And that's great but my E9x M3 with DCT does the same thing. It was never advertised as a feature since, when you think about it, it doesn't really make sense for it to operate any other way. Even traditional automatic transmissions behave in a similar manner.
So no doubt there's the ability to floor the gas pedal and launch it higher in the rev band and lay a patch, but so can any other suitably powerful car on the planet. I don't think BMW will ever call this out as a feature, much less as something by the name "smokey burnout". In contrast, the 2015 Mustang actually does have a genuine burnout feature. It is essentially a line-lock that let's you spin the wheels while the front brake is held. |

Noticed the same thing. The app wouldn't take my vin until a few days after completing production. There are plenty of workable vins online, the content doesn't appear to change with the vin. ie the manual is not specific to your build/vin (which would have been pretty cool)

I had an m3 DCT version. I'm getting a m4 manual so I was unsure if there was a difference. Plus I see the manual as being a little closer to getting my car.

Right, as per the original post, it should only be available in US and Germany. I am in US but it does NOT work for me. Maybe it was recently removed for whatever reason?

The BMW Driver's Guide is available for Android users in the Google Play store and was just updated 2 days ago (11/12/14). It includes the current model M3 and M4. However, to use the app you need the last 7 digits of a valid VIN.
I don't (yet) have an M4 but would like to access the owner's manual. Can anyone with an M4 please PM me the last 7 digits of your M4's VIN? Thanks! (Disclaimer: I only want to be able to use this app. I won't use the VIN for anything else.)

So by my account, over 2,000 people have looked at my last post in the thread over the last few days and no one is willing to share the last 7 digits of their VIN so that I can use the app? What do you possibly think would be the downfall of doing this for you?
I'm not asking you to post it in this thread, I asked someone to please PM me with this info. Is this really asking too much? Can someone explain why they're not willing to do this? Bottom line, I can walk up to any M3/M4 on the street or at the dealer and use that VIN, so it's not like it's really a secret and bad things are going to happen to you if someone knows your VIN. I'm actually amazed that no one has even commented on this one way or another. ???

Maybe because it only takes a little bit of search; see this thread and the VIN of the BS autoshow car is shown, it works.

Anyone in Canada figure out how to download this? (The app is not available in the Canadian store....and it wont let me download it from the US store, even though it is free. )
