BMW fans are well aware of the BMW M1 Procar<\/a>, the racing version of the M1 supercar that raced in its own single-car racing series in the 1980s. It was an awesome looking race car and one that was driven by some of the world\u2019s greatest drivers at the time, including Hans-Joachim Stuck, Niki Lauda, and Nelson Piquet. No Procars ever made it to the road but there was one man who wished they had and decided to take matters into his own hands. Peter Gartemann, president and owner of the BMW dealer AHG, decided to have a few M1s made to look like the Procar and one of them is headed to the RM Sotheby\u2019s<\/a><\/em> auction in Miami.<\/p>\n

These BMW M1 Procar lookalikes for the road were called M1 AHG Studies and they had both visual and mechanical modifications. On the outside, the BMW M1 AHG Studie looks like a Procar, with the wider fenders, body kit, and rear wing. It even wears the same BBS wheels and Procar racing livery. So it legitimately looks like a Procar for the road, which is pretty cool.<\/p>\n
