
Awesome engine!
Straight 6 turbo combo is unbeatable.
So good eh
Awesome review Johnny! I looked at one of these just last night and was so surprised at how much the price has gone up. Amazing package and probably what the M3 should have evolved to from the E46. Nobody will complain they made a naturally aspirated V8, but this would have been more true to the evolution in my opinion.
They definitely are not cheap! But man one like this perfectly modified is crazy good!! And remember I was driving at like 30% of its capacity
Its like a mini bara with a screamer pipe
It actually is!!!
Damn that is so much power for such a little car.
Oh how I fall in love again every time I see a VL turbo. I survived owning a VL Calais turbo so many years ago and I wish I could have that car again.
It’s wild 😳
Awesome to see an N54 BMW in its best form. I have the poor man's 135i version also modified to similar power and it can be a real handful 😂
Your car is a weapon! ❤🔥
I have a 128i it has nowhere near the power of a 135i or 1M but it’s the most fun I’ve ever had in a car.
Man the N52B30 is a sweet engine. Enjoy!!
All car reviewers love this car. This would be my everyday car if I hit powerball. Fun car, small, easy to park unassuming. Love that you had this on the channel. We know your love for turbo cars, this one is no joke. Great work man 👍
Such a nice car and the owner is a nice person who is always happy to chat about it. I've had lots of fun and races next to it at Queensland Raceway.
great review Ross it’s awesome to see the euro love :)
Couldn't agree more! Hope to show more
As 1m owner who's currently swapping S65 engine I approve!
Unless you have super car money there's not much out there that would impress you. And it just looks lovely don't it? 😂
It’s a super car killer in the right hands! This thing really impressed me! The potential is seriously impressive
I respect the swap but as a previous S65 owner I don’t understand why people put an engine with no torque in these, I can’t see it being as fun. Yes they sound great but I assume it’s a little heavier and will throw off the balance of the car a little? Either way I hope the swap goes smoothly! I do wish these sounded better so the V8 will definitely fix that 🙌
Awesome video once again 👍 I love how no matter what car your reviewing you so it justice....This is on of my favourite cars, I was never a BMW fan boy untill I got an E82 and fell hook line and sinker for that platform.. Across the board those E82 coupe even the less powerful versions are alot of fun to drive...Brintech custom in NW SYD offer a paxkage where you provide the donor car (E82) and they hook it up to the M3 V8....So tempted😊
I don’t know how other 1M’s are but this one is amazing, so we’ll set up, a completely different feel from my e92 n54 6sp manual! Great video!!
Couldn't agree more! This one is tuned to perfection
So glad to see you doing a BMW.
The N54 is an amazing motor.
I've just bought a 335i N54 convertible and absolutely love it.
Good choice! I’m blown away by that motor
good video well explained , but u really get to enjoy it and know its capabilities with m button on and traction fully off combined with over five year ownership and drive it like it’s stolen every time you take it out , that’s when you really get to enjoy it
If anyone says its a parts bin special, they're a knob with no idea, utter little rockets and so much fun, great review.
It’s a weapon.. this car deserves the praise
Glad to se more people experience one of the best M Car ever made!
Like you Said, its modified, but Thats where the car realy shine. It is a litle bit under powered stock, so 400-500hp is perfect balance, with cup2 tire and a öhlins/bilstine/kw kit its perfect 👌🏼 the car realy doesent need more than around 6k $ in mods and its freaking perfect. 👌🏼
400hp in these is a gateway drug. 500hp is getting there, but 600-700 is perfect 😛
Loved the shape
Great shape
I'm a massive BMW fan, and serial owner.
When these came out, I thought wow, a small, 6 cylinder, coupe, this will be great.
Then I saw it, what an fugly horrid thing. I never liked the awful sad looking front lights, the dumpy rear end, the slab of bodywork above the rear wheels, and the chopped off back end like a compact.
The only reason they are worth so much is because they are rare, that is all.
My OG M2 is what the 1M should have been.
The M2 is just a 1M that has been diluted so your grandma can drive it 😘
JK, Love the M2 too, but yeah, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
@@BMW1M I fully 'get' the whole wild car and trying to tame it thing mate.
My last car was a tuned M140i, 455bhp/634nm through an open diff, it was dangerous but great fun. I had it for 4 years like that, and thought I had the taming of it's wild ways. Sideways regularly, but I hit a patch of diesel on a dual carriageway last year, in traction off mode, and it spat me round 180 in a split second, I left the road backwards into a tree and wrote it off.
The M2 is much more predictable, sideways at the slightest provocation but the LSD makes it much easier to control.
Gotta admit, the OG M2 is a good looking car, all the angles are just so right.
Bro forgot to mention the greatest feature of this car... the sound system
🤣 this particular car does have a very good sound system
Hi Ross, can you review a single turbo 335i please? Its got the N54 engine too!
I can help tee up access to all sorts of fast BMW’s if Johnny is interested next time he’s in QLD 👍🏽
If I can find one
You should review Alphonso’s 328i csl. Google that.
