Rare 1981 BMW M1 Is Officially Up For Auction

In a thrilling turn of events for automotive enthusiasts, RM Sotheby’s announced one of the 339 iconic 1981 BMW M1 supercars is officially hitting the auction block. This rare gem, with its unmistakable wedge-shaped design and motorsport pedigree, is poised to capture the hearts of collectors worldwide.

The BMW M1 holds a special place in automotive lore. Born from the collaboration between BMW and Lamborghini, it was initially intended for racing in the Group 4 category. However, due to changes in regulations, only a limited number of road-going versions were produced. The result? A masterpiece that seamlessly blends performance and aesthetics.

For collectors, this auction presents a tantalizing opportunity. Should they acquire this piece of automotive history and preserve it as a museum-worthy artifact? Or should they unleash its power on the open road, savoring every rev of that high-strung engine?

As the gavel falls, one lucky bidder will secure their place in the annals of automotive passion. The 1981 BMW M1—a legend reborn—is available for bid now via RM Sotheby’s official website.
