	BMW M1 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The BMW M1 is a supercar automobile, and was the first and only mid-engined BMW.
		The M1 coupe was hand-built between 1978 and 1981 under the Motorsport division of BMW as a homologation special for sports car racing.
		Originally, BMW commissioned Lamborghini to work out the details of the car's chassis, assemble prototypes and manufacture the vehicles, but Lamborghini's financial position meant that BMW reassumed control over the project in April 1978, after seven prototypes were built.

		BMW M1 - what inspired it was apparent from the cool, unpretentious type name.
		The BMW M1 had all around double wishbones for the wheel suspensions, stabilizers and gas pressure shock absorber of Bilstein, adjustable wheel controls together with variable suspension.
		The M1 cut the wind with a CW value of only 0.384, and its 460 mm low centre of gravity contributed to the fact that the vehicle stuck with transverse acceleration up to a " G " practically to the road, before the tail moved energetically toward the exterior of the curve.

	BMW M1
		BMW M1 1 holds many firsts in the history of BMW.
		M1 was therefore the father of all M-cars.
		Unfortunately, when the M1 finally launched in 1979, FIA had already revised the rules for Group 5: instead of requiring to complete 400 road cars in 24 months, now it required all these cars must be built before obtaining homologation.

	BMW E26 M1
		His plan was for the M1 to debut in March 1978 at the Geneva Salon and go onto race at Le Mans that June.
		BMW then began a most complicated assembly procedure with M1's being worked on in various stages at Marchesi in Modena, Ital Design in Turin and Baur in Stuttgart.
		Although retaining some traditional BMW styling cues, the E26 was a complete departure from any of the marque’s previous road cars, prominent features at the front seeing large retractable headlights (used for the first time on a BMW) integrated with trademark kidney grilles.

	Other BMW Cars & Bikes
		The M1 was the first and yet the only mid-engined model coming out from BMW, although the company once claimed the Z1 to be "front mid-engined".
		The assembly of early M1 was carried out by Lamborghini since BMW had no craftsmen and tools to build such a low volume car economically.
		BMW still maintains that normally aspirated is the way for its future.

	BMW E26 M1 information, specifications, history, and images.
		The M1 was a radical departure from the front-engined, rear-wheel drive configuration of its prior vehicles.
		The M1, also known as the 'Mid-Engined BMW M1 Project E26, was started in 1976 and completed four years later.
		When BMW had sold enough cars to comply with Group 5 homologation requirements, the vehicle was no longer competitive for that group.

	Bmw M1 - Ultimatecarpage.com forums
		The rarest of modern BMWs was manufactured from 1979 to 1980 by Baur using an Italian made space frame chassis based on the 1972 Turbo concept car.
		The Giugiaro-designed M1 was to be assembled by Lamborghini, but Lamborghini's poor financial situation and assembly delays caused BMW to move assembly to Baur, the German convertible builders.
		The M1 was all Italian in look and feel, but had a big BMW engine wailing from the back.

		Two BMW stickers (and maybe a license plate, too) would be a nice addition though.
		Especially the good old 45° slope brick proved to be quite useful as it fitted perfectly for the air inlets at the rear side of the car and in the front hood.

	BMW M1 - Motorbase
		Launched in 1979 the M1 was unlike anything that BMW had built before (or since) and was developed from an original race-car design.
		The M1 had a very Italian feel to it (the body was designed by Giugiaro and the chassis was built for BMW by Lamborghini) with its mid-engined layout and low-slung appearance.
		The M1 used a GRP body and the whole car was assembled by Baur, who BMW had already used before for other projects.

	THE BMW M1
		The M1 (which stands for mid-engine car, first type) originated in 1975 as BMW's counterattack against the Porsche 911s then cleaning up in various sports-racing series.
		Ital was told to retain some "BMW identity," which explains the use of the familiar "twin-kidney" grille motif.
		But by then it was 1979 (the M1 debuted at the Paris Salon in October '78) and BMW was weary of.a project that wasn't likely to generate the publicity (or victories) expected of it.

	Sports Car Market > Profiles and Price Guide > 1981 BMW M1
		BMW proposed to build a flagship car which would compete in this series and join the ranks of the World's "supercars." The M1 was the result.
		Four hundred cars needed to be produced to qualify the M1 for the Group 5 series and 456 were actually built, the majority in Germany.
		Remember, BMW was specializing in building slab-sided, four-wheeled boxes at the same time that they produced the M1.

	BMW M1 Procar
		In the event of BMW's M1 being refused homologation, Jochen Neerspach managed to pull off something of a coup by getting Formula One Constructors Association boss, Max Moseley, to agree to an F1 support series known as the Procar Championship.
		These five would use works BMW Motorsport cars and whatever their practice times, start from the front of the grid.
		Thereafter, BMW's F1 programme stepped up a gear and Procar was no more - yet it remains the single greatest one make championship ever to have existed.

		I believe ESCI made various versions of M1 car ranging from stock M1 to Marlboro sponsored Procar, and this one is Jagermeister version with a clear body shell.
		For simplicity, I won't go into the detail of the history of BMW M1 (a long history book won't be still enough), I rather focus on the kit evaluation.
		This is the typical method of assembling an engine, where the cylinder block is already mounted on with the tranny.

		BMW produced just 455 total M1s between 1979-81 (399 road and 56 race).
		Originally conceived as a Porsche 911-killer, the M1 was delayed and by the time it was introduced it was uncompetitive in international racing.
		The M1 was also used in its own spec series supporting F1 races in 1980-81.

		The M1 truly is one of the most usable and exploitable supercars ever built.
		There was a BEAUTIFUL one that came in for valve adjustment and service, it was white with the M stripes and the interior was the same scheme, mostly fl, but the seats and door cards were white with the M stripes in them.
		The M1 is just so much more rare with an amazing race pedigree and it's such a unique car to be German, well it almost went to Lambo first.
