Initiation: BMW M Style

Ever since BMW decided that it would call the next iteration of the M3 Coupe an M4, there’s been some mixed reaction from long time M3 fans. That’s why BMW USA decided to put together this short film with an M4 demonstrating its skidding capabilities around a group of previous generation M3s and other high performance M cars.

New name, same old attitude it seems.

When introduced the M4, BMW had put together a drive test in my city with all M cars. Although I drove the car with 270 kmh (legally if I may ad so because BMW had arrange with the highway police that it would be safe when traffic allowed us to floor it) well, actually, I kind of fell in love with the M6! It pulls harder, sounds better and feel planted on the road. Never the less, I can understand why it's faster the M4 around any track. Still, I prefer the M6 any day.

Funny fact - at 270 km/h, behind other M cars, my windshield cracked every 10-15 seconds. The huge rear tires had thrown so many little dust stones that, at the end of the day, the windshield looked almost white.

Hahaha funny story,windshields have always been the problem with me I've been to so Maney meet and drives you can't see crap out my car when the sun hits it.
I will be replacing my M4 badge with a M3 badge lol I have a s85 and a s54 it won't hurt to add this to the family. Only complaint I have and it's a small one that most people would think I'm crazy for bringing it up, but it's the torque dilivery, it's to much at to little rpm. You can't imagine the joy I get when that s54 goes past 5k, or the rush you get when the s85 hits past 6k. It's all good though just a little price you pay

I must be the only person one the Interweb that thinks the new M4 was designed by Homer Simpson.  Give me the old M3 thanks.
