Last time we saw the upcoming
BMW M4 out testing, it was heavily clad with camouflage and decidedly homely looking (as most early development mules are). But in this latest set of photos, the
M3 coupe successor has started to come into its own skin, and we're seeing a shape more closely akin to that of
a rendering we brought you a few months back.
Unsurprisingly, the M4 coupe looks very similar to the
4 Series Concept that
BMW debuted at the
Detroit Auto Show earlier this year. And while non-M version of the 4er will likely look a bit more sedate, these spy shots clearly show an aggressive front fascia, large wheels and the usual quad-exhaust rounding out the rear end.
Naturally, the M3 sedan will launch before this M4 coupe (and convertible), and powertrain details are still unclear as of this writing. We understand that the current M3's naturally aspirated V8 will be axed in favor of some sort of turbocharged six-cylinder engine, and we've heard plenty of rumors as to
what, exactly, it might be, but we have yet to hear any official confirmation.
The
4 Series will launch later this year as a 2014 model, and we expect the M4 to follow suit about one year later as a 2015 model.
