BMW Lifts the Veil off All-new 1 Series M Coupé [Video]

It's only a matter of hours before BMW drops the ball on its much anticipated 1 Series M Coupé, but for now, the Bavarian automaker has released a video showing the production version of the sports car completely undisguised for the very first time. The short story is that the 1 Series M Coupé is based off the 135i featuring a straight-six engine capable of 340-horsepower or more, a wider body, upgraded chassis and all the other usual tweaks you'd expect from a car wearing the M badge. For the full story, we'll have to wait until tomorrow.

BMW Sends Draped 1 Series M Coupe for a Photo Shoot in Paris

Welcome to another round of insignificant teaser pictures of BMW's upcoming 1 Series M Coupe. This time, the Bavarians took a pre-production version of the high-performance compact coupe over to the Arc de Triomphe, just off the Place Charles de Gaulle in Paris, for a quick photo shoot. Once again, the car was fully wrapped so nothing really new to see here. And before you ask, we don't know anything about the man or the young woman posing with the car.

BMW hasn't really given out any specific details about the car, but we do know it will be powered by a turbocharged straight six producing somewhere around 350-ponies with the Germans also hinting that it's meant to be a spiritual successor to the original E30 M3 of the late 1980s / early 1990s.

The newest member of BMW's 'M' model family is scheduled to be launched into the market sometime next year.
