Eleven minutes of chopped together B-roll? What gives? It's the roughly three minutes of track footage that make this worth your Tuesday time, showing the 2011 1-Series M Coupe on its own and alongside an E30 M3, its ostensible spiritual predecessor.

While there's less tire-sqealing and exhaust-bellowing action than we'd like, there's enough there to sink your virtual meathooks into if you're interested in seeing the car in action before plunking down your order.
