New BMW M4 - Dubai

So I was looking for a car to replace my f10 5 series. The cars I was interested in was:

Maserati Ghibli
Jag f-type
Porsche cayman gts
Audi rs7

Eventually took the leap after months of searching and settled with the BMW m4. I am very happy with the purchase and enjoy the car everyday even when used as a daily driver.

Did the usual external modifications and now time to decide on the exhaust system. As its still new I am still doing research on whether to stay stock or go with akrapovic etc..

You can check out the short video I made on the car. More to come.

Thanks!

There are some great aftermarket systems. 👍

Agreed will decide soon once I see them in person. I have only really seen them on videos and it doesn't give the same effect.

Haha you made me laugh when I read this. I know Seniorleb also has the white bmw m4 too but he doesn't have the same carbon front splitters as me and his number plate is different. You can go back and see to compare.

Will do, I'll be back in the UAE during September this year for a few months. Debating on sending over my M4 but I'm worried since it's not "Gulf Spec" and the cooling may not be up to par, although the weather will be kind during winter.

I think it should be ok. Alot of people buy Non Gulf spec cars mainly from the US. I assume that it should be alright considering they do get imported quite often.

That's good to know, when it starts hitting 45+ Celsius I know our cars don't do well with all that heat. I heard BMW in general within the GCC isn't as reliable because of the heat as other models are.

I had to get the car tented, I would start the vent remotely during the summer and try to avoid parking in direct sun. In general the AC in BMWs is not great when it comes to gulf summer heat. Compared to any Japanese brand for example
