2011 BMW 1-Series Powertrain: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2012 | 2dr Coupe 230-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
The inline 6 is a great engine. This is one of the last models to have a naturally aspirated version. It is smooth with good power, and I loved the sound. see full BMW 1-Series review |
2011 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 300hp 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
Getting the same 3.0 liter turbo as the 335i but in a smaller package. see full BMW 1-Series review |

2012 | 2dr Coupe 230-horsepower 3.0L I6 6-speed manual RWD |
The run flat tires make the ride rougher than it needs to be. Others replaced them with non run flats and say the ride was improved. see full BMW 1-Series review |
