I like how the 2 biggest critiques of this car are either the front or the fact that it's "too fast". Like, the two previous generations were almost outclassed by most cars in their competitive lineup respectively, and now people whine about how it's become "too fast"?
People need to get a grip 😂
It offers supercar performance from the early 2010s for half the price

BMW is much like Ford and Dodge in that they don't have an E-segment sports car (R8/lower-end Huracán/911, AMG GT/SL, Vantage, Portofino/Roma/MC20, McLaren GT/Artura, Corvette rival) in their lineup. Instead, they milk the D-segment coupe platform to up the segment's ante. The M4 CSL, Shelby GT500 CFTP, and Challenger Super Stock (indirect successor to the E-segment Viper) are kings of the D-segment sports class.

Ford has an exclusive supercar, and that's considered an F-segment sports car in the same vein as most Ferraris, Lambos and McLarens (F8/296/SF90/812 models, Huracán STO/Aventador models, 720S/765LT). Mercedes also made three (SLR McLaren, SL65 AMG Black Series, and AMG GT Black Series), excluding the two homologated hypercars. Porsche made only a select few F-segment sports cars (911 GT2 and GT2 RS models). BMW, just the M1.

TL;DR: Less is more!

I gotta be honest, I really despised the grille and made fun of how the front looks. But all things considered, they did a genuinely great job at the thing overall. Only few 4 seaters can match the performance, let alone in its price range. Even the Carrera S is scared of that thing LMAO

And here comes the final part. Stats might be a little off.

Now that we've come to the point where a BMW D segment car has over 500 PS, I think it's a good idea to go back to the roots and see how the M3 and its rivals evolved.

I put a "little" list together with all cars from 1984 to 2013. Took me a lot of work but here it is:

Build year -- Model ---------- Power output -- 0-100 -- 0-160 -- 0-200 -- 0-250 -- Vmax -- Weight

100-200 in exactly 7 seconds in this modified car by AC Schnitzer. It puts out 590 PS, 80 more than the standard model.

Even more proof how fast this car is.
The S15 has more power AND weighs 500kg less.

Jesus christ that's fast

250 kph in 20,11

Very interesting comparison!

Thank you, Hoppelmoppel123, for providing us the full set of acceleration figures for the BMW M4 Competition Coupe from Autocar. The car is quick enough.

Kind regards from FLT 158.

I would still take the Mercedes. It's a V8.

Sorry I don't have a Flickr account so I posted the images of the latest Quattroruote (04/2021) with the laptimes of the M4 Competition RWD and its straight line performances (acceleration, rolling and braking). https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lLXQVk9A_exCZ3Y18szG0E37worIlMM-/view?usp=drivesdk

The car seems to be very good technically, but I can not accept its exterior in any way. On the M3 sedan these huge nostrils look more or less organic, but M4 coupe in my opinion looks terrible from the front.
The black color helps it partially, since the grill is not so conspicuous:

It did 1.14.18 at Vairano and 1.28 at Vairano Pro. That's a pretty damn good time, only 0.2s slower than the Porsche 718 Cayman Gt4 and 0.7s slower than the 992 Carrera S, and 0.7s faster than the Taycan. Compared to the M2CS it's 1 full second faster and compared to the M5 it's 1.7s faster. In straight line it did: 3.8 in the 0-100, 12.2 in the 0-200 and 11.8 in the 1/4 mile. I'll try to post the picture as soon as I can. I don't really remember how to do it though so I would appreciate it if someone reminded me the names of the site to create the image and the other things to do to post it here...

Unlike on SUVs, on the M4 I like the big grill, it looks really aggressive and sporty in my opinion

hmmm, similar ZL1 performance, unless if its higher than 130 mph then ZL1 is going to obliterate it, not bad BMW, 0.1 seconds difference against a monster bargain ZL1, only a 10,000 dollar difference, Let’s see the track comparisons

This thing is crazy fast!!

0-60 3.66 secs
1/4 mile 11.62 secs

0-100 km/h: 3.98
0-200 km/h: 11.9

AWD adds another 23kg and it almost catches M8 in weight department

https://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/neuheiten/bmw-m4-coupe-2021/technische-daten/
0-100 kph: 3.9 s
Top Speed: 250 kph
Fuel: 7.6 - 14.6 l/100 km
CO2: 234 g/km

The exhaust with M-Parts is a lil bit wierd.
