BMW M4 Rental
The BMW M4 shares the M3's engine and chassis in a two-door coupe body with shorter back seats.
Overview
The BMW M4 shares the M3's twin turbo inline six and chassis but trades four doors for a two door coupe body with a lower roofline and a back seat sized for two adults on a short trip. Renters pick the M4 over the M3 when the shape matters as much as the speed, for birthdays, photoshoots and weekends built around the drive itself.
How It Drives
Full throttle brings the same hard pull from about 2,500 rpm to a 7,200 rpm redline, and the coupe's lighter nose makes the quick steering feel sharper than the sedan's. The ride stays firm in every mode, which suits a weekend built around the drive rather than the passengers.
Who Rents It
The BMW M4 is booked for occasions where the shape is the point, birthdays, photoshoots, and weekends built around the drive itself rather than getting somewhere with passengers. Couples who do not need a back seat choose it over the M3 for the lower, sleeker silhouette. It also suits a renter who wants the M3's engine and chassis but finds the sedan body too ordinary looking for the occasion. The limited rear drive, two seat trim at the top of the range is booked by a driver who wants the sharpest version of the car, with its most aggressive settings meant for a closed course rather than a public road.
Trim Breakdown
The BMW M4 range runs from a rear-drive manual coupe up to two 543 hp specials, with an all-wheel-drive convertible sitting in the middle. We run the Competition coupe and the CSL.
M4
The BMW M4 in base form makes 473 hp, sends it to the rear wheels through a 6-speed manual, and has no automatic option at all. It uses softer dampers and standard sport seats rather than the carbon buckets found higher up the range. We do not run it. It is the purist grade and the rarest M4 on the road in this market.
M4 Competition
The BMW M4 Competition makes 503 hp, drives the rear wheels through an 8-speed automatic, and is the volume car in our fleet. A renter gets a wide supportive seat, a firm but livable ride, and a back seat that works for a short trip with a friend. The brake pedal carries its own Comfort and Sport settings, which matters in stop and go traffic.
M4 Competition xDrive
The BMW M4 Competition xDrive adds all-wheel drive and 20 hp for 523 hp total, and it is the only way BMW sells the M4 Convertible. Off the line it is quicker than the rear-drive coupe, and it keeps a mode that disconnects the front axle entirely. The folding soft top adds weight and eats trunk space. We do not run either body.
M4 CS
The BMW M4 CS makes 543 hp, runs all-wheel drive, and keeps its rear seats, which makes it the usable one of the two hardcore M4s. It sits between the Competition and the CSL on damper tune and weight, with carbon bucket seats and a titanium exhaust as standard equipment. We do not run it.
M4 CSL
The BMW M4 CSL also makes 543 hp but drives the rear wheels only, deletes the rear seats entirely and strips around 240 pounds out of the car. We run it. A renter notices the fixed-back carbon seats first, then the missing sound insulation. It suits a short focused drive rather than a road trip with luggage.
