We love what BMW has done with the 1-Series so far, especially the M135i, which if you can keep away from the options lists is quite an attractive performance bargain. But that car is not available in the US, and let's face it: there's only one way to look cool and have fun at the same time, the upcoming M-tuned 2 Series.
A report from BMW Blog, who has managed to take a loot at internal production schedules, suggests the M235i will roll of the German assembly line in November 2013. The car will be powered by the same N55 BMW TwinPower Turbo 3.0-liter straight-six engine producing 320 HP. Of course, dynamics will be much enhanced over the standard 2-Series through better brakes, suspension and a host of other changes that will make the M235i incrementally better.
But the best part about this car is that it will have totally different headlights to the F20 1 Series.