Looks like a great car. However, the newer m2s are a step up from the e82. Before everyone hates, I have an e82 track car 😅
I’m testing the new M2 in a few weeks I’ll
See
Dealer mark-ups above MSRP are largely only seen in the US dealership system and are very, very rare in Australia. We had to scramble here to get a 1M allocation, but I don't remember any dealers charging extras above list. I got mine from BMW Sydney and I paid MSRP. No offense to the owner, but you should try driving a stock 1M . . . you might prefer it to the tuned version!
We own a stock one as well (AW) and yes, it's also nice to be able to back-to-back the cars and make sure we haven't gone too far with the black one👌
Edit: I definitely prefer driving the modded one BTW, no question/doubt. These cars have so much more potential/fun in them than what they came with.
Fact: Prices have always been up with this car in the USA. It’s never gone below it’s MSRP price.
It’s an impressive machine
@@RossReviewsau❤
One of the best cars you've driven man it must be good & to think that we got more here than anyone else that's very unusual lol,anyway it seems like an all round near perfect car so I'm also impressed Johnny it's a keeper 👍 nice review mate.
No doubt! This car is the real deal!
Just got an mhd2+ 135i with the n55 and man its the most fun I have had in a car. 1M would be insane being manual.
The N55 is so good I’m very impressed by it
Very Nice little BMW. Sounds absolutely amazing. Super tastefully modded too!
Couldn't agree more!
Great video Ross. Be good to see you compare it to the E82 135i M sport coupe with the DCT - another misjudged little BMW. Awesome video though mate, I love all the cars you cover, its just nice to see some different stuff now ang again...
What are those light up door cards?! I’ve never seen that before on a 1 series?
They are custom 👍🏽
What an angry little bastard! Pyrat! 😆I love it! I love my E82 135i manual for so many of the reasons mentioned. This beastie is next level well and truly. #goals
It’s been modified to perfection
John I need some of your help. I have a nice little Mustang which has everything done to it. Supercharged, flow through exhaust, new suspension all around, all bushes replaced, 10R80 which has been pulled apart and mostly replaced, wheels all round at 20inch but with staggered widths of front 10 inches and at the rear 11 inches. Running Michelin 4s all round grip is good if you take some time to heat them up.Full body kit including moulding all around the arches and arse end. Please tell me what I can expect to get out of this beauty boy.
But what's the stereo system like?.
I spot a Helix dsp.
I have posted a couple of audio system vids to my channel if you're interested 👍
Amazing car
What turbos does it have
It has Mosselman MSL50-65 turbos (for now)
My brother has a 1M, and yes it is a parts car, frankincar
E92 👀
Your reviews also remind me of forza horizon 3, Australian background i reckon does it
We in Australia 🇦🇺 😎
@@RossReviewsau i know i live here
Awesome review Johnny 👍🏽
It was a pleasure handing you the keys to Pyrat, and I’m grateful for the kind words and great footage! 🫶
Can I ask what clutch you're running at that power level?
Johnny? But it's Ross?
Thanks again! What a machine 👌 awesome day
@@DrOboogie13 I use the clutch from the 550i - but I only get about 15,000km out of them.
@@steveedmond9362 Ross is his surname
Love these small cars with big engines, and this car goes well... However, I'd probably buy a 135i over this as it's much cheaper for a similar package, and you can have money left aside for some more power (and repair bills 😂)
The E82 135i is an awesome car for the money - We have 2x 1M's (this one and another that's stock), and a 135i that we use for short course events (autocross/tarmac rally/hillclimb) - that little 135i usually ends up in the top 6, against actual rally cars and super exotics.
@@BMW1M Seems like you love the first gen 1 Series 👍
@@MartinJones123 we have a lot of cars. Only 4 of them are E82’s 🙃😅😂
Damn that steering wheel looks great, cool car aye 🤙
Perfectly modified
That 1M has the same engine as the 335is I had when I was younger which was the N54 It was an amazing car and so so so fast. But man it was so so so unreliable. Idk if i had a dud or what but out of the 2 years i owned it it sat in the shops for 1 whole year out of the 2 years i owned it. I was literally driving loaner cars for 1 whole year on and off.
All work done by BMW themselves which mostly was under warranty but after the warranty it got very expensive quick.
I hear mix things about the N54 some had bad experiences like me. And some swear by them. So i have very mix feeling about them. Love BMW to death.
Gave up on BMW for a long time now. But have been hearing great things about the B58. So will probably try a supra next.
Yeah N54 reliability seems to be very hit and miss. My best guess is, it's all about the person that's doing the diagnosis and maintenance. The techs the really *get* N54's don't seem to have any problems making them solid.
John can you tell the brand and model of the intake??
Back when they allowed people who built cars that gave a crap about the driver’s car
This car is beautiful cant wait till my brother gets finished with his
Awesome cars
What's he doing to it?
@@BMW1M a 1m clone
Hello. You should do a review of my mate's 1M. S65 V8 swapped 1M. Looks like a show car that gets driven all the time. He wins trophies constantly.
