The BMW M1 was the first and only mid-engine design produced by BMW, making it unique and highly desirable among collectors. It was also the first car to be designed by the BMW Motorsport division and its V-shaped spoiler and integrated rear wings helped improve aerodynamics.

The M1 was fitted with a 3.5 liter inline-six engine producing 277 horsepower, allowing it to go from 0-60 in just 5.1 seconds. It also had advanced fuel injection and a 5-speed manual transmission, giving it exceptional performance for its time.

One of the most notable features of the M1 is its hand-built construction, with each car taking over three weeks to build. This level of attention to detail and quality control is what truly sets it apart from other sports cars of its era.
