Sportauto BMW 1M Coupe Nurburgring Time – 8:15

Sportauto has announced their Supertest of the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. The lap time of the 1M at the Nürburgring was 8 minutes 15 seconds — well ahead of the Porsche Cayman S by 2 seconds and the Audi RS 3 by 5 seconds. The vehicle got a total score of 58 points (out of 70). Same as the score that the E92 M3 got in 2007. Here is an excerpt of their verdict:

The 1-series M Coupé fits perfectly in this day and age and makes for a great daily driver. It’s the smallest M ever and its amazing 3-liter biturbo engine pulls strongly. This inline-6 reflects all you’ve ever expected from a company called Bavarian Motor Works. The car fits well into the iconic lineup of former M cars which have built BMW M’s strong image.

A design this bold might not be for everyone, yet it should work well for the 1M’s target group. The suspension has its downsides: A bit too stiff for day-to-day use, and not as good as it could be for the Ring. Still, this is a car you’d want to have.
