M4 GTS @ Canadian Interational Auto Show

redfox · 02-09-2016, 12:03 PM

I got s sneak previous of m4 gts during CIAS setup today. I thought I would share. I talked to the BMW rep from Munich. She said the car is not specs for any country specifically. Hence, could be pre production. Enjoy!

The pull straps are definitely there in your pics (see below). Note that the "pull straps" on the GTS are not for the door latch, but rather to pull the doors closed (as opposed to the 911GT3).

You are right. My mistake. Doh!

Me too! I'll be the guy that's licking the CF spoiler.

Ok, not really. I don't know how I feel about this car.

Blksnowflake · 02-09-2016, 01:19 PM

Awesome post. That hood is epic....the rest, not so much. This car might be fast and "collectable" but I just don't get it. It doesn't really look good to me, the added parts look tacked on and don't flow well.
For the money I'd rather a 911 GTS or similar, I just don't see the value. But as an enthusiast I'm sure I will want to walk up to it if I see one, so congrats to any future owners.

Hahahaha, I'm not fan of the car. I can see the technology and where they want to go with it, light weight track car etc... I'm not the unique target market they made this car for.

I will sit in it with my beer in hand to see how it feels tho

HVAC controls look like shit, why use those cheap looking pieces from EU spec 1 series?

Something I just noticed, the GTS seems to get the sliding cup holder cover from the F30/2 interior refresh, as opposed to the rest of the F8X series. I guess they could do it because the GTS goes without the little leather knee bolster.

Hmmm, I wonder if the production cars will come with the knee pad, this car has the highest grip and performance levels of any prev bmw, you'd think they would leave it no? That is a HARD Plastic console.
