World Premiere: BMW M4 Coupe Concept

ChrisK · 08-15-2013, 01:11 PM

Looks great!

Bart@AUTOcouture · 08-15-2013, 01:11 PM

Ok fine, I'll take one.

IND-Distribution · 08-15-2013, 01:13 PM

Cant wait to get one!

solstice · 08-15-2013, 01:14 PM

So the WorldCarfans site cites BMW press conference at 6pm Pacific Time. Is that official?

My wish list for info in this order:

1. Steering system
2. Approx. Weight
3. Engine layout ( V6/I6 )
4. FI configuration
5. Suspension type
6. Hp/Tq

I think 7-8k should probably do it, if they are 10k on the M5/M6

Pedestrian safety requirements no doubt. It creates an impact crush zone on the bumper between the hood, in attempt to prevent it from directly axing into their leg.

Looks likely and will be a very pricey options, minimally $5k. Also they are carbon ceramic which is an entirely different beast than carbon fiber...

DAMN!!

CanAutM3 · 08-15-2013, 01:25 PM

No full view of the hood though...

We might still have a surprise regarding the power dome and hood vents setup

I love the front lip and diffuser. I hope they make it to production. The exhaust is also much nicer than the ones we saw on the test mules. Looks like an M-performance exhaust and hopefully it is the basic configuration.

Note: front tires are 255/30R20

zuggerat89 · 08-15-2013, 01:26 PM

Wow that diffuser is nuts!

This might be out of my price range now. That sucks if that's true.

Dick Is Hard!!!!!

davem3fan · 08-15-2013, 01:33 PM

I'm waiting for the sedan.
I prefer to scare the whole family in comfort.

I also plan to give the new car a model year or two to prove itself RELIABLE.

Jblack4083 · 08-15-2013, 01:34 PM

I really like how the fender vent came out...

The rear bumper needs work.

Sean@PSI · 08-15-2013, 01:34 PM

Cannot wait to get ours!!!

BMWRL · 08-15-2013, 01:34 PM

OH SWEET JESUS!!!! DO NOT CHANGE A THING TO PRODUCTION!!!!!

All these details finally unveiled, this was well worth the wait..
I just like every bit of this car.

signes · 08-15-2013, 01:35 PM

Agreed--and all the LCI changes they screw the first year buyers with!
