Since the beginning at the week, we’ve drooling over photos of the M4 coupe, eager for the right time to share them with you. But even though the official pictures were amazing, they can’t match up to the real thing, which is extremely rare nowadays.
If you’ve ever lusted over a E46 M3, this will probably leave you speechless. It’s everything BMW M hasn’t been for the past decade: focused design, a light chassis, efficient and cutting edge.
By switching from a V8 to a six-cylinder turbo engine, engineers have made the M4 lighter and more frugal. The E46 burned through 18 liters of fuel in the city, the E92 after it about 16 liters, but the M4 might go 20% better.
The design previewed by the concept is brutishly elegant. They’ve intentionally left a flared bezel around the headlights and taillight. So when you look at the car you instantly recognize it’s wider than the 4 Series.
