Presentation of the new BMW M4 GT4 with BMW M Motorsport design heralds sales phase

2023 BMW M4 GT4 - Front View

With the official presentation in the run-up to the SRO race weekend at the VIRginia International Raceway (USA), BMW M Motorsport has rung in the sales phase of the new BMW M4 GT4, which is set to continue its predecessor’s run of success in the internationally established GT4 category as of the 2023 season. The car was on display with the BMW M Motorsport design for the first time on Friday, having previously successfully completed a test race in camouflage livery at the Nürburgring-Nordschleife (GER). The new BMW M4 GT4 goes on sale with plenty of technical highlights and at a net price of 187,000 euros. Production is set to start in October 2022, to allow the first cars to be delivered to teams in time for the start of the 2023 season.

“We took on the challenge to develop a successor to the highly successful first-generation BMW M4 GT4”, said Franciscus van Meel, CEO of BMW M. “Using a wide range of customer feedback, our experienced development team and the new sixth generation BMW M4 based production car has led to a faster, reliable and very emotional all new BMW M4 GT4.”

The new BMW M4 GT4 was developed to win races and titles, just like its predecessor. To this end, the latest key technologies from the production model have been combined with a range of components from its big brother, the BMW M4 GT3. The developers focussed on four key areas: performance, reliability, cost efficiency and maintainability. In addition, further developments in ergonomics and electronics have considerably improved the customer experience. These include the M Track Cockpit, which makes many vehicle settings and checks possible directly via the control elements, thereby minimising the more time-consuming connection to a laptop.

When developing the new BMW M4 GT4, BMW M Motorsport had the backing of support from strong partners. Bcomp, H&R, PUMA, RAVENOL and RECARO shared valuable expertise in their areas, and in doing so made an important contribution to the success of the project.

After the presentation in the USA, the BMW M4 GT4 is entering the final phase of testing. This will include the car taking part in the next race of the Nürburgring Endurance Series and in the 24 Hours of Portimão (POR). Production for delivery to customers is due to start in October 2022. The net price of the BMW M4 GT4 has been set at 187,000 euros. Thanks to near-production development and the pending SRO homologation, the car can be used in all GT4 race series around the world.

On 24 May 1972, the partnership agreement for BMW Motorsport GmbH was signed. Exactly 50 years later to the day, the company now known as BMW M GmbH is presenting an exclusive collection of edition models as a current anniversary highlight.

With the BMW M 50 Jahre edition of the BMW M3 Sedan (fuel consumption combined: 10.2 – 9.8 litres/100 km; CO2 emissions combined: 231 – 223 g/km according to WLTP; data according to NEDC: – ) and the BMW M4 Coupe (fuel consumption combined: 10.1 – 9.8 litres/100 km; CO2 emissions combined: 230 – 223 g/km according to WLTP; data according to NEDC: – ), M enthusiasts around the globe can express both their passion for racing and their awareness of tradition. Limited editions, exclusive design features and individually selectable equipment options ensure that each edition vehicle can become a unique car that reflects the personal style of its owner.

The BMW M 50 Jahre edition is based on the current generation of the most successful model series in the history of BMW M GmbH. Worldwide, the model designations BMW M3 and BMW M4 are synonymous with high performance in the premium mid-range segment. The edition models are powered by a straight six-cylinder engine with up to 375 kW/510 hp, M TwinPower Turbo technology and high-revving characteristics. Depending on the model variant, its power is transferred to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission or an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic, or fully variably distributed to all four wheels using M xDrive technology.

The exclusive character of the edition models is the result of a market-specific configuration with unique design features and a strictly limited number of units in each case. In this way, fascinating rarities are created for the most important automotive markets around the world. For the exterior paintwork of the edition vehicles, style-defining colours from the history of BMW M GmbH are being reissued. These are complemented by M forged wheels in a similarly exclusive colour scheme and striking accents in the interior.

In Europe and other selected sales regions, BMW M GmbH is offering an exclusive edition of the BMW M4 Coupe to mark its anniversary. The two-door BMW M 50 Jahre edition comes in the exterior colours Carbon Black, Macao Blue, Brands Hatch Grey, Imola Red and San Marino Blue.

In addition, a similarly limited number of edition vehicles of the BMW M4 Coupe are being produced for the Chinese automotive market and available in the exterior paint finishes Fire Orange and Stratus Grey. This colour selection relates to the fact that the anniversary of BMW M GmbH is being celebrated in China in the Year of the Tiger. The M forged wheels on these vehicles are finished in matt Orbit Grey in conjunction with the Fire Orange body colour and in matt Gold Bronze in conjunction with the Stratus Grey exterior paint finish.

