Even before the new M4 and revealed, we have the first indications for a more extreme variant-all to tackle.

Indeed, it is no surprise that BMW is on the basis of the new M3 & M4 hotter, more circuitgeoriënteerde versions will build. Cars such as the now ten-year-old M3 CSL (Coupe Sport Leichtbau) or something newer; the to 150 copies limited M3 GTS. Piece for piece M-parties on wheels.

BMW want this to repeat, and to do so in 2016 as the brand’s 100 years. The Australian Motoring, which yesterday scoopte with the M5 xDrive, has a number of details to know, to find out about this feestneuseditie of the M4. They come.

• The rear seat disappears
• The chairs will be replaced by pieces of carbon fiber fabric
• Only available with manual gearbox (6 gears)
• Weight of less than 1400kg (regular M4 = 1500 kg (about)
• Aluminium doors
• The hood and side shields of carbon fiber
• More power from the twin-turbo six-cylinder

The sources at BMW M that this on Motoring reveals implies, however, a blow to the arm. Do not expect any extremities such as with the CSL, since the regular M4 is pretty far in terms of weight reduction. So it’s a like the E92 M3 GTS.

“It’s difficult for a CSL today. We have already major steps that we would have tasks, like thinner glass and lighter seats and lighter wheels and less sound deadening. We’ve already done all of that.”
