Rory’s reviewing style is such a breath of fresh air. He’s quick and to the point, no unnecessary bs or advertisement like Mat Watson and no forced attempts at humour. But it’s clear that he’s not trying too hard to be funny or be the next Clarkson and the brief comedy that he does use works, he’s doing his own thing and it really shows. He’s one of if not THE best car reviewers out there (in my opinion).

Looks amazing!!!! The grill is something only people who can’t afford it have an opinion on, including me! I love it and hope I can buy it second hand in a few years. Need to buy a house first!
I actually think this cars front grill looks unreal in this black colour, especially from outside the car when it’s snaking between corners on the road. Looks like a beast 👌🏼🔥
honestly i think the grill looks good with the car in black. something modern yet really sporty and special. and the back of the car is a 10/10 i feel like. for me one of the best looking cars this year for sure, better than an RS5 or what I would imagine the next C63 to look like.
Plus Mat's kinda racist, he attacks anything from Korea like a mindless fool and makes up the dumbest excuses to justify his claims (watch his latest Tucson review if u dont know what Im taking about).
@@TD1237 bruh that’s not racism, Korean cars have a bad reputation for being cheap and the cars he’s reviewed follow that reputation. It’s not like he slams the cars just because the people behind them are Korean.
I disagree. I think the M3 looks better than the M4. People have been obsessing over the front grill, but I dont think the front is the issue. It's the side bland side profile and the uneventful rear end that doesn't match the aggressive front. I think the lines and angles of the M3 compliment the front end
My wife and I have owned 18 BMW’s, we’ve had 911’s, we’ve had several Mercedes, we owned the last Gen M4 Competition - lease was up and the new M’s weren’t out so we have a filler car, the M340 and C43 AMG. We’ve toured the Mercedes, BMW and Porsche factories and museums, we regularly attend BMW driving schools - I’m intentionally trying to insinuate that we have some cred for the statement I am about to make which is... your reviews sir are the best I have ever watched. Positively wonderful, exceptionally informative, just spectacular work - thank you!
The problem is not the grill but the position of it... The top part is too high and doesn’t align with the top part of the lights. This as the effect of be perceived not as a “mouth” but as 2 giant nostrils. What a shame, perfection was just few millimetres away
I would say a manual transmission is indicated for a car of 300 horsepower or less. You can have fun and not get in much trouble. With more powerful cars like this M4, a DCT is preferable. As to the automatic, we'll have to see how that works out in the longer term. I like the new M4 but I already have an M2 and for me, that is the better option.
I was incredibly critical of this car when I first saw it, I hated the redesign. This video was a major turning point for me in learning to love the new design. I pick up my M4 Comp Xdrive in July haha...
@@ftr911drvr in Uk spec the price difference is around £2000, and it becomes RWD at a button push. I had a real think about what I wanted to actually use the car for and the reality of it was I wanted a fast super coupe that I could occaisionally kick the back out of and do silly stuff in. The AWD gives freedom and safety in the uk where it rains 3/5 days and will still let me embrace my inner child for 5 minutes when I want to. That and I want to see some Audi Rs owners cry…
The chief designer of the car defended the grill saying that 1 in 5 people liked it. He said that 20% of people working at BMW liked the grill So basically, 80% of people working at BMW hated it,
That's the purpose of this massive grill... It's to stand out. If it looked like the normal actual 3-Series sedan, it would just be "the new M3" and that's it. It wouldn't be all over social media... It's all about the marketing strategy... 🤷🏻♂️
I'd pick the M4 for this gen, chose an M3 last time as it was better looking than the M4 that is reversed for this gen, great review as well you should never have been taken off TG.
I think they switched to the ZF gearbox because the previous M4 with DCT people were struggling when the gear changes were to snappy mid corner and even straight, with driving aids off.
As the owner of a Giulia Quadrifoglio I have petitioned BMW to change the "Lung" grille on the front of the M / 3 and M / 4 because as they will always be in my rear view mirror they are making me nauseous....They said they will act on this soon....
Looks ok in black. Glad that we have some nice wheel designs and good colour options with the exterior/interior. Let's just hope people don't spec black on black as usual.
@@KingThabiso The M3 is a legend.... the first sports sedan in the world was the E30 M3 .... without that car ..... sedans would be like Crown Victorias
The G8X M Cars have introduced the FIRST EVER color changing interior! That baby blue and yellow interior is going to become black and brown in ten years or so!
I love the grill now..I remember when ford focus put the rear lights on the top rear and everyone was like "omg" then it took off..designers have better forethought sometimes
I dont know why so many people are hating this car. I think its wonderful and a new spec of what Cars can look like. Love it... In fact it even has an row 6cyl/ keeping it real not like as the c63amg4cyl
Rory, fantastic review. Honest, balanced and fun. Is it time to trade in my F82. Prob not, ridiculous amount of money for top spec (my f82 is top spec and I love the looks - cant say that about the new generation but not seen one in person yet!). Its a shame you are not part of the Top Gear team. Do you own show mate, i'm sure you'd get the viewers.

