It was just a matter of time till a BMW 1M owner will take the “baby-M” to the next level. EmmDrei, a member of 1Addicts, took recently delivery of a Black Sapphire 1M and wasted no time.
After nicknaming the car “Black Bulldog”, the proud BMW fan adventured in the BMW Performance Parts world. The 1M went through a few cosmetic changes both inside and outside the car by receiving performance blacked out kidneys, a new spoiler and steering wheel, and a new set of sporty seats with the street legal Schroth 4-point harnesses.
After the usual break in period, the owner plans to rebuild the shifter, replace the brakes and add a new set of Pirelli P Zero tires.
If you had any doubts before that the 1M in black is not a stunner, have a look again and you might change your mind.
Stay tuned for more BMW 1M next week when BMWBLOG goes to Monticello to drive the car, followed a month later by our European Delivery and a visit at the Nurburgring race track.
