Collector Car Network Media spotted something truly special during Monterey Car Week: a BMW M1 Procar, one of only 54 built for the legendary 1979-1980 one-make racing series. In this video, we take you through its history, from BMW Motorsport’s decision to create its first M car to the iconic Procar battles featuring Formula 1 stars such as Niki Lauda and Nelson Piquet. This particular example, delivered new to Porsche sales and motorsports icon Vasek Polak and never raced, is a time capsule of late-1970s engineering, and features a Giugiaro design, a spartan race car cockpit, and a 470-horsepower M88 straight-6capable of nearly 190 mph. In the race to buy this piece of automotive history, one bidder outran everyone else with a winning bid of $1.6 million.
