Our 2011 BMW 1M is a perfect example of what a modern driver’s car is all about. This low-mileage example is finished in a beautiful ‘Black Sapphire Metallic’ paint which perfectly compliments the car’s aggressive design. Its interior features black leather and Alcantara with ‘Valencia Orange’ contrasting stitching throughout the cabin.
With only 222 Black Sapphire Metallic examples of the 1M delivered to North America (983 in total), this is a very rare model that has already become a highly sought-after investment among enthusiasts.
Exterior
The BMW 1M is quite imposing with a wide stance, accentuated by four bulging fender flares that practically hug its wheels and tires. It shares many components with the BMW M3 including its brakes, a limited-slip differential, aluminum dampers, and rear subframe and suspension components all while offering a distinctive driving experience.
This vehicle is finished in a rare Black Sapphire Metallic paint, 1 of only 3 available colours, and remains the rarest of the three at only 23% of North American production (44% are Valencia Orange and 33% are Alpine White).
Interior
The interior is virtually flawless with little-to-no wear and tear to be found anywhere. Extensive Valencia Orange stitching contrasts a black leather and Alcantara cabin beautifully.

This BMW 1M is loaded with many standard and optional features including:
- 6-speed manual transmission

Engine & Performance
The BMW 1M is powered by a phenomenal twin-turbocharged 3.0L 6-cylinder engine producing 335 HP and 332 lb·ft of torque. The engine offers very limited turbo lag and immediate torque delivery.
Driving the car is a truly visceral experience. Its 6-speed manual transmission is smooth and quick; if you’ve driven a modern manual M car before, you already know what to expect. Put simply – it’s an absolute blast to drive. Super-quick and precise steering, surprising power delivery and a wonderful exhaust note make it an addictive ‘go-kart like’ experience.
History & Condition
The vehicle was originally delivered to its first owner on October 7th 2013 in Ontario, Canada. As a result, this vehicle has been in use for 2 fewer years than most other 1Ms that were delivered in 2011.
Impeccable CarFax report – no accidents.
Body & Paint
The car has all original paint and very little wear throughout the body.
Only a handful of small rock chips anywhere else on the car.
