Is it normal for the BMW M1 engine to make a rattling noise at high speeds?

I recently purchased a BMW M1 and have noticed that the engine makes a loud rattling noise when I'm driving at high speeds. Should I be worried about this or is it a normal occurrence for this model?

Yes, it is normal for the BMW M1 engine to make a rattling noise at high speeds. This is typically due to the design of the engine and the exhaust system. However, if the noise becomes unusually loud or consistent, it is recommended to have it checked by a professional mechanic.