I saw similar brand new one in Black color. I was bowled away by how absolutely beautiful it looked! I mean this coupe is seriously good looking.. and it is not even funny!
I was having a rough day till I saw this review with the dramatic music on the grille made me laugh so fucking hard!! 😂😂😂😂 much appreciated. Subscribed !
Just rewatched your M3 video after seeing this one. :) I actually like the looks of the saloon better ... I wish the M3 would’ve been in black as well ... just to make sure :)
8:00 I wouldnt rate transmissions taht way, it all depends on the combination with engine and tuning. The Guilia QV uses a ZF auto transmission and it pulverized the previous M3/M4 and had the best engine size/cv and cv/time lap in its class
I can now say that bmw's feels modern it began with 8 series and now with the m3 and m4 and it looks hella gorgeous cuz the last gen used to look like a car from the 2000 era
M3 or M4, which would you pick? ⬇️
Neither
M4 100%
M3 all day everyday
Both r amazing, pure drivers cars. Both the M3/M4 was, is and always will be the best drivers sedan. But gotta go with the M4 though. It's Astonishing in black
M4. For once America has the advantage and has an option of a manual
I think the car’s black colour makes the grille looks great. I like it now
yea blacks much more attractive
Honestly very true, the lighter colours make the grille pop out more.
It hides the grill, but any other color will look bad
Yeah that’s absolutely wonderful in black.
Fat chicks wear black to hide something......hmmmm.

Lol yeah the M3 and M4 look almost the same until you see them from the side.
"If you ever feel short of breath,, its because there's an M4 driving by keeping itself cool" hahahaha epic XD
XD XD
The grill is actually quite medium sized like the grill of a merc or audi is much bigger
The massive grill definitely works better with darker, more subtle colors. Otherwise it stands out too much and thats when it gets ugly.
Excellent M4 looks cool in black it's kinda hides that grill 😅
True! 😅
💯
@@Kev27RS True, finally someone who understand my love for the M4 G82 in black.

for me one of the best looking cars this year for sure, better than an RS5 or what I would imagine the next C63 to look like.
what you meant is: It looks good when you cant notice the hideous grille.
The grille looks great too, really aggressive and interesting
Personally I love the bold design. It makes other cars in comparison look boring and safe. Also, the most important thing is this car is FUN to drive!
Rory is Mat Watson without foolishness, without „banner on the right hand corner“ and WITH smart humour.

probably the best selling colour

Nice review...love the positive energy! Just bought an M4 Comp...get it next week..stoked!
I love it. I can’t afford one but I love it.
I don’t know y ppl don’t like the grill. Personally, I love it.

I do too, now that it's in black.
Even in white too
I love the colours, especially of the interior. This version looks fantastic, would pick it up in a heartbeat if I had the money.
Not gonna lie... I’m actually starting to like the new M4 after seeing this video

If you ever feel yourself feeling a bit short of breath it is probably because an M4 is driving by.

It looks better in black because it helps hide the massive grille a bit, but the monstrosity is still undeniably there at the end of the day.
They nailed it and they stand out I like it : ) It’s standing out and not just cookie cutter styling.
That's the purpose of this massive grill...
It's to stand out.
If it looked like the normal actual 3-Series sedan, it would just be "the new M3" and that's it.

I love the backlight design.Its beautiful.Perfect M4 and the greatest new M4 legacy.
I love my m4 and now then I see this one😮. I like everything about it and jealous about that front grill.
After looking at this, the previous gen M4 looks completely out dated. This looks way better now especially in black!
Agree 100%
In the beginning i was impressed with the grill but over time have grown to love it,very striking and aggressive
Ok I'd trade in the f82 for this. This in black looks sick
And only in black?
So an honest M4 review. Finally. This car looks so sick in black.
I'd pick the M4 for this gen, chose an M3 last time as it was better looking than the M4 that is reversed for this gen, great review as well you should never have been taken off TG.

Raz from RBR had a little "cut in"(don't know the english word for it) of the M3 in a matte grey. That looked absolutely stunning
