Still a great sports sedan, but it could use more detail development.
The transmission's job is made easier by being coupled with BMW's superb B58 turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six. Despite the new hybrid components, peak power and torque—382 horsepower at 5800 to 6500 rpm and 369 pound-feet of torque between 1800 and 5000 revs—are unchanged from earlier nonhybrid iterations. That thrust is delivered very smoothly and without a discordant note.
The performance of our all-wheel-drive test car is similar to that of the earlier rear-drive cars we've tested. With additional traction, the xDrive model launches harder and hits 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, a tenth quicker thanAnd it covers the quarter-mile in 12.2 seconds at 112 mph, a tenth quicker but 3 mph slower than before. As speeds increase, this M340i's acceleration deficit increases thanks to the extra 160 pounds imposed by the all-wheel drive and hybrid-system hardware.

Used BMW M1 Factory test car Only 22087 km, Stunning condition throughout! Inka orange color scheme for saleIt is in the late 1970s when BMW starts a collaboration with Lamborghini to produce a homologation model so that it can race in the Group 5 class and compete against rivals such as Porsche. At that time, however, it was not feasible for BMW to build four hundred cars, so contact was made with the Italian sports car manufacturer. Even before the project properly starts, Lamborghini is in financial trouble and it seems that the sports car designed by Giorgietto Giugiaro will not materialize. A handful of ex-employees of ‘the brand with the bull’ started the company ItalEngineering, mainly as a mediator so that the cooperation between BMW, ItalDesign and Baur in Stuttgart runs smoothly. Baur is the party that takes care of a large part of the production. Baur receives the partly already built M1 from Italy to partly dismantle it and completely finish it. Under the tailgate a 3,453 cc measuring DOHC straight-six engine with Bosch Kugelfischer mechanical fuel injection. 277 hp strong and coupled to a five-speed manual ZF gearbox. After the men in Stuttgart have finished, the cars move once more to BMW in Munich to be handed over to the first owners in a specially equipped room. 399 road-going M1s will be built. The M1 you see here is the third example built according to factory production data and the first production car to be delivered to a dealer in Germany. Initially this Inka Orange is used as a training car at BMW service centres and then it is sold to BMW adept and racing driver Alf Gebhardt. Gebhardt had been successfully driving a CSL and M1 Procar since 1978 and had close ties to BMW, which led him to acquire this street version of the M1. Gebhardt owned the car for about 6 years, driving about 1,000 kilometres a year. The second owner was at least as much of a lover of special BMWs as Gebhardt, because this man owned the M1 for thirty years! After thirty years, so quite recently, the owner gave up and the car was completely checked and tested. Since the car ha
