    MMMmmm... Foooourrrr....

    Had the joy of riding in my friend's new toy Saturday and taking some pics in San Francisco. Thought I would share this beauty.

    You know... considering almost everyone will want a black interior, this is a rather nice change. I think it keeps the interior bright and airy, and he keeps his cars very clean so it shouldn't be an issue.

    Sorry, I didn't want to completely overshadow the measly M4... We were cowering in fear when it rolled in, definitely built Ford tough.

    Agreed. Clearly he's never seen how the e36 Dove grey ages.
    Love the new M4s, wish they were a little smaller, but I get thats the way of the car these days. How was riding in it? Ridiculously fast?

    Stupid fast. after everything breaks in a bit and he does the Dinan ECU fix, he'll be sitting on over 500hp and almost equal torque. The ride is amazing too, goes from comfort to race with the push of a button, thanks to the EDC system.

    The car snaps necks inside and out.

    And dove just needs a proper owner, that's all.

    The M4 is gorgeous, the interior is very nice and a great color imho. Black is overdone and just so boring. Good to see one with a more unique color combo... I always figured if I bought a new BMW I'd buy the weirdest color combo possible. Those "unicorn" color combos are always worth the most long-term. Thanks for the pictures!

    PS in reference to above it looks like that E36 has had a leatherique treatment, based on the glossiness of the leather on the driver's bolster.

    Sure are a lot of bumps and protrusions when photographed in detail. But taken as a whole, it all works almost flawlessly.

    Really nice car, I like the direction BMW is going again.

    I agree that dove (although I believe the name is now silverstone) grey interior can look nice when well taken care of and black is over played but I would of chosen mineral gray with sakhir orange interior. Just my personal taste but either way it's a beautiful car. Such an upgrade from the e9X

    Although I think the 4 looks great by modern BMW standards, I'll never like them, and never buy one. Speed means nothing when an M42 powered E30 is more fun to chuck around.

    And yes, I've driven one. I like my E36 better to drive. Flame on.

    Great pictures but the car is meh. Saw one in person finally (had seen several M3s) and wasn't impressed. It's huge and seems more like a successor to the previous gen M6. The technology and power is great, but not what I want. Even my e92 feels too big. Can't wait to see BMW reveal the M2.
