The BMW 1M is one of the rarest cars to come out of BMW's M division. With a short wheelbase, highly responsive steering, glorious engine note, and aggressive styling it has aged extremely well and has a solid grasp on the hearts of automotive enthusiasts.

Sam and her Dad purchased the car when she was 16 so she could not only have a safe car for the commute to school but also be capable for track days. In her teens, Sam got bitten by the racing bug after a ride-a-long in a Ferrari Challenge car and set her eyes on achieving the goal of being a racing driver. Today, she achieved that goal and even owns her own race team as a joint partnership with her Dad racing in the Pirelli GT America Championship piloting a BMW M4 GT4. The team finished at the top of the podium in the 2019 Championship with Sam achieving a 3rd place finish at the final stop in Las Vegas Motor-Speedway.
