Stuffing A BMW M5 V10 Into A 1-Series Hatch Is The Right Kind Of Crazy
This V10-powered 1-series was filmed at the Deutsche Meisterschaft Rolling50 rolling drag race event, and we think it's brilliant
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this V10 monster, with the video below appearing on CT a few weeks ago. It’s also not the only S85-powered 1-series we’ve seen: you might recall a 1M replica with an E60 M5 heart we featured a couple years back.

Ahem…
Mmmm… Techno Violet Metallic…
Best colour they did.
e36 touring in techno violet with the V10 in it, porn. 3 piece throwing stars so they can be made nice and wide too
He pribably wanted the power of a Turbo S50B32 but he did the right thing and kept it N/A.
True BMW guy.
I always believed this little 1er packed a lot of potential in it :D
“What would your ultimate BMW-to-BMW engine swap look like?”
That’s a hard one.
S14 2002 - N20 E30 - S38 E28
I simply can’t pick one over the others.
A really hard one. I chose the 2002
BMW already did the last one themselves, so I’d probably go with the E30
Yeah, but those are expensive, I’d rather swap the S38B38 in there and have 90hp more
M12/13 I8.
Idk how I’d get the 1500hp F1 engine or an I8 but you said ultimate soo.
The V-10 from the video in an i8, tune it and then destroy some people on the strip!
The 1 series hatch is amazing on its own. S85 swapped, its freaking mental
A little pee came out
Ultimate bmw to bmw swap must be M1 (not 1M) with this E60 M5 V10
With the going rate of an M1 between $450,000 - $700,000 I’d say no.
That BMW is from the city I live in! Shame I haven’t ever seen it around though :/ (it’s only a small city)
Straubing isn’t it? ;)
Laughed with the 150i name
How much more awesome?
