I want a M4 so bad and your videos are greatly appreciated to give someone like myself a real idea on what it’s like to own this car
Glad the videos are helpful! Once you get your M4, you will absolutely love it, I have zero complaints 💪
same dude id buy one tomorrow if i wasnt hooked on drugs
I’m trying to cop one but at a good price / paying for what I get for. Any tips on what to get once vehicle has been purchased. Insurance tips , any clear bra for the paint etc. sick ass M4 bro
Don’t be desperate for something patience and hard work is what will get you things in life.
On the same page bro
Daily drove my 3 M4’s for over 6.5 years. The last one I had for 4.5 years and loved every second of them. (Riviera blue with all options ticked) You cant beat the M4 for overall usability and reliability. Buy one! You’ll love it.
Just found your channel after buying a 2020 M4 comp with 7k miles on (black with white interior) I'm absolutely in love with the car. Your content is awesome, have a sub
WOW! That is a great spec! I love that color combo, only 7k miles that’s basically a new car still! And thank you very much for subscribing I’m glad that you find the content enjoyable 😊🙌
In my opinion, I definitely think the m4 is not a bad daily driver. Sure, the regular 428i is a better car due to a better fuel economy, price, and a softer suspension for traffic and community point A to B. But for people who may not commute in heavy traffic, it is doable. Even with the new M4 when they introduced the driver assistance package (includes the traffic jam assist), it makes the car better for bumper to bumper traffic or in general the daily use. Great video!
Great explanation and good points! Thanks for watching man!
Nice review mate, the real concerns about daily driving these cars is maintenance, gas, tires, fluid changes, brake pads, discs, etc, that's where the practicality is, would have been nice for you to share the costs because its almost close to being impossible to drive these reasonably all the time..
for a daily drive M340i is great alernative.
You can’t afford it then bud just listed a whole essay worth of stuff
@@jasonjorge8512he is being realistic. its easy to buy one but other things comes like he listed with the car. That with any car general.
Think u have misunderstood how the DCT works man, u are supposed to tap the gas pedal so the car knows that u want to go forward. When it starts going u can step on the gas and it will be smooooooth.
Great video btw, greetings from a m4 user 😊👍
Yea I know the tap the pedal trick, I normally do that but occasionally while daily driving the car I’ll miss it and it will give me the jerk movement. Thanks for your comment! Always love talking to a fellow M4 owner, enjoy your car!
Great review! I have been dailying my M4 for the last 4 years. Love the customizability of it. I’ve tested the stop/start and get 27 mpg with it on and 25 mpg turned off. On long road trips the seats get slightly uncomfortable but that is subjective. I don’t have the 1st gear buck usually but have a hard downshift from 3rd to 2nd.
Thank you! And wow 4 years that’s awesome. It’s definitely a great daily driver I can’t wait to continue driving it for the next few years. Yea the seats can be uncomfortable after while but not too bad. Thanks for watching and consider subscribing since all I post is M4 videos 😊
it depends on your size for sure, i drove my M4 from LA to Denver and was totally comfortable the entire 2-day trip
Have you had to do any major repairs?
Are you the original owner? Curious if people are buying new or secondhand?
Hi, does the front spoiler lip acrid out a lot on driveways etc?
Thank you for the informative video! Im looking to get an m4. Im a HUGE JDM guy, but I've fallen in love the Euro Scene, and many of the M cars. The sheer tunability of the M4, and the sleek look, and the mobility has made me fall in love with the M4. Im hoping to pick one up later this year.
Ended up picking up an M4?
Great review of the M4, and what to look out for. Definitely a pain to be lowered with all the carbon sometimes but it's worth it lol
Thank you! And yea definitely a pain but it’s all part of the lowered life! Always worth it 🙌
My sister has daily driven her m4 for 2 yrs solid. Executive and comp package. She just bought a Mercedes to daily drive and make the m4 her summer car. Great review video.
Didn’t know that the stuttering in first gear is normal. Really helpful video. I have one as a daily for one month now and I thought indeed something was wrong with that gearbox, so now I feel more relaxed. Thanks guys! Marc, Belgium.
I personally still can't decide between F80 or F82. I think I'm fine with either as long as I find a cool color for it tbh.
