Looks like a Pep Boys special to me

Can you imagine how many people would try to race you on the street when you stop at a light?

And given how difficult it is to launch an M4 from a dead stop, the M4 GTS would likely lose every race. Notwithstanding that fact, it's not likely a car destined for the street.

SICK!!!!

Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

But I agree with your post. They put the holes in the wrong section of the seat!!

chipotle_napkins · 11-18-2015, 11:50 PM

Those tail lights please !! and the iconic m4 lights while we're at it and I swear i'll go place an order right now

M3 Number 86 · 11-18-2015, 11:52 PM

I need to try to fab up the interior door panels to something like that.

US version has got these almost stock seats while ROW gets bucket seats.

ElMills · 11-19-2015, 03:38 AM

Manual seats

random thing but I wish this was an options for more Bmws!

markee_dude · 11-19-2015, 05:59 AM

Just because it's flashy doesn't mean it doesn't drive well. Heck the Nürburgring time should justify that. Most definitely not a show car like the muscle cars and Italian supercars used to be long ago.

I agree it drives well and still fast but lacks functionality. A lot of show cars are fast too. GTS is suppose to be a factory version track car. Why have a harness bar/half cage that you can even use with those seats. That's just one item.

Now that's right and very nice. I have leather pole position in my M3. Most people think it's stock match interior really well

Perfect snowplow for the winter

Could someone please lift the lid surrounding the waterfall for the water injection system and take a photo of the Snow Performance stuff. Brackets pumps wires etc.

kamichael · 11-19-2015, 10:22 AM

Anyone who is interested in one had better get on a list, seeing this car at the show means there's only 699 more available - 299 in the US, haha.

BavarianDevil · 11-19-2015, 10:31 AM

What a train wreak of a car. My only question is why?

bjcarls · 11-19-2015, 01:10 PM

Those that don't like the lip have probably never been to a racetrack before...it's not there for style points.

Professor///M · 11-19-2015, 01:28 PM

Anyone else besides me just want the seatbelt with the stitching?

cloudninenyc · 11-19-2015, 02:03 PM

awesome looking car I love it !
