over Black Interior - Only 19k Miles The 2011 BMW 1M is a rare and
highly coveted performance machine, revered by enthusiasts for its
raw driving dynamics, limited production numbers, and unmistakable
presence. Built during a single model year, only 6,339 units were
produced globally, making it one of BMW?s most exclusive M models.
Of those, a mere 983 were allocated to the North American market.
This particular example is even more special, being one of just 222
finished in Black Sapphire Metallicmaking it the rarest color
option offered.This 1M has had just two owners since new, with the
current owner having taken stewardship in 2015. Over the past
decade, it has been meticulously cared for and sparingly driven,
with only 19,000 miles on the odometer. Its low mileage and
well-documented ownership history make it a prime collector?s
piece, while also offering a thrilling and engaging driving
experience for those who value analog performance in a digital
age.At the heart of the 1M lies a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged
inline-six engine, delivering robust power and torque across the
rev range. This particular car benefits from a Dinan Stage 2 tune,
which further enhances throttle response, boost levels, and overall
engine outputwhile maintaining BMW?s renowned reliability and
smooth power delivery. The result is an even more potent version of
an already formidable sports coupe.Adding to its performance
credentials is an Akrapovic exhaust system, known for its
lightweight titanium construction and aggressive sound profile. The
upgraded exhaust not only reduces weight but also elevates the
car?s auditory presence, giving it a distinctive growl under
acceleration. For purists, the original factory exhaust is included
with the sale, ensuring the car can be returned to stock if
desired.Transmission duties are handled exclusively by a 6-speed
manual gearbox, staying true to the M division?s commitment to
driver engagement. The manual transmission, combined with a compact
wheelbase and rear-wheel drive layout, makes the 1M a joy to drive
on twisty backroads or track days alike. Its chassis balance,
limited-slip differential, and sharp steering create a connected,
old-school driving feel rarely found in modern performance
cars.Inside, the car features a black interior that complements the
rare Black Sapphire exterior. The cabin blends sport-focused design
with premium materials, showcasing classic BMW M styling cues
throughout. As a whole, this 2011 BMW 1M represents the pinnacle of
modern analog drivingrare, powerful, and beautifully preserved,
with tasteful upgrades that enhance performance while respecting
its original character. Please call if interested or e-mail with
