BMW第一代M4流出部份資料。新M4會用上好多 Carbon fiber 部件，包括裙腳，車頂，死氣喉等等。引擎方面應該回歸直六加 turbo。大約有450 匹或以上。價錢方面大約六萬美金（美國價）。
2014 春天上市，真係想快啲出。
After four generations of the two-door BMW M3, it is time to say goodbye: The moniker will henceforth be reserved for the BMW's compact four-door sports sedan. The two-door M3—keep in mind that this is what started the cult 28 years ago—is history. But don't fret, those are just words. Say hello to the Concept M4 Coupe, the high-performance variant based on BMW's new 4-series. Yes, four, it’s what the company now calls the coupe version of the 3-series. Get over it.
While we await the final product, the Concept M4 Coupe—which makes its debut at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance—provides a very good indication of what the production car will look like. In fact, we would be shocked if that car was styled any different from this concept. Even the Aurum Dust hue looks right for the part, evoking memories of the E46 M3's Phoenix Yellow.
The exterior of the Concept M4 is pleasantly distinguished from the standard 4-series. The front fascia is an aggressive evolution of former M GmbH chief designer Ulf Weidhase's previous-generation jet-engine look. The Air Curtain and Air Breather elements—more commonly referred to as fender vents—that are merely hinted at in pedestrian-guise 3- and 4-series, have grown to an impressive stature. This is even more impressive when the M4 is viewed in profile, as the character line extending from this element flows upward into the shoulder line. These lines work very nicely with the unique trunklid, featuring a large and fully integrated spoiler.
In true M style, the Concept M4 incorporates visible carbon-fiber components such as the front splitter, the rear diffuser, and the entire roof—which actually features M-specific blue, purple, and red stripes. Even the four exhaust pipes are covered in the lightweight weave, raising a few eyebrows as the trademark quad outlets traditionally have been finished in bare metal.
A trend within M started by the current-gen M5 and M6, the Concept M4’s grille features double-barred vertical slats. This is supposed to create a visual connection to the 20-inch twin-spoke aluminum wheels, which roll on Michelin rubber. The same grille trend also extends itself to model-specific badging, which, in this case, reads “M4”.
We haven’t been permitted to peek into the interior just yet, but we fully expect a sporty evolution of the lesser 4-series’ insides with a small three-spoke steering wheel, M-specific instrumentation, and tight sports seats.
BMW isn’t ready to divulge suspension and powertrain details as yet, but our sources tell us that the production-spec M4 will be powered by a heavily upgraded variation of the 435i’s turbocharged N55 3.0-liter straight-six, which could make up to 450 horsepower. This engine likely will be fitted with two turbochargers, and the power will be channeled exclusively to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. We expect to see a lofty redline in the proximity of 7000 rpm. The wide track and race-inspired tuning of the M4 will turn it into a veritable street racer, but purists will need to get over the thought of this being the first M-badged BMW to feature electromechanical power steering, because we hear that will be the case.
A production-spec M4 should come to market in early 2014 at a sticker price slightly higher than $60,000. Rest assured that a convertible variant won’t be too far behind. And if the name still bothers some, despite the menacing look the Concept M4 Coupe is hinting at, well, there’s always the option of a four-door M3. |
