Watch the Sheer Speed of Sportec's BMW 1 M Coupe

Swiss tuner Sportech is not as widely known as AC Schnitzer or Hamann, but they do make a mean 1M Coupe. The guys from Motorvizion took it for a spin and put together a clip that showcases the sheer speed of the little monster.

According to the numbers posted in the video, this hardcore Bimmer has even more power than the Baby M, reaching 375 HP and 582 Nm (429 lb-ft) of torque from the same N54 6-cylinder 3-liter engine.

With these new numbers, the benchmark speeds are achieved even quicker. The Sportech Coupe does 100km/h (62 mph) in 4.7 seconds (0.2 seconds faster) and has a top speed of 285 km/h (178 mph) which is really is easy to achieve.

Other improvements include a set of add-on aerodynamic parts, some new seats and other, mostly cosmetic, features. The clip though, is really impressive, and we especially like the helmet cam that really makes you feel like you're inside the car.