I’m a coupe kind of guy! But either one is a great option
DCT first gear shake is normal in sport auto mode. If you use sport in manual mode start in 2nd gear. It even says in the manual the car can be driven starting in 2nd.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll try out 2nd gear
About to pick up an F82 in the next week! Im beyond excited and your vids have been super helpful in deciding whether its right for me. 23yr old M4 gang wya
20 year old gang… mineral grey w sakir orange interior getting delivered on the 12th😁
Update?
@@eternal2k4 i got it and I love it. So much fun to drive and for sure people always coming up to me to compliment the car
@@peaceout921 congrats 🎉
I have an M4 bought new two years ago and I still love it, brilliant car.
I don’t think i’ll ever get sick of mine, they really are great cars!
Best explanation ever
😊
What a car . Best engine BMW makes !!
The S55 is an amazing engine
2dr to the 🌚! The amount of love that the car gets its crazy haha. All around really good and fun car to drive on a daily basis!
Haha yes 2dr FTW💪 and yes it’s definitely crazy how much love it gets, it deserves it though because it’s such a good car
01:30 the car is cold af bro why you flor it 💀💀
Bc I wanted to destroy my engine
With the price of gas today you can buy a cheap economy car and the savings on gas vs this car would cover the payments on the economy car and you would preserve youre prized car for more relevant driving, like the twisty mountain roads on the weekends.
As an owner all I can say to this is you just don’t get it. These are BMW’s not Ferraris. They are meant for this and this is what we do. Drive….. I happily avg 11k/yr on my 2020 Heritage Edition.
I regularly get 22-26mpg every tank with all urban driving and I have a stage 2 DINAN kit. My best mileage so far was moving it from SoCal to Az, where I got 29mpg on the interstate. As a daily driver, I keep my foot out of it during normal driving, but very regularly hit full acceleration to 140+ on a certain back road, so I’m not by any means babying this car. The ponies need to be let loose to run! What wasn’t mentioned in the video was what a dream this car is to drive in the twisties.
Love the m4. It's a beautiful ride
Getting mine tomorrow, Smoked Topaz Metallic
Good points. Thanks for sharing, the M4 is such a damn good car😮💨
No worries! And yes without a doubt it is!!
Im looking to get a 2015 M4 and this was a helpful review! Thank you men!
Did you get it or no? If you did then how is it?
Bro absolutely love your video I’m getting a m4 very soon and your video was so helpful definitely going to subscribe.
Thank you bro! Happy to inspire they are amazing cars! Your subscription means a lot!
That rear sunshade. Wait till you hear the Bavsound. Improves the overall quality pretty well. All good points 👍🏻
Funny story I didn’t know I had that rear sunshade until a few months ago 🤣 but yes I’ve gotta take a listen on your new set up, I can’t imagine how good it sounds🔥 thanks man!
Wait until a month or so later when its fully broken in sounds even better.
Been watching your videos since you left your job and I haven’t been disappointed since. I’m waiting to get mine later this year ! The time is counting down and I can’t wait🙏🏼currently drive a ‘15 Lexus IS350 but an M4 would be a beauty to drive
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING! I always love to hear that. And that’s super exciting, it’s the best when you can start counting down to the day of getting the car. The IS350 is a nice car, anything Lexus Is well built. But yes just wait until you own an M4, you’ll be blown away by how great it is 🤯
Awesome video probably the best one on TH-cam on daily driving M4 🙂 you got me from very interested to extremely interested in getting an m4 😍🥰
Love that! Stay tuned i’ve got more M4 videos coming soon 😉
still living my dream to own Benz ama BMW 🤟🏽
I wouldn't want a car that I couldn't daily drive even a full straight pipe full bolt on and tuned. Makes the drive even more fun.
Couldn’t agree more!
You might get 19 mpg if you’re very very light on the car, normal driving is 15mpg and around 6-9 when flooring it
Great video, I am looking for a M4 and this is helping me a lot. I also love the spec!🙌🏻
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! Good luck on your search!
I think you meant to say “the M4 is almost as good as American muscle haha” 😂 nah seriously though, it’s also how you drive the car, and that thing is lowkey really spacious!! 🗣
Haha idkkkkk about that 🤔😂 but yes exactly!
