▀▄ eas | G84 M4 Competition xDrive Pickup “M4Maloo” with AST Lowering Springs

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Wanted to share some photos of a unique M4 Competition xDrive Pickup project by Dinmann in a very short timespan (~3 weeks) in time for SEMA. Starting as a fresh from the dealer G82 M4, the transformation was made as a rolling showcase for Dinmann's carbon fiber line as well as getting others in the industry involved on the build.

Nicknamed “M4Maloo” (and tongue in cheek referred to as the G84) the M4 pickup was brought over to our facility to have a set of AST springs installed and keep the OEM feel while closing the ride height gap of about 30mm over stock. Mods are being kept at a minimum, as not to compete with the the pickup/ute conversion. Wheels are M Performance 963M in Gunmetal Grey.

Love it or hate it, M4Maloo is getting a lot of attention by both purists and those deep in the modding scene. Enjoy!

Factory Height/Stock Suspension

AST Springs, new 30mm lowered height

Stunned, speechless, gobsmacked

Below is the original Maloo and if you were fortunate enough to own one from new, you will have potentially made 1200% on your investment over 5 years - they now, allegedly, sell for over $1.2m

This is absurd and I love it

alphawawa · 12-05-2022, 05:25 PM

I actually....love the way this looks.

The world is upside down. Thanks for sharing this crazy/fun looking thing.

Not my thing.

At all.

Love the creativity, the skill, and the risk.

Hate the final product. Would never look back in a parking lot unless it's on fire.

Speechless. Unbelievable…In the worst way possible. Lol.

Takes a lot for a photo of a car to trigger a gag reflex, but these photos managed to.

April fools photos I hope.

They do not sell for $1.2m...lol - some dreamer HSV owners may put them up for ridiculous prices but in general are $60-80k cars

No wood, and not even the defacto diamond-plate.