In the interior of all edition vehicles based on the BMW M4 Coupe, door sill panels bearing the lettering “Edition 50 Jahre BMW M”, a metal plaque on the centre console with the lettering “M4 Edition 50 Jahre BMW M” and a corresponding imprint on the headrests of the standard M sports seats and the optional M carbon bucket seats for driver and front passenger hint at the anniversary.

The edition model on the basis of the BMW M3 Sedan was designed exclusively for the US and Canadian automotive markets. There is a choice of five exterior paint finishes for the 500 models of the four-door high-performance sports car available there, each of which is reminiscent of one of its five predecessors: from Cinnebar Red to Techno Violet, Interlagos Blue and Fire Orange to Limerock Grey.

BMW Auto Shopping 101

2019-BMW-910 BMW remains one of the best car brands in the world for all the right reasons. The lineup from the company accommodates every need. Need a sports saloon that gets you excited? You have the M5 for that. Are comfort and luxury important for you? The 7-series is the one to go for.

Over the years, BMW has gotten better at making cars for the market segments they cover. Even the regular 5-series BMWs are so good that you seldom need to go down the full M5 route to have an exciting car. If you are on the search for the perfect BMW, here are some tips to keep in mind.

Start with Your Needs

As tempting as it is to start thinking about what you want from a car, you always need to start with your, well, needs. How will you use the car? What kind of terrain will you be driving on? Do you need special features such as 4WD or a higher ride height?

The more of these questions you answer, the better you will understand your needs. You also have to take into account the number of passengers you need to carry and whether you want to use the car on a regular basis.

With your needs in mind, you can continue with the next step, which is….

Pick a Series

BMW has a lot of options for you. The 2-series cars are compact and exciting. You have the 3-series cars designed to accommodate most users, with the M3 – and now the M4 – offering sportier options. The 5-series, as mentioned before, is bigger and more luxurious, but you still have the M5 if you want to enjoy the sporty aura of the car. The 6-series used to bridge the gap between the 5-series and the 7-series, but the new 8-series coupé replaces the older 8-series with a line of exotics. You also have the X-series, BMW’s own SUV line. The M-series, obviously, represents sportier versions of the other series. Even the M8 Gran Coupe is designed to have a sporty feel to it.

BMW doesn’t stop there. The BMW Z4 is still in the company’s product lineup. This small roadster is a joy to drive. Both the i3 and the i8, on the other hand, are new cars in BMW’s i-series, which incorporates electric motors.

Customizing Your BMW

After selecting the kind of BMW that you want, you still have a wealth of options to choose from. In fact, BMW makes it possible for customers to fully personalize their cars down to the last detail. With the 3-series, for example, you can choose the 320i or 330i, a coupé or a sedan, and more.

These customization options make every BMW personal and a true joy to drive. From the moment you make that purchase decision, you will be rewarded with a pleasant driving (and customer) experience.

The last step is getting suitable car insurance for your BMW. Insuranks makes this process easy. You can use the quote search tool available at https://www.insuranks.com/Auto-Insurance/Car-Insurance-quotes. Enter details about your new BMW and they will list and rank the best insurance deals and providers.

The rest is easy from there. Once you’ve had your car delivered and ensured you have suitable insurance, you can start appreciating how well BMW does things as you drive your new car.

Taking technology and refinement even further, we do witnes a rather incredible machine.

2018 MANHART BMW MH550

We will get straightforward to the drivetrain system. To be honest, the power unit is not that different from the predecessor model: a 3.0-liter S55 Biturbo with additional 119hp and comprehensive software remapping. This means that the MH4 produces the massive 550hp and 82Nm of torue. Sweet, right?

2018 MANHART BMW MH550

Furthermore, MH4 benefits from new and exclusive exhaust system with catless downpipe, new MANHART muffler and a KW variant 3 coilover suspension. This system allows the vehicle to be lowered as possible and at the same time ensures stability and confidence even in the most challenging turns and track curves.

Also, both front spoiler and rear diffuser are made of glossy carbon and resemble the new carbon-fiber mirror caps. Furthermore, MANHART has included a massive carbon-fiber rear spoiler and super-cool read side blades. Neat!

Of course, in MANHART manner, the interior won’t let anyone down either. The red roll cage is placed where the rear seats once were and resemble the exterior color scheme.

Wetterauer showcases a fine-tuned M4 machine. Check it out!