The whole point of these cars is to be do it all daily driver cars. If you want a dedicated sports car you go for a Porsche or something similar.
To help with first gear stutter. Keep giving small revs like a manual 👍🏽
Just got one in this colour
Congrats!
Those motors are pretty reliable if well maintained. Problem is people do not take care of them.
I really want one of these, I'd probably already be in one if the whole used car market/interest rate situation wasn't so jacked up. Are you still daily driving it??
Use the auto headlight function... Definitely
You gotta tap the gas pedal before you take off on sport + and the car won’t jerk. I’m a pro driving on sport + now .
Yes that’s very true. It’s almost like driving with a clutch pedal, you have to tap the gas and get it rolling before flooring it!
Just found a 2015 with 34,000 miles listed for $34,500. Should i jump on it? How much did you pay?
Yes! that’s a steal!
MY DREAM CAR
It’s the best!
love this song!
Just clicked this vid because I’m thinking about getting an m4. See your filming at dicks sporting goods park!! I always go there and do donuts in the snow in my subi😅
Do you drive it in the winter if you do can you make a video about how it is in the winter
literal dream cad
It’s the best!
Thank you for sharing this
the drift clip was gold😂
Never really seen forged carbon on a car yet, that looks good
Thank you! I thought i would be a unique touch
Love that color!!
It’s the best color for the F8X platform!
@@AutomotiveTherapyyes it is! I hope to find one the same color. Awesome camera work too btw! Subbed
Would you buy a 2015 with 37k miles everything done for 46k private party? Competition package upgrade? Is that a decent deal for everything done through SSR? Same color too and it’s all done crank hub was just done it’s under mileage and I work from home don’t drive much? It’s a coupe and all upgraded carbon inside and out. Please help I need your opinion on buy or fly! Thanks brotha!

Sounds like a great deal to me man!
437’s on the F80 should never be replaced with aftermarkets or other oem styles. It doesn’t make any sense why those are so perfect. But that’s just my opinion 🤷🏽♂️
I agree with you! Anyone that dislikes these wheels need to get their eyes checked
This is the dumbest thing I’ve read about these cars, just because the wheels look good there are MANY MANY aftermarket options that look better, also why would I wanna look JUST LIKE every other M on the road with the same wheels same color same stock height.
@@Hold.My.Tacoss aftermarket wheels are a game changer on the F8X platform. But i never understood the dislike on the 437m wheels. Either way I ended up selling my 437ms for some Rotiform wheels and i don’t regret it at all
@Jay 10k .. peace. And take it easy.
@AUTOMOTIVE THERAPY .. this is all a matter of subjectiveness. So to even respond to such ignorance, is a waste of time. On to better things though, the rotiforms are clean bro 💪🏾 Keep up the good artwork.
Great video bro 💯 subbed
Thank you! 😊
I WANNA BUY THIS GODDAMN RACING CAR
When I upgrade, idk what color I want, white looks good, but so does blue.
All colors look amazing on these cars, you can’t pick a wrong one!
The best daily!!!!! That intro was sick man 🔥
Without a doubt! And thank you bro🙌
Re. the move-off jerkiness, there's a vid on TH-cam where they said to jab the pedal once to engage a low speed / move-off mode. Have you ever heard of or tried this?
M4’s are superior BMW #w
They are pretty great!
i am loving that ride height and spacers spec God Bless
really great video! Btw, what year is your M4? 2018?
Thank you! It was a 2016
I own a few BMW M4's and I drive them everyday...Forza Horizon counts right??
Hahaha best comment👏
I don't know that back seat looks tighter than I want it to be, but I like the car.
I’ve been in all the competitors coupes and the M4 takes the win with having the most space, it really does feel spacious and open when you sit back there. But yes the M4 is a great car🙌
@@AutomotiveTherapy great vid and info. I have 2 older kids and Im looking at m3's. I love my s4 but I have always wanted to try an M3. Also I have to have a manual gearbox. I won't go for an Auto(even if they are quicker) just not as fun to me.
Awesome video my man! Looking to connect with other BMW content creators! Keep cranking the content out!
