Times are below. From the article:
“ BMW edges much closer to perfecting the road formula with its newest M4, sampled here with all-wheel drive and a Competition badge glued to its trunk. You have to respect the M4’s all-out pace, its massive mechanical grip at all four corners (enough to match any of the supercars on this test), and its 3.0-liter twin-turbo six that punches out 503 horses but feels far closer to 600. The M4 never feels outclassed on a backroad, even with supercars filling its mirrors.
BMW produced a faster and more luxurious M4 than the last. It sharpened the coupe’s steering, improved front-end grip, and then wrapped that around an interior that feels truly special. On paper it’s a triumph. But much of the character from older M3s is still missing—the tactility, focus, and charisma. BMW can find its way back; the M2 CS is proof of that. But this fresh-from-the-womb M4 has room to improve.”
