A substantial upgrade for the BMW 1M Coupe is now available at G-Power central. There's an increase in power, there's a suspension tweak and there's some eye candy.
The main point here is that now a 1M Coupe is more powerful than it's bigger brother – the M3. That's 435 horsepower and 590 Newton meters of torque (15 hp and 195 Nm more than the M3). That immediately takes us to the question of speed. The G-Power 1M eats up 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds. The top speed has been upped to 300 km/

The BMW itslef on the other hand may have more to offer. If we are talking a
