Here's A V10-Engined BMW 1M Shredding Some Serious Rubber On Track

Take the 5.0-litre V10 from an E60 M5, stuff it into a stripped-out 1M coupe, and the results are predictably dramatic...

We’ve said before that the E60 M5’s legendary V10 in a diminutive 1M coupe chassis represents the ultimate BMW engine and car combination. Thankfully, there are a brave few around the world who’ve made this BMW M Division dream a reality.

Once such V10-engined 1M can be seen above, throwing some seriously smoky shapes on track. We don’t know much about this particular example, but even if the 5.0-litre has been left largely alone, it’ll be producing at least 500bhp. In a stripped out 1M, that’s one hell of an output.

This is what i dont get, why take the V10 engine out of the E60 M5. There arent many of those cars so youve gotta save them.

But now whoever owns this most likely has the only V10 swapped M1 ever.

Might have, or at least hopefully has, found a broken e60 with an undamaged engine

Hopefully its a broken M5 but im seeing too many of these vidoes where there the V10 engine in (eg) E36 328i. There cant be that many broken M6’s and M5s to go around. Theres so many V10 engine swaps its ridiculous.

At first i though that the flashing headlight was the turn signal .

I almost had a heart attack.

I don’t get this. Is it just designed to destroy tyres? So is it designed to be a drift car? Or is it a top titty grip driving track car that rips up straights, just being driven like nuts here? Or, is it too powerful to be any use?
Basically, my Q is…why build this car? Just because??
