M4 has the CFRP trunk. The M3 does not.
The M3 is materially "taller" than the M4 while being a horse hair width wider. Not sure why breaking the 12 sec 1/4 mile is of any significance as if it's breaking the speed of sound with a sonic boom? Simply put, it's the fastest M3(4) by some margin at time of release which is in and of itself not exactly a shocker since every gen M was faster than the previous gen. The better comparison than to some vintage E30 chassis is the fact that a pedestrian F80/2 is only 15% less stiffer than the American LeMans winning, fully caged out E46 M3 GTR. M3/4 CS and GTS have a .5 qt larger oil capacity and an additional oil pump to handle the added grip or Gs on track. They also both feature the lighter weight magnesium oil pan. Not all F8X M3/4s come with a CF driveshaft. 2018+ ICON lights cannot be programmed to EURO/ROW spec adaptive lights like the pre-LCI units because they lack the actual hardware to pull it off. Thanks for sharing? |

Why the thanks for playing? BTW: I know the E46 M3 GTR is 46,000 you are probably referencing the same site -> http://youwheel.com/home/2016/06/20/...ehensive-list/ |

He didn't ask you to subscribe. He was just trying to share 5 interesting facts he may not have know prior to owning the car and wanted to share that with others/community/youtube viewers.
You don't have to be such an a*****e to him about it. |

The part about Torsional Rigidity is interesting. What the hell does a Genesis G90 feel like?!
It's not something I've thought about much before this but admittedly I've definitely noticed it… while the steering feel for the F8X is limited, I have found that the chassis lets me know exactly what's happening on the road. On the other hand I recall driving a Z3 and thinking it was the softest car I've ever driven lol (40,000 vs 5,600). I do wonder though - is part of the issue with the early F80s putting down power on uneven surfaces partially due to it being so rigid?

I don't recall any mention of an additional oil pump though.

I just watched the video. If you want publish “facts” about the F8X, at least get them straight. The M3 is not "more aerodynamic" (whatever that means) than the M4. It's actually the other way around. Both have the same Cd, but because the M4 has a lower frontal area, it has less drag. Further, since the base 4-series overall shape was prone to more rear end lift than the base 3-series, BMW ///M decided to redesign the rear deck lid on the M4 to reduce lift and took the opportunity to make it lighter in the process. The M4 rear deck lid is actually a more aerodynamically efficient design than the M3's because the "spoiler" is integrated. So "in fact", the M4 is more aerodynamically efficient than the M3 (albeit by a small margin).

To further explain, a common misconception is that CD is a stand alone measurement of drag, ie a lower CD means the car has less overall drag than another car with a higher CD. It's not. It's a coefficient based upon the fluid which the object is passing through and relevant area. A car with a low CD basically means that it has aerodynamic properties that reduce it's drag compared to it's frontal surface area. So the M3 and M4 can have the same CD, but the M4 can actually experience less drag because it has less frontal area.

And if you’d actually read through it, you’ll see I said the exact same thing back then then I am saying now…
