M4 pix

[shane@mbtech]

I am quite disappointed, like for the major part of recent BMWs...

I have been a huge fan of the brand, but I don't like the direction it has taken.

The fact that they call it an M4 is a lack of respect for their heritage.

Plus the car is too big and the design is too "heavy" and complicated. Look at the front bumber design and the rear is even uglier.

My M3 CSL might be my last BMW. :-/

Its meant to be much lighter than an e92.

And if we believed so strongly in heritage, then we would never advance. Things move on, legislation changes, targets have to be met.

Ill either buy one or I wont, but it certainly wont worry me either way.

+1 never been a fan of the ' don't make em like they used too ' brigade either :whistle: :-D

Car looks good as will be the drive, loving the 991 GT3 like mad too and the Porsche bores on the forums hate it .. No mez engine
, no manual etc etc FFS !!

Shane is spot on in that things move on, it's called progress !!

Like the new 991 GT3 also

Depends on what your definition of 'better' is ?

... new cars are inevitably quick, easier to drive, have more technology etc etc ... doesn't mean they are more fun though

I think it's a looker and progressive.

But should've retained M3 moniker and used M4 for four door model.

Pub chat:

Guy1: so just picked up my new car....an M4

Guy2: M4, what's that?

Guy1: you know, the new M3....

Agree, it will be difficult for a few years - an M3CS could have worked

It will be f.ing awesome, the best value sports car ever probably.

Same is said about smg, and 6 cylinder fuel injection engines.,

All subjective. And personal preference. I just appreciate everything for what it is, and sometimes a blend of old and new is a perfect mix

Car pub talk is usually bullshit anyway :hahaha:

E46 M3 CSL & the E9 CSL is a good example

I think the car looks fantastic.

Lawsy, the complaint of lots of BMW fans is that there are no hardcore cars anymore.
i.e. the Z4 (remember I have the 35is) is a fantastic car and I would love a version with NA engine (the S65), sport suspension and BBK.
So BMW doesn't make a hardcore version and some of us feel neglected as we would love to see a more focused version.
It would be fantastic if we see the new M4 (what a name ???) in CSL version.
Unfortunately, it will not happen therefore 'we' will feel unsatisfied for not having a hardcore version.

The M3 GTS & the CRT were the last hard core examples - the new M4 will be tunable to be much faster than both.

The E46 CSL was a very special car, not be repeated anytime soon - new ones will be faster for sure, but speed without feeling is not so addictive. Think the Cooper S, Escort Twin cams, Lotus Cortinas, 991RS & the like
