BMW M4 Is showing it’s true colors. The Vehicle is a six-speed manual. The car has a layer of usefulness. From the spacious back seats to the adaptive dampers. Even if you were to hit a pothole, chances are, it wouldn’t disturb the peace that could be found when driving this BMW. The benefits here, far outweigh the downfalls. Cruising around town at approximately 70 mph is a welcome change from the 69 decibels of engine and tire humming. But this is given that M Sound is disabled.
Oh yes. That’s right. M Sound. What is that? When you see that the volume is turned upwards on synthesized engine sounds as they play throughout the 464-watt audio system and it’s 16 speakers. Such a digital enhancement is on BMW’s part to shift what you may normally hear from the twin-turbos of the engine. It’s not too loud, and it’s not too soft. It just happens to be belonging to the M4 and it’s capabilities.
Furthermore, this BMW is able to steer pretty well. It doesn’t give off too much of a whiplash inspite of a 2.1 turn lock-to-lock. Yet, the BMW does lack precision that would normally be found in a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4. Nevertheless, the BMW M4 can steer a little better than that specific Porsche. Which is to say, you should steer clear of the GT4 at all costs.
This year’s version of BMW’s M4 weighs up to 3709. The newest twin-turbo six is certainly offering 48 plus horsepower, upon close inspection. Which is crazy because that’s to say that with stick-shift, this M4 can offer a total of 473 horsepower. Not to mention the torque has been raised to about 406 pound-feet for only $72,795.
What else can be said about the M4 than that it has an easy-to-read tachometer and the six-speed transmission that brings 60mph to 3.8 seconds.
