Just got mine yesterday, feels like a dream. Thank you for video definitely helped me pull the trigger on getting one.

Had M4 for 2 years, Sold it. Stage2 with bunch of carbon stuff on the exterior. Lowering springs, it was black on black. Murdered out. For the money I agree you get tons of stuff! + more! I got the car with 43k miles- sold it with 50k miles, and yeah the DRIVETRAIN Manulfaction did show ones! but after restarting it it was fine, no crank hub mod! its not expensive to fix it. but decided to part it out and get something that will make me more happy! One thing that I hated about it the most, traction issues first and second gear it sucked- whenever I wanted to just take off. I know I could go with Slicks but they would suck in rain, exhaust note was also not my thing, I sold it and got GT-R. Love it... it's a different animal---

I know a few m4 owners with 40k+ miles on it and havent had any major drivetrain issues

Got me a 2018 Yas Marina Blue in manual. Had it for 4 years and love it. Really no complaints.

Also, apparently they have issues with the factory top mount charge cooler. Even newer cars with few thousand miles start leaking randomly and it's just a bad design. Easiest way to check if it's leaking is to open the coolant reservoir for the TMIC that's up by the firewall behind the intercooler. If it's really low there's a good chance it's leaking and it leaks the coolant into intake ports down into the cylinders. I checked mine and it's fine, but ordered a aftermarket intercooler for peace of mind because I don't want it leaking into my engine lol.

Just paid deposit of a 2018M3! Love ur video, I started watch at m235 videos, by that time I also own a m235!

Came across a vid by you last week. Enjoyed it and subscribed--also "like" them. Do not agree with your opinion on the G8X, however. My M4 Competition--black, is terrific looking. I consider the older M 3-4 nice looking, but too generic. BMW took a chance with the new direction and nailed it. Not sure I would think so highly if my car was a lighter color, but back--or gray, makes it look menacing. With 550 to the crank, it backs it up. Otherwise, keep the vids coming. I've shared a view as well.

The only thing i would have to disagree / answer what you said about the tires msp4s is the best choice for sure lol unless youre tracking with it, if you have issues with grip you should be increasing your rear tire size too -yours dont look too wide and doing like 11.5 is standard - for the work your put in and wheels you got, getting a wider set of rears could definitely help with traction - but they do have to be warm tires

when you turn off your traction control the car goes into full track mode btw. so when you rev it it'll sound a whole lot better and gives full HP/TQ I believe when driving

Gotta tune it, it need to smooth out power delivery because the stock sport plus mode is two twitchy, very easy to have the pedal move with the G forces off the line which can make it very "twitchy" like fast slow fast slow, hard describe it but the pedal is so sensitive that the bumps in the road affect your foot enough to affect either more power or mess power which translates to a twitchy start, but this is also just practice and only in the sport plus modes, in sport mode it's totally fine. So a simple few hundred dollars fixes this plus you'll get another 100 HP and 100tq so win win

I just bought an 18 M4 with 20k kilometres. I’m excited to collect it

On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate M4 vs M235i?

I hope to see this M4 at SDbimmerfest part 2.

I really like the m4s, & this car is nice but one things for sure you'd better have plenty of cash on hand because the maintenance of these cars is no joke. I knew a guy who owned an m5 he purchased it from some lawyer & it was heavily modded, it was so fast it beat a corvette, but when it came time to get work on the suspension, the dealer wanted $7000 needless to say you must have cash to maintain it.

Is there any mods you have to do to put larger tires?

a stock 2019 m4 dct vs stock 2019 gt 5.0 10 spd. which is faster off the line and on a roll?

great video. do you still own her? any issues since this video posted?

They say tires are the most important mod and I think it’s true I’m running a thereabouts 450 hp/480 lbs (crank) 335i and once I got pilot sport 4 Ss it made a world of a difference on my staggered setup

How is the ride after lowering it? Did you just get springs or coilovers?

Boost by gear tune for traction management.

How would you compare this to your m235i, power and drive ability wise?

Keep in mind that even though it's a 2018, it was in its 5th year of production and even before that when its 3 series platform was introduced. Falling behind interior and exterior design trends is one downside to BMWs insistence on 7 year cycles. They're all new for 2021 but will last until 2027!