2018 Wetterauer BMW M4 Wetterauer and BMW have a lot in common. Throughout the course of time both brands have crossed paths and have presented us unique projects. And now we are eager to showcase the last one revealed: the WP620. The original M4, a favorite to the tuners since its launch, has undergone impressive visual and technical upgrades and demonstrate how there can be a rather impressive symbiosis between tuner and a stock machine.

2018 Wetterauer BMW M4

As far drivetrain system is what makes the entire M4 lineup stand out is the plenty of power (quite obviously) and the capability of making us feel just awesome in such a vehicle. The particular M4 that has undergone tuning surgery delivers a total of 431hp and 550Nm of torque. However, with the aid of Wetterauer team the sporty beauty has managed to expand its capabilities to a total of 620hp and 760Nm of torque. Massive, isn’t it? These number contribute to a rather fast and menacing sprint: the vehicle nails the 0-100km/h run in mere 3,6 seconds and chases a top speed of 330km/h. Also, further upgrades include exclusive Akrapovic titanium exhaust system and Wetteraurer high-performance gearbox software. Sweet.

Of course, M4 vehicles are known for one more prominent thing: looks. And more precisely, sexy looks. However, it appears that the stock design is not appealing enough for Wetterauer team. What the team has done to enhance the looks of the lucky M4 is adding a fixed rear spoiler, covering the body in neat yellow/black body paint and adding neat (and large!) 20-inch OZ Ultraeggera rims. Sweet.

Driving the BMW M4 better with some help from BILSTEIN

BILSTEIN BMW M4 front view

This beautiful BMW M4 has received some special attention from the specialist at BILSTEIN. They have announced the release of brand new DampTronic shock absorbers and suspensions for M4. The good news is that both are also suitable for the M3. Both models share the same 431 HP biturbo inline six-cylinder engine is perfectly paired with the suspension.

However, the sporty top line models from the 3 Series and 4 Series are equipped with entirely different axle design. So, adding to the standard suspension, customers can also choose the adaptive M suspension. What it does is to adapt to the current road conditions within the blink of the eye.

BILSTEIN have developed the new shock absorber, so that it can ensure the driving remains enjoyable after many miles of exploitation. In fact, there are various types of shock absorbers, starting with the B4 DampTronic, the stronger B6 DampTronic and the high-end coilover suspension B16 DampTronic. Another advantage that they have is that they can be added effortlessly over the factory-installed active suspension.

To go into details, the B6 DampTronic mono-tube gas-pressure shock absorbers add more damping force than the B4, performance and durability. In addition, the vehicles with the adaptive M suspension can be equipped with the BILSTEIN B16 DampTronic. Its advantage is that it has a tenfold adjustment option of bump and rebound stage.

G-Power shows how to make the fastest coupe even faster

BMW M4 Coupe gets a comprehensive power upgrade

Did you know that the BMW M4 GTS is almost twice the price of a normal M4 Coupe? It is priced approximately at 142,600 euros ($161,200 USD), but this does not seem to bother enthusiasts. Another interesting fact about the limited edition M4 GTS is that it will be produced in 700 copies, which is one of the reasons for being so expensive. But even this exclusivity could be made better, right? Here step in G-POWER: BMW M-Series tuning specialists, who have more than 35 years of experience in the modification of the Bavarian models.

They have actually recognized that the new M4 GTS is the perfect machine to make full use of their Bi-Tronik 2 V3 ECU upgrade. So they did change not one, but actually four of these significant models.

The goal of G-POWER tuning experts was to achieve more than 615 hp. So what they did is to undertake significant internal modifications to the turbine wheel and housing, add new stainless steel downpipes without catalysts for reduced backpressure, and boost the curves of the Bi-Tronik 2 V3 via custom mapping.

G-POWER BMW M4 GTS F82 front view

As a result, the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter straight six engine, has an enhance power output from 500 hp (368 kW) to a whopping 615 hp (452 kW), with peak torque jumping from 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) to 760 Nm (561 lb-ft). With the help of the Launch Control, the G-POWER-modified M4 GTS sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds on its way to the 320 km/h top speed.

By the way, there is an option which does not include the aforementioned mechanical modifications. This means that there is a basic conversion that uses the G-POWER Bi-Tronik 2 V2 with mapping optimization and boosts the output to 575 hp (423 kW) and 740 Nm (546 lb-ft).

If you ask about chassis modifications, here’s only one and it is the new wheels. The reason for this is the ultra exclusive fully adjustable coilover suspension that comes as standard with the M4 GTS. Precisely, G-POWER added in-house made lightweight HURRICANE RR sized 21-inches and fitted with low-profile performance tyres. Enjoy!
