What's in the issue

M. The most powerful letter in the world. Here, in this special collector’s-edition magazine, we celebrate 50 years of BMW M and everything it stands for.

We begin with a journey through five decades of BMW M history, from the company’s motorsport beginnings through to the latest high-performance machinery. Then we get behind the wheel of some of BMW M’s greatest hits, from classic icons like the E34 M5 and the legendary M1 to modern offerings like the thrilling M2 and the incredible F90 M5 CS.

Awesome modified builds showcase just what’s possible when you take some of BMW’s most epic M machines to the next level, while in-depth buying guides to cars like the iconic 1M and five generations of the M3 will help you to choose and buy your perfect M partner.

There are few cars as iconic as those deemed worthy of wearing an M badge and few car enthusiasts as passionate as those for whom that M badge means everything. If you count yourself among those, 50 Years of BMW M has got everything you could possibly want and so much more.
