BMW M4 Coupe Concept rendered

Posted 24th January, 2013 in BMW | Leave a comment

We’ve seen a few renderings of the forthcoming BMW M4 Coupe Concept, some OK, some looking like they’ve been done by a moronic child with an Etch A Sketch. But these are well worth sharing.

Using the recently revealed 4 Series Concept as a base, Bimmerpost member E92Alpine328i has added the aggressive front fascia, carbon fibre roof section and rear bumper from the M6 Coupe, an M3-inspired hood bulge and 1M side gills. The wheel arches have been flared and the mirrors and side skirts have also been tweaked, while those striking five-spoke alloy wheels are lifted from the M6 Gran Coupe.

BMW is likely to drop the V8 engine currently powering the M3, with propulsion expected to come from a twin-turbocharged straight-six (developing around 331 kW/444 hp), which will be mated to either a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission or optional six-speed manual.
