things you think BMW could have added to the m4

karbonphiber · 11-30-2013, 03:23 PM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

I'll start:
- Active ventilated hood for intercooler supply air
- LED rear taillights
- CSL style rear bootlid

I believe they should have focused more on subtracting rather than adding.

BMWJ · 11-30-2013, 03:37 PM

I'll say it first....

V8

Was gonna say an addl 1.0L and 2 cylinders less the turbos lol.

But doesnt the car have cfrp ducktail boot already?

Ezio · 11-30-2013, 05:00 PM

a S65 option. and yes i can pay for the gas tax.... rofl

but BMW needs to cut cost, so maybe a S65 option is to much for them.

NOW we're talking!

Seriously, just give us a refresh of the current car and tack-on the ESS Supercharger and throw it under the factory warranty and I would probably be at the dealership with my money right now. I'll pay the gas-guzzler tax!

Jockey · 11-30-2013, 05:58 PM

Haha, the same guys that I'm sure were bashing the E90 for having a V8 now want a V8 back. Priceless

I'll take the I6 TT thank you.

But what else could BMW added? Nothing. Why you may ask? I think the base price is already going to be high enough. If I wanted to spend high 5-figures/6-figures on a car, I would've bought a Porsche.

XtoM · 11-30-2013, 05:59 PM

Yeah go back to the iconic V8

ixse · 11-30-2013, 07:01 PM

lol gotta luv all these v8 comments.. only in america.. bigger is better.. all hell will break loose when the vette n mustangs start coming out w FI engines

BMWJ · 11-30-2013, 07:04 PM

ok fine - no V8

V10 instead

Uneedthis2 · 11-30-2013, 07:14 PM

Lighter/race oriented seats

gee-m-w · 11-30-2013, 10:33 PM

I'll have a hard time ordering this car if it doesn't have LED tail lights. Audi has been doing it since 2005.

You forgot:

- active brake lights
- spark plug filters
- variable tire valves
- a snow machine in the trunk
- and run flats!

BMW are you listening? Out of all of those though the Doppler radar is a must.. I mean it's almost 2014!!

///M ARMY · 12-01-2013, 09:07 AM

Current specs are just fine. Any engine upgrade to a v8 will be in a different martlet such as the m5 market. The s65 motor lacked a lot of things. The new motor is making up for it
