Oh boy, I’m currently actually struggling to contain my enthusiasm for this new bit of news that has our favorite company at the core.

More and more reports are trickling in about how the Bavarians are actually going to make a followup version of the infamous 1 Series M Coupe.

The M Performance spec M235i is coming and it will be available in 2014 in the US but it seems that a higher up model is also in question.

Obviously, we’re talking about a spiritual successor to the 1 Series M Coupe. Let’s not forget that the E89 coupe had a 135i model before the actual cake came along.

The successor isn’t yet stuck with an announced release date. Frankly we don’t care. We also don’t care about the fact that it will very likely be called the 2 Series M coupe.

We don’t care because as the current version of the BMW 1 Series M Coupe keeps racking up impressive reviews and making appearances in our dreams, the next one just keeps on giving us hope.

Hopefully, the 3.0 liter straight six cylinder turbocharged engine will get even smoother and even more powerful.

We don’t ask for much but could the economy be better? Frankly we’re just nitpicking right now as it will likely develop some 350 horsepower or more which is light speed potential.

You can’t be the least bit serious about your driving and say that this BMW 1 Series M Coupe isn’t something your interested.

Which makes the follow-up model that much more interesting.

Good news for the United States. There’s plenty of added interest in the boosting the luxury market and as competition heats up more and more interesting cars will be headed for them.

Though all the Germans are going to hit their market with a vengeance, the Bavarians are the ones we’re interested in and we reckon they’re going to offer the most exciting stuff.

Dear Americans, the entire BMW M Performance lineup is on its way to your market with the first model to be there being a new one.

Well, more or less, since the 2 Series is actually going to be a coupe version of the already familiar BMW 1 series.

In order to make the deal sweeter for the Americans, the big engined version is going to helm the new attack. The M235i is powered by a turbocharged 3.0 liter six cylinder.

With the European version of that engine produces 320 horsepower and is capable of a maximum torque figure of 332 lb-ft.

Typical BMW smoothness is still there and the performance is just sublime when teamed to such a light and chuckable car.

Naturally, all the hardcore enthusiasts are looking forward to BMW once again going one up on their cars and creating a 2 Series M Coupe in the near future.

Frankly, that’s just an unsubstantiated rumor and great though it may sound it’s not very likely right now. If the M235i is scheduled for 2014, that follow-up 2 Series M Coupe wouldn’t turn up for another two-three years.
