The M badge has always signified true performance design. For 2011, BMW finally sees fit to apply the M badge to a 1-Series model. It features an even more powerful version of the 135's 3.0L engine where it makes 335 horsepower and 332 lb-feet of torque. There's only one transmission available, a 6-speed manual. The drivetrain gets an M-exclusive variable differential lock, and there's lots more performance technology exclusive to the M. It gets its own high-performance suspension, 19-inch wheels and special computerized performance throttle mapping. The rear of the M shows off quad polished exhaust and a rear apron. Xenon headlights are standard, as are rain-sensing wipers, a 3-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel and automatic climate control.