Thank you man! And yes it’s always good to connect with like minded people! I’ll subscribe to your channel💪
Also... try the xhp flash tool, if you haven’t already.
@AUTOMOTIVE THERAPY .. “stop-go” should help you out with the first gear annoyance.
Thanks for the tips 🙌
For some reason idk what car should I get, it’s hard to decide of witch car is good for me, m4 or the new 2021 m4. But your m4 is sick.
Either is a great option! But this generation M4 is the best bang for the buck. And has so much potential in so many ways
@@AutomotiveTherapy I agree bro, by the way.. keep grinding
Thanks bro🙌
Loved the intro to this video. Bro I would totally daily drive an M4 if I had one 😭
I dont recommend it personally. I have one and the upkeep is a little pricey. Its not crazy but it can be if you dont have self control. On top of it youre racking up miles on a very nice car its not worth driving everyday. Keep it nice
@@craftgarrett1 I agree to this as well. If something were to go wrong (which increases if you daily drive it) than it can be pretty pricey. I’m okay with putting miles on it since I honestly don’t think I’ll ever sell this car, or at least not anytime soon, so I want to enjoy it as much as I can. I’ve seen M4’s with over 100k miles still driving strong so that’s a sign of comfort to me. It’s hard because I want to drive it all the time, eventually I’ll be getting a daily driver so that my M4 can stay home on some trips and I need an AWD car for the Colorado snow season
@@AutomotiveTherapy im in the same boat i cant drive it in the winter anyways. Id just rather keep the miles as low as possible. Just personal preference. Its also for insurance reasons too
Oh gotcha! Yea I totally get it man 👍
@@craftgarrett1 LOL "racking up miles". I'm getting one of these next year and my goal will be to rack up as many miles as possible, as fast as possible. USE the damn thing. Life is short.
“I got a lot of leg room, it’s so comfortable” shows a clip of him with his knees to his side with no leg room 😂😂I started dying
Lol
For a woman no leg room if you know what I mean 😏
@@XPROGOLD 💀💀💀
@@AutomotiveTherapy little toxic sorry 🫣
Just have fun
Great video
Thank you!
Nice breakdown. It’s really shocking how much space back passengers have lol
Thank you! And yes I was too when I bought the car! I never feel bad putting people in the backseat because of how spacious it is!
You’re my favorite BMW Influencer
That means a lot! Thank you 🤩
Where was this video shot ? The scenery is nice.
Just outside of Downtown Denver!
I see the C2 rower! haha
Apologies if I missed it but where did you get all the forged carbon? I'm looking at getting one of these hopefully in a year and I'd love to replace all the exterior trim with forged carbon
Check the link in the video description 😊
Trying to decide between a 2018 M4 competition or a new MK5 Supra. Not really a fan of the old analog guages on the M4, but like the extra space. What kind of engine mods / bolt-ons can be done without upgrading engine internals?
What’d you pick
I am looking into 2015-2016 M4's. Is there a certain mileage you would worry about passing or does it really depend on how it was treated? I'm finding between 55 and 90k miles right now.
If you’re getting one with higher miles I would look for one that’s fully stock and in great shape, also one that has tons of maintenance records. I know several people that have gone over 150k miles and the car still runs great with no major issues. Don’t be afraid of higher miles with these cars. They are built like tanks
Just bought a 2015 m4 f83 with 28k miles, 1 owner, for an absolute steal. Hard top with red interior. About to upgrade the iDrive to carplay. Loving every moment of it!
@@holyship9914 curious from where and how much and also specs of the car.
@@eternal2k4 $39k in Miami, didn't have the sticker and doesn't have carbon fiber trim, but it did come with the upgraded sound and tech package and premium wheels. Now that it has carplay it has everything I wanted, including such low miles it's practically new.
@@holyship9914wow 39k what a Steal for that low of miles
How’s the suspension in the winter? Is it a lot stiffer with the roads being hard
Car definitely feels stiff the first few minutes of driving it in the winter. Once it’s warmed up it drives just like it does in the summer
Are bmws expensive to maintain, been looking at this x4 but nervous as soon as I drive of the lot I get problems after problems
Not really. They are easy cars as long as maintenance is done
What would you recommend between M5 f10 and this M4? I’m still undecided, I like the v8 but I like the shape of m4 and good revs from everyone. Very hard decision to take.
