I've had a '24 G83 since September. It's a little bit difficult to explain the experience of owning/driving it. There isn't much it won't do, so you have to be very careful what you ask of it. There isn't anywhere on a public road you can wring one out. This isn't my first convertible, but it's the fastest one I've ever had. The first half of the throttle will make you giggle; the second half will strengthen your relationship with God.

Great Review…Covertibles have certainly come a long since the days of compromised dynamics and heavier bodies to in an effort to compensate for the missing roof and you clearly enjoyed this one…especially given it’s all weather tractability…but..in the end…I would still take the keys for the all wheel drive M3 Competition..I just feel it’s the better package all round…but then again..that also subjective…which would therefore mean that I am simply biased🤣🤣…Ah well..to each there own😅👌🏽

That! Is how to start a video.....👍🏾 I love and share your passion for soft top motoring. No rain = roof down. Why not M2 convertible?? It is an amazing car + I would choose the air neck Scarf..

Great review. Would you have this or the m8 conv?

Great review. I’ve just chopped in my 840i convertible for an M440i convertible. Always love a convertible and I actually prefer the confidence that XDrive gives you and the car feels so much more agile and pointy than the 8 series. For me the M440i provides all the performance I’ll ever need for substantially less cost than the M4, but generally I think BMW have absolutely nailed the 4 series.

Convertible every time for me, however a base price of over £80,000 is far too much for me

£80K plus I’d hope it would be good. That aside I’d certainly do the North Coast 500 in the Summer under blue sky in it. Perfect mix of performance and able to feel connected to the Landscape. You’d have to be pushing it round a track to probably feel any difference Coupe and Conv. I’d take the Conv every time. Who hasn’t watched the like putting down the roof on a summers day at lights and think flash ……. but wanted to be them in the Car😁

Morning my friend. BMW have the interior nailed with that colour I think. Xdrive and Quattro are impressive, although I don’t fully know the difference, I must watch a video explaining lol to be honest.

I’m tossing up between an m4 convertible and 981 boxster, I think this may just be a better option as a daily

Great video Pete. When I used to have my MG Midget, some 35 years ago, it didn't matter what time of year it was, if it wasn't raining or snowing, I'd have the roof down. Though in really cold weather, and I mean freezing cold, putting the roof back up was always a problem as it like trying to unfold sheet metal. It had become that cold and rigid 8-))... Wasn't it the old axiom that the only convertibles you should buy, were ones that were designed as convertibles? Not ones made convertible by removing a fixed roof. 8-\\...

great review :) exactly my thoughts as well just need to "convert" Joe Achilles as well hahaha :)

Love the video. I'm a BMW fan, but I would have a second hand M5 comp. I'm still don't like the new front.

Wow what a car but I could not think of having a car like this the price is too much for me but I do not like the new nose on it but thanks again for another brilliant video 👍🏻👍🏻

We have a MINI Cabriolet and you just can’t beat open top motoring, add 4wd and that BMW has to be close to perfection

I revisited your review as I’m considering changing my M2 for an M4 and the convertible looks a balance between open top fun and performance…..

It’s a nice car. Problem is it’s not worth double what we paid for an F83 this Feb with only 300 miles on (actually through your friends at Hendy). It’s a better car no doubt but not £45k better. Time was when you waited a bit and your M car would be available with 20ish percent off (as with most BMW’s although my 7 was £40k off list!). That would then make it affordable as depreciation pretty savage. Obviously, currently BMW not doing any discounts but settlement values haven’t reflected market shift. I would suspect a lot of potential repeat M owners are waiting to see what happens. Fine to pay higher prices but BMW need to grow a set and put higher final residuals if they are wanting to shift the market to no discount but higher residuals. Until they do, only mad people will pay full price. PS Interesting to hear your comments on its relative stiffness. F83 is very disappointing on that front - was biggest disappointment. But hell, wife’s happy!

Something like an MX5 RF would be more realistic for me ☺️

You didn't mention how comfortable the ride is in comfort mode. Other reviewers said it was rather jarring on imperfect roads. I'm going to drive one this Friday to see for myself

Hi Ped Rag Top every time😎😎Good looker and very attractive interior, which should keep passengers happy whilst you enjoy the performance side.😉 Call me cynical but do you remember when Audi introduced Quattro to the punters, and BMW and their owners stated that it could not compete with the RWD experience of a BMW!😂 How times have changed.🤭

Hi 👋

Blue seems to be a real good color for this car. But comments: who would spend $90,000 and put dogs in the back? Launch control times are meaningless imho, not something you can utilize outside the drag strip. Flooring the throttle at a stop light is what is really meaningful. Which brings me to turbo lag, no mention of that but it is a really important subjective and objective finding. I am a previous BMW owner 4.4TT V8, but keep considering trading my current Jaguar V8S convertible for the M4 xdrive Convertible. Maybe to get the extra space. But the Jag, being supercharged is such a beast, sounds like a beast, and a great drive here in Florida in the winters. What to do, what to do.

Hmm…Peter, I was able to buy four new BMW’s between 1985 until 1994 and so I am aware of how they drive back then and since have enjoyed many others owned by my friend including his new M5C. However…I just cannot like this one..that dreadful front, that terrible sub gloss paint looks like a cheap body wrap, the dated body design…of course it drives well..But I would never want one and at £81,000…more like £95,000, it is a crazy price. It is a good car for somebody else! 😬😬😬😬 (I’m sorry..)…and good work if you like it..a replacement for Ruby..12 months old and £49,995 would be good!! 😃

I’m sure it drives well, however, this type of car is all about style & the styling lets it down. It could be so much better. We have a Autovogue 428i convertible & in my eyes the styling of this M4 is not as good.

Rag top every time!

The reason you Brits buy more convertibles than any other country is because for the one day a year that the sun might poke its head out of the clouds for 5 mins, you folks don't want to miss it and then spend the rest of the year being shamed by your relatives for having missed it. I'll let myself out now.

Lovely car, but I think I’d stick with the coupe, as I never like the look or feel of diving a 4 seat convertible over a two seat one, but I’d compromise a wee bit by getting it with the xdrive awd system rather than the normal rwd setup 👍🏻 Also, I actually prefer the new kidney grill on this updated version too, especially now as Škoda have “nicked” the previous models horizontal grill 🚙
