First Ever Passenger ride in M4 GTS
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com The prize was a lap on the legendary Nurburgring Nordschleife (North Loop) in a BMW M4 GTS with BMW M engineer Joerg Weidinger Sadly the set date for this I could not attend. Instead I was offered to take part in the BMW M Track Days 2016 in Barcelona at the Circuit De Catalunya, with the new BMW M2. Had a fantastic time with the BMW M Division who were excellent company. I got to take an exclusive passenger ride in the M4 GTS around the Circuit de Catalunya with Claudia Hurtgen at the wheel. Wow. Incredible. I was lost for words this M4 GTS is so fast best M car car ever! Enjoy the videos & pics M4 exhaust sound M5 Competition Package M3 and M4 entering pits after laps around circuit (comp package?) M3 and M4 coming down the straight, I'm in the light blue M3 M3 and M4 Leaving Pits Last edited by e92liv; 04-16-2016 at 12:05 PM.. |

Wow, the car sounds REALLY good! That seemed like a hell of an awesome time, congrats!
I know it won't be anything like the GTS, but I'm really looking forward to my F80 CP now

Too bad you couldn't make it to the Ring, what an epic ride that would've been but at least the Barcelona event sounded like a good runner up, thanks for sharing! Did you see all the press there testing the cars?

This does not seem to be a Competition Package M4, but rather a standard M4 with M-Performance parts including the MPE.

Great prize, very jealous and huge congrats!
Now...to business...I have an F80 CP on order, was that M4 a stock CP car? It sounded incredible....but the tips looked silver which made me think CP+MPE...?

Wow great prize , as said above those tail pipes on M4 with wing look like MPE? I never heard the burbles from the exhaust like CP unless it was just in sport mode , as a member said his CP with MPE only burbles on sport + mainly , still whatever sounds fantastic , just wonder if same alterations as on safety cars though would be good to find as I want that sound
Thanks again for posting this up |
