BMW M4 GTS Shines Bright in First Videos, Tearing Rubber on the Anglesey Circuit

We know that you’re interested in everything related to the M4 GTS and we’re here to quench that thirst. After telling you all about the technical details and looking at photos of the hardcore machine, it’s time to watch it in motion. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words and a video is worth probably a thousand times over that.

The guys from BMW UK took the car out to the Anglesey Circuit and shot a film already, showcasing the M4 GTS’ rubber burning abilities. We know exactly how mad this thing can get.

After our bout with it we noticed that this is one of the most fun to drive and driftable cars the M division put out in its last few years. The standard 431 HP and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque will make the rear axle slide in no time and that’s no joke.

Now imagine what will happen with 500 HP and 600 Nm (433 lb-ft) of torque. Can you? You don’t have to if you’re drawing a blank, as the videos below will come in handy.

One of them is the presentation of the car for the UK market, and it tells us that only 30 units with a right-hand drive layout will be made, each of them starting at £121,770 ($186,400 or €165,137 at the current exchange rates) at the very least. That’s double what the standard model costs.

In return, you do get a car that accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.8 seconds and comes with the title of the fastest BMW ever made. It’s also one of the fastest 30 cars in the world around the Nurburgring with a claimed lap time of 7 minutes 28 seconds which is an incredible achievement, on par with cars like the Ferrari 458 Italia.

The one question that still lingers in our mind is: will it be usable on a daily basis? We’ll have to wait and see.