Didn't he sell that for $300K? 😉
@@BMW1M No. He decided against selling it at the last moment.
@@mashinajoe So he had a buyer???
600BHP at the wheels and does 5.6secs 0-100kph..A Hyundai i30N stock (front wheel drive) does it in 5.4secs...
Haha the 0-100 in this video in no way reflects what it can actually achieve, with mdm off and some r888rs it'll do it in the 3 second range
@@17t135iyep. Johnny drove it on street tyres with heavy amounts of boost by gear. With more practice he would have been able to get a low-mid 4 in that config, but it’s not really what the car is about anyway..
I30n is trash in every respect. Not comparable. This car would annihilate it. A stock 135i can do 4.9. Not that 0-100 means much. Try 0-250
@loslogo i don't think the i30n is trash in every aspect. It's a little pocket rocket, but comparing the two is definitely apples to oranges.
This thing probably does 100-200 in the 6 second range
What a unit 😍
Amazing machine
My partner just got a DP+Tuned M235i (N55) and it absolutely rails my ST on Ethanol. My next car will be a BMW for sure. People shit on the N55 though but they sound good and weirdly her car is much faster than a tuned 135i I ran
N55’s don’t have the forged rods or crank that the N54’s have stock, but an MHD flash will still give you around 400bhp, which is nothing to be sneezed at!
The 8 speed ZF commonly mated to the N55 also transmits power more effectively than the ZF6 usually mated to N54’s (though some N54’s and N55’s have 7 speed DCT’s).
So yeah, great car!
@@BMW1M trueee all N54 are partially forged? That's good. Yeah she's "stage 2" about 360whp, definitely fast with its weight
@@frogsta360 yes all N54’s have forged rods and crank.
The OG M2 had an uprated N55 with forged rods and crank too, but regular N55’s have cast parts.
Hey man, any chance of reviewing a 2009+ Toyota Mark X. Waiting for mine to ship across to WA!
300g?
@@d.erueti5156 was thinking the grx 133. 350s, premium or +G models.
I have a 420+ rwk E92 N54 335i.
They drive great but not an everyday car for someone with a size 12 shoe😂
I’m size 11 🫣🦶
@@RossReviewsau how'd you find it?
Imagine a 1M with a ZF!
Simply Tuning are fitting a ZF8 to a 1M - but it may be replica
Cheapest one on car sales is $62k. There's plenty of other euro's id pick over this for that price. Cool little pocket rocket though.
They are like 200,000 in some markets (aud))
Only 6000? 😳(Edit: oh only the 1M 😅 my bad, but yeah) I literally live in the ass of Europe, not to be too political, but literally seen quite a few of them around. But I guess it explains why lately they kinda disappeared 😅
Anyways, gr8 video man, that car sings ❤
Try get your hands on a g80 m3 x drive , proper insane driving machine
Would love to try one
Straight Sixers are the best engines
Amen
BMW Australia (Melbourne) has almost finished building a 1 of 1 2022 M135i Xdrive Competition pushing 1000hp.
1000hp from a 2.0 4pot is something I’d like to see 😮
Holy hell really!
Love it. Love everything about it. Buuuuuuuut....theyre going for around 80-100 thousand buckeroonies. Thats GTR or Porsche money.
They go for double that in places like the uk 😳 it’s a lot but a fairly rare car I guess
Such a mental little thing
Wild eh
let's appreciate how hawt those wheels look 🥵
Hot 🔥
Purposeful and focused car. It’s 6 hundredths of a second quicker than a bone stock BMW 330e.
I drove it for 30mins and it was scary to launch the owner would have gotten a far better time.. low 4 I believe
Absolutely a beautiful piece of machinery. Now lets get down to business-tell us how it feels when heel and toeing. Is there enough room in the back seat for after hours entertainment??? Choose a friend and from now on let’s always have a section that we can enjoy
Im sorry but ill always disagree. The 1M isnt worth 80k theyre asking right now. The upgrades compared to the 135i is very minimal. The M3 suspension is fairly cheap. The engine is the same. The interior in that one is the base model 1M interior. No roll cage or racing seats that came in the 1M. Might as well get a 135i and just put the widebody kit from the 1M and youre set for less than 3 times the cost of a 1M.
BMW and Audi are and always will be problematic cars.
Yeah they look great
They sound great.
But that’s it. 😊
You a Hyundai owner?
Bmw and Audi are some of the best built cars you can get. Most problems occur from spirited driving, which you don't get in a Toyota camry. Now if you can. Check a ten year old BMW compared to a 10 year old Japanese or Korean car. One is not like the other. Bmw and Audi won't even have a loose stitch in the leather.
You might wanna take another look at the manufacturer reliability rankings. You’re a few years outdated
140i is better
Naa m lite car is no match for a real M car, yeah the B58 engine in the 140i is good but the until you upgrade the suspension and add an mfactory lsd, the handling isn't anything too special
