Professional Reviews

• “The 1 M's super-quick steering (2.2 turns lock-to-lock), combined with a short wheelbase, makes it feel like a go-kart, despite its upright, relatively tall seating position.” — Car and Driver
• “The M's interior betrays its high-end aspirations, however. The quality of the materials and the fit and finish are fine, but there's a distinct whiff of economy sedan inside the this coupe.” — Car and Driver
• “The car's light weight and retuned suspension gave the car a distinct sense of agility and a stable attitude in hard cornering, while large cross-drilled disc brakes at all four corners provided abundant stopping power.” — Edmunds.com
• “Through slow, low-rpm corner exits, the 1 M feels positively brutish as its 3.0-liter comes on boost and flings you out of the corner quicker than the Cayman R's 3.4-liter flat-6 or the Evora's even larger 3.5-liter supercharged V-6.” — Road & Track
• “After a few tough corners, you're pretty sure the 1M could tuck, roll, somersault, and land on its rubber without a scratch. It's that tight.” — Automobile
