so if I take my back seat out and fit a half roll cage, will it become a sports car?

M3——- 2 kids here 1yr & 3yr.
Never really liked the M4....it’s something about the sedan body in my eyes looks meaner. Last edited by LukeM15; 10-09-2018 at 06:45 PM.. |

M3 all the way. Styling is way more aggressive and it's practical.
You can easily tell the difference between a 340i and a m3...not so easy with the 440i and m4.

I don't really know how the M3 drives compared to the M4 but I've heard the M3 handles a bit better? Is the competition package much needed?

Now, which one you should get boils down to personal needs and preferences.

I also think when comparing the M3 and M4 that are about 99.9% alike, "better" handling just comes to the opinion of the individual driving both cars back to back. |

"Better aerodynamics" needs to be put in context and interpreted correctly. I don't recall reading that the M3 has better aerodynamics than the M4. What I do however recall is that the 3-series body shape is less prone to lift than the 4-series body, hence "better aerodynamics". To correct this extra lift from the 4-series body, they redesigned the trunk lid on the M4 to create more downforce, making it lightweight in the process as a side benefit. Since the M3 did not need as much "aerodynamic correction", it could go about with the standard 3-series trunk lid with a small spoiler. The end result is both the M3/4 having practically the same aerodynamic characteristics. From the Deep Dive and Interview Quote:

Ironically you say at the very end we are in agreement of me stating the cars are practically identical and that "better" handling is up to the individual driving both vehicles. Yet your original post you made sure your first sentence started off "The M3 does not handle better." So which one is it? |

The M4 stance is bad a** especially a bit lowered. I really like the M4.
The M3 is one of the best looking 4 door M3's (including E36, E46, E90) ever created. Aggressive stance and beautiful from every angle. |

They are not as obviously different as the 340i and the M3, but the M4 definitely has booty while the 440i is more svelte.

Pls allow me to totally nerd out here.
I consider the F8X to be one of the best designed cars ever made. It's easily the best looking M released to date. It's crazy that a model with commuter car aspirations can carry so much visual heft. Bravo, Florian Nissl. I absolutely am mesmerized by a properly lowered F8X on the right set of wheels/tires. Not many out there for sure even on this forum. Generally speaking, I adore both rear ends, M3 and M4. Crazy wide with the right suspension + wheels/tires setup. The M4 wins from every other angle. M3 suffers, in particular, from the head-on view because it sits a couple of inches taller due to the sedan greenhouse. The M4 looks lower/wider. M3 looks tall and narrower. I can tell instantly whenever I come across an F8X coming at me on the road. Day's end, I don't kick either out of bed. From this video:

Best rear end of any car I've ever seen south of hypercar heights. The aggressive trunk lid spoiler, the poke of the rear Rotiforms in black, the CF diffuser and lowered stance... pure fire. Props.