M4! It drives more like a sports car!
Hey bro wym crane cup? I have an M4 tuned rn but I’ve never heard about that thing you talked about. I also daily drive it so I’m concerned know
Crankhub is a common failure for these engines, but it really doesn’t happen on stock cars, mainly on modified cars
Any Suggestions regarding tyres which works also in rain very good?
Yes! I love the Pirelli P Zero Max Performance tires. Great dry and wet traction
@@AutomotiveTherapy thanks!! Appreciate your fast response. Cheers from Hamburg
What size rear tires are you running? They look fatter than stock
285/40/19
With your suspension and wheels set up do you get any rubbing?
No rubbing! Only on a big bump
How much did u pay for the car? Did you buy it new or used?
Here’s a video I made breaking down all the costs: th-cam.com/video/NodpQm4uoqA/w-d-xo.html
I was so mad, this car doesnt feel right, doesnt feel M division at all, I swaped from e60 m5 to m4 f82, m4 is just bad... to say the lest
bruh
Where do you usually park this vehicle?
Garage
@@AutomotiveTherapy Do you happen to have the exact geographical coordinates of said garage?
Additionally, I would also love to know your work schedule. So what days & time you're away for work?
Asking for a friend.
@@juice7661 I hope your friend has a passport ready 🗺️
@@juice7661 Top floor parking garage at this address: 1 Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Blvd - Downtown Dubai - Dubai - United Arab Emirates
@@AutomotiveTherapy I could've sworn I saw an identical M4 in Colorado the other day but the tracker I planted on it must've malfunctioned😭
Would you recommend the convertible version but does the convertible look off when its roof up??
Not a fan of the verts. I’ll take the coupe with a carbon roof any day. It’s also heavier if you get the vert
How tall are you?
Im wondering how the seat room behind me will be, I'm only 5'8-5'9
I’m 6”2
is it easy getting in and out of the car? i have a corvette and it's a pain in the ass sometimes
It’s easy, I had no troubles, corvettes are definitely tighter than M4’s
Wait wait wait ..hold up.
..within the couple of months of you getting the car you threw an additional 10k miles on it!?
I drove the car across the country when I bought it! So the miles added up pretty quick
After owning all the unreliable bmws such as the m5s I’m ready for a reliable one in the m4 😂
Same here, i’ve owned many unreliable bmws and let me tell you this M4 is a soooo much better than all my previous ones
@@AutomotiveTherapy I feel you bro, a week later I got a 2018 m4c this thing is scary fast. Not used to a light car. M5 was always heavy so it kind of felt more stable. This thing is a rocket. I already did a stage 1 tune yesterday 😂
@@AutomotiveTherapy you encounter any issues?
Looking at picking up a used m4 soon, found a killer deal with an awesome record
Manual or DCT?
DCT
how much was it to do the crank hub?
$3,000 parts and labor
will i need to worry about the crank hub if i only make a ecu stage one?
You’ll be fine but be careful with downshifting at high speeds in high rpm’s
@@AutomotiveTherapy yeah i got my f82 m4 fianlly. its a nice car, i love it .
will you make a video like maybe any tricks ? or anything i need to notice?
Would you recommend a 440i 2019? Also looking at a 2016 m4 or 2018..does it matter between the two?
440’s are great but the M4 is a true M car and gives you the best overall experience when driving. As far as what years, it doesn’t matter that much, I think it’s worth saving the money and getting a pre lci but the 2018’s do look amazing
Pulled the trigger amd got a 2019 M4 ..full house shadow trim..now for spacers.
How much was your crankhub with install?
$3,000 for parts and labor
Does the m4 have lane departure warning that keep you in your lane?
Yes it did
what year is yours?
2016
Lmao bro there was not legroom in the back haha
What! I had atleast .5cm of space 😉
I don't like you because of your age, but great video I was wondering about the back seat
Strange thing to say, but glad you find the video helpful. I am 24 now but was 21 during this video
@@AutomotiveTherapydon't take it personal debating on a 2025 M4 comp x drive so this helped was debating on a x4 or x5 but this looks like a fun single guy car which I am
