History/Overview
The BMW M4 was originally the coupe version of the M3, until last generation when BMW split the car into two different badges. That doesn't change the performance, though, as an M by any other name is still as sweet.
What's New
The M4 is all-new this year with new styling, improved performance, and an all-new interior, all on an even more capable chassis.
Available Trims
Two versions of the M4 are available, the first with 473 hp and a six-speed manual transmission, the other the 503 hp M4 Competiton that is automatic only. Both use the same 3.0L twin-turbo inline-six, with the Competition model tweaked to make those extra ponies.
