A Look into the 2016 BMW M4 GTS

When you think of fast cars, BMW is name that might come to mind. There are a lot of fast vehicles on the road today, and the 2016 BMW M4 GTS is one that is highly anticipated. BMW is hoping that their new vehicle will be known for being both a super car, as well as a classic car. The M4 promises to be more than just a track ready model. BMW has developed a better model with an upgrade in tuned chassis, new interior, and an improved engine. Because of these amazing improvements, the 2016 M4 GTS will cost significantly more than the usual M4.

Prices for the 2016 model

We already know that prices for the M4 GTS will cost a bit more than usual, but just how much is this car going for? Prices start at $66,395, which is the starting price for a basic coupe version, with no add-ons. Adding additional items could cost you an extra $40,000, making the grand total over $100,000. Car enthusiasts with a need for speed and cash to spend will definitely find the price worth it.

There are several add on options available to the consumer. There are twelve unique color options available for the M4 GTS. The most expensive paint colors will cost about an additional $2000. Azurite black, champagne quartz, tanzanite blue, and smoked topaz are all metallic paint jobs that will leave the MR GTS looking as sleek as ever. The base model comes with a 6-speed manual transmission, but can be upgraded to a 7-speed M-double clutch for an additional $2,900. Other items can be added such as seat trim, type of wheels, and extra equipment. For example a parking assistant and Bluetooth wireless capabilities can all be added to the equipment package.

A look at the engine

You are paying for a fast car, so what kind of engine are you getting? The BMW M4 GTS has the same basic 3- liter, twin turbocharged inline 6 from the base M4. Because of new intake system and different exhaust, the vehicle will have 470 horsepower and 390 lb-ft torque. The 2016 model can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour, in just 3.5 seconds. Its max speed is set at 155 mph, making it one fast car. The performance level of this vehicle comes from an improved chassis, which weighs less than 1400 kg. This makes it one of the lightest in the series, allowing for a wider range of driving styles.

Interior and Exterior Changes

A few minor changes were made to both the interior and exterior of the M4 model. Both the steering wheel and seats were changed to a lighter version. Rear seats were replaced with a roll-bar, to further stiffen the car. New wheels were added to the exterior of the vehicle.  Remarkable new laser headlights were added to allow the use of high beam anywhere, replacing the old ones. OLED tail lights were replaced in order to use less power than previous models. Of course, there are additional upgrades you can make to the interior and exterior, which will not cost more than $3,000.

Release of the BMW M4 GTS

If you are looking to purchase the 2016 BMW MR GTS you should know that only 700 models are going to ship to the United States. The vehicle still does not have an official release date, but should be available in early 2016. Britain’s Anglesey Circuit is a motor racing circuit designed for motor sporting events. Just recently, in the month of October, visitors were able to get a chance to listen to the performance sound of the M4 GTS engine.

For those who have chosen fast cars as their hobby, the 2016 BMW M4 GTS is an amazing vehicle addition. With only 700 vehicles hitting the market in the United States, which cities will have the most of this vehicle? Our bet is Los Angeles, but we will have to wait until the 2016 BMW M4 GTS is officially released in the United States!
