Coming: A Turbo 1?

The BMW 135Ti (or maybe 135Tc for American buyers) will not be
your ordinary turbocharged sport compact. In fact, it will be powered
by BMW’s upcoming turbocharged six-cylinder and will produce in the
neighborhood of 330 bhp. The compact uber-BMW has been seen testing
on the Nürburgring. The decision to produce the car has not been made.
You can bet that it will be a rocket if it is produced. Now, there will
not be an M1 variant of the 1-series. The M1 was a GT sports car BMW
produced in the late Seventies and early Eighties. You can be sure,
however, that the 135Ti will either be developed by the M team, or they
may create an M variant off of the 135Ti. Either way, this should be a
sufficiently entertaining Bavarian.
