We Picture the BMW M4 Coupe (F82) Based On 4 Series Coupe Concept

COMMENTS

We've put together some renders of what the BMW M4 Coupe (F82) may look similar to, starting with the 4 Series Coupe Coupe and incorporating what the M3/M4 prototype spy photos and videos have revealed so far, along with some speculation and imagination.

We've given the M4 the 1M+M6 style front bumper spied on the F80 M3 prototypes (although the M4 bumper will likely look somewhat different to distinguish it from the M3). We've also incorporated the M sideskirts, wide fenders and hood bulge spied in the prototype photos. It may also get double slatted grilles with M4 badge and a shaped carbon fiber roof, both like on the M6 Coupe.

For more M3/M4 coverage see: http://www.bimmerpost.com/m3/f30m3/

To recap, here is an updated list of what we know about the F80/F82 so far:

Lighter than current M3
- targeting E46 M3 weight (source)
More powerful than current M3
- approximately same HP, but around 100 lb-ft more torque (in range of 395 lb-ft) (source)
Faster than current M3 (source)
More efficient than current M3 (source)
Powered by an inline 6 cylinder multi-turbo engine (source, source)
Offered with optional or standard manual transmission
Rumored Electric Power Steering (completely reworked for precision for M3/M4)
Tires (from prototype) - Michelin Pilot Super Sport: 255/35/19 (front), 275/35/19 (rear)
Front styling to feature elements from the M6 and 1M coupe, with Air Curtain technology (our render)
Hood to feature power/vent bump
M3 Introduced late 2013 - early 2014 (concept debuts earlier)
M3 European Delivery begins July 2014, at earliest
M4 Introduced no earlier than late 2014

Woah very nice! So aggressive but still sleek and tasteful. Can't wait for the M4.

This...the wait may kill me

Holy f*ck that's just sex on wheels. A debadging is in order, however. Or as someone stated above, invest in some M3 emblems.

Stronie · 12-10-2012, 03:29 PM

Sorry looks like a 2Dr Accord.

I know this, It will look awesome. I'm just not feeling this render.

This looks nothing like an Accord coupe. The C63 coupe looks like one.

You must think the 4 series coupe concept looks like an accord too then since they based this directly off a photo of that car.

klammer · 12-10-2012, 03:39 PM

That thing looks bad ass.

Unfortunately I won't buy the first year of the new turbo M, so that looks like 3 years for me

Prissy · 12-10-2012, 03:40 PM

I don't know....

dmist199 · 12-10-2012, 03:41 PM

wow!

Smokey · 12-10-2012, 03:56 PM

Nice. Love the aggressive stance

EdM5 · 12-10-2012, 03:56 PM

I'll have one in black please.
But seriously? Late 2014?
