The Famous BMW E82 1M Coupe – An Overview
The BMW E82 1M Coupe is a classic compact sports coupe that was produced from 2011 to 2012. It belongs to the first generation of the BMW 1 Series and marks an important point in the company's history. Designed by Anders Warming, the 1M Coupe combines performance, handling, and a distinctive design. Powered by a 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder engine with a Twin-Scroll turbocharger, the BMW E82 1M Coupe delivers an impressive 340 horsepower and 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of torque. The vehicle reaches 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 4.9 seconds, making it a serious sports car. With rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual transmission, the driving experience remains authentically sporty. Officially developed by BMW M GmbH, the car was a direct competitor to the Audi RS3 and the Mercedes-Benz CLA 45 AMG.
Modified Miniature: Unique Details and Features
The scale model shown in 1/18 scale is a replica of the BMW E82 1M Coupe and was manufactured by GT Spirit. It is a highly modified version that does not represent the originally produced product by GT Spirit. This model is made of Resin material, known for its detail and durability. The striking red rims and details give the model a special touch. The applied decals of brands like Alpina, Brembo, Eibach, and Falken contribute to the authenticity and appeal of the model. The noticeable red accents on the mirror caps and front spoiler complete the overall look. It is clear that this is a lovingly designed and personalized miniature owned by Modelly member "Bmw-M-Fan."
Technical Data and Production of the Original
The BMW E82 1M Coupe is based on the 1 Series E82 Coupe, which itself evolved from the E8X platform. Responsible for the development and design was Albert Biermann, the former head of development at BMW M GmbH. The 1M Coupe differs from its predecessor, the BMW 3 Series Compact, by being based on a shorter wheelbase and especially tuned for sportiness. Not only does the performance impress; the design with its wide track, muscular fenders, and aerodynamic bumpers clearly demonstrates the sporty DNA of this model. The interior features sports seats, high-quality materials, and the typical M steering wheel. The combination of performance and design made the 1M Coupe a coveted collector's piece.
Collector's Perspective and Visual Highlights
A highlight for collectors is the perfect craftsmanship of this 1/18 scale model. Especially the faithfully replicated red rims and the true-to-original white paint with red accents catch the eye. The model builders from GT Spirit have placed great value on reproducing small details, highly appreciated in the world of miniature models. The realistic representation of the front view with the distinctive headlights and the typical BMW kidney grille contributes to the authentic depiction. The "MUJ 8450" license plate adds another individual touch. This miniature is a must-have for any collector and enthusiast of BMW models, especially due to the exclusive modification that makes it a unique piece.
