Overview

This 2011 BMW 1M Dinan S3 is a true hidden gem complete with twin-turbocharged inline-six power and extensive upgrades from legendary BMW tuner, Dinan. Only 740 of the 6,309 1Ms produced were brought to the United States—even fewer received Dinan’s formidable S3 Package modifications. Dinan enhancements took square aim at increased performance by upgrading the turbochargers, intercooler, oil cooler, axle back exhaust, and intake box. Dinan-exclusive Forgeline GA1R wheels and a Brembo brake kit brought visual exclusivity with motorsport prowess. Further, this car’s factory Convenience Package adds keyless entry and parking assist, while Premium Package 2 extras include power front seats, Bluetooth, and auto-dimming mirrors. Finished in Black Sapphire Metallic with a Black Boston Leather interior, this example benefits from collector ownership and clean documentation. This BMW’s title is in transit, and will arrive approximately 3-4 weeks following the sale. 
.
Solely produced for the 2011 model year, BMW’s 1M defined the mountaintop of M-performance. The ultra-rare high-performance version of the manufacturer’s featherweight 1-Series combined the best hardware on offer from BMW at the time and was only offered with a six-speed manual transmission. Thanks to super-quick steering and a remarkably short wheelbase, the car was praised as a nimble and uncompromising alternative to its larger, more expensive M3 sibling.
.
Made by BMW. Unleashed by Dinan. This 2011 BMW 1M promises future classic provenance, still wildly fun to drive today.
