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.

Actually saw this car this year at a Nurburgring drift event, it is pretty incredible. Truth is, it is not a 1M base but a 135i converted into 1M. And the v10 fits perfectly in that car 😀
