I am driving the car tomorrow... when asking what can I expect from the Coupe from the compact I am told that the Coupe has a more rigid structure that helps with the agility and balance. Aluminium features in the external components of the Coupe in areas like the suspension, He also mentioned that the Coupe is not projected at families and is more of the dynamic sporty projection of the 1er family Due to some tweaking of the chassis and suspension.

He also mentioned the rear axle is positioned differently in the Coupe which maintains 50/50 weight distribution and offers an exciting premonition of the further "performance plans" of the Coupe . This is when BMW board members drove the car and they all agreed in chorus - M Power variant needed...
