The BMW M1 is designed to run on high-octane premium gasoline, so it's important to always use fuel with an octane rating of 91 or higher.

I've heard that using regular fuel in the BMW M1 can cause engine damage and negatively impact performance. Stick with premium to ensure optimal engine performance.
