  • Created with Class, Designed as an Icon: Special Edition Vorsteiner GTRS4

    In order to celebrate its 10 year anniversary, the American tuner car manufacturer Vorsteiner has created a special limited edition vehicle that has the enigmatic name of GTRS4. It becomes obvious from the released pictures, that the car will take the world out of its orbit and will shake it so hard that everything ordinary will drop on the ground. We see a legend! We see an icon! We see perfectness in extraordinary glare!

    The upgraded vehicle is based on the 2015 BMW M4 Coupe and will feature carbon fiber body kit. The focus of the Vorsteiner’s team of professionals is directed towards crafting an organic design that not only fits the initial body lines of the BMW M4 but also preserve and demonstrate a full capacity of functionality and everyday drivability.

    Making sure that every detail is set to its best, the tuner revolutionized their GTS package from last month, providing the coupe with ESS Tuning’s E-Tronic engine which will be able to fire up output from around 431 HP (317 kW) to 550 HP (405 kW). The exclusive BMW M4 GTRS4 comes with three-piece 20-inch alloy wheels wrapped around in Pirelli P Nero tires and KW Suspension. There is no information about the performance details yet but the stock BMW M4 Coupe boosts to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 4.1 seconds with the optional seven-speed M DCT. With the standard six-speed manual gearbox, though, the car accomplishes it in 4.3 seconds.

    The Special Edition GTRS4 package will include:

    • Carbon Fiber Front Bumper with an Integrated Front Splitter Element
    • Carbon Fiber Wide Front Fender with Ventilation (2 inches wider on each side)
    • Carbon Fiber Aero Side Blade Elements
    • Carbon  Fiber Wide rear Fender (3.5 inches wider on each side)
    • Carbon Fiber Rear Bumpers with an Integrated Rear Diffuser Element
    • Vorsteiner 90mm Quad Exhaust Tip Finishers ( in Brushed or Black nuance)
    • Vorsteiner Chrome Trunk Badging
    • GTRS4 Forged 3-Piece Wheels, 20×10.5 J; 20×13.5J in Gloss Brushed Shadow

  • Vorsteiner Teases a 10th Anniversary Edition Vehicle Called GTRS4

    Vorsteiner-teaser-front-THUMBIt’s rather unusual for tuning companies to release teasers, but this is what we got today from the Californian-based specialists at Vorsteiner. Obviously they are preparing for the SEMA Show and this is why they have released a sketch of the vehicle they are premiering there. The details disclosed are scarce except for the name of the car, which is GTRS4 Wide Body. Although the manqué of the automobile wasn’t revealed, it is clearly visible that it is a BMW.

    Even more, the kit will probably be offered on the BMW M4 Coupe. Judging from the sketches, it will feature an aggressive front bumper and a bulging hood. The mage also shows that there will be also added extended fenders and an aggressive rear diffuser. This tuning comes to celebrate Vorsteiner’s 10th anniversary. The car will be officially revealed on 4th of November during the SEMA Show.

    2014 BMW M4 Coupe is powered by a 3.0 liter TwinPower Turbo Inline six-cylinder engine. It produces 431 horsepower (317 kW) at 5,500RPM and 550Nm (406 lb-ft) at 1,850RPM. The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox as a standard. The car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds and has a top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) or an optional 280 km/h (174 mph).

    The acceleration becomes even better if the car is fitted with the optional 7-speed ///M DCT, precisely – it is 4.1 seconds. The M4 is able to cover 100 km with just 8.8 liters of fuel in the combined cycle with the manual transmission and 8.3 liter with the DCT. Some of the special features for the MY2014 feature an updated MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension.
