Having the roof chopped off will always be a compromise, but has it ruined the M4?

Considering how much flak the M4 has taken for its looks (mainly for the grille) I think the M4 convertible looks lovely. There, I said it!

I think anyone looking at a convertible is pretty much aware of these compromises. For someone who goes for a convertible and wants something fast I bet it works out.

I recently bought my first ever convertible, albeit different from this as it’s a Porsche 718 Boxster. Honestly it just gives me something a hard top could never do, no matter how busy or bad a week I’ve had, take the Boxster out for a roof down blast and it just clears my head and cheers me up.

Beautiful machine, I love that ZF gearbox, it nearly has double clutch performance but without the jerkyness of a double clutch on city driving…

Is it me or does this look amazing?! This looks really good!

Joe, it does have a wind deflector and you should have put it up. It really works well.

Every car reviewer in a convertible talks about scuttle shake, added weight n lower rigidity in comparison to the coupe sister. That’s new or even the point for us existing convertible drivers. We accept these compromises for the open air sensation, added aural pleasure and looks. And no one living in a place with 3.75 days of good weather should even try to review a convertible! So rather than always slamming a convertible vs it’s coupe sister, I would like a reviewer to compare it with other convertibles, whether same make and by other manufacturers . Personally I’d subscribe to a reviewer who only tests convertibles and nothing else…especially if he/she lives in Nice, Dubai or Miami

In that colour combination, that car looks stunning!

I like that, love a contrasty interior - James Bond on the outside, Austin Powers on the inside! 😎🤩

Around 7:50 he’s talking about it not having a wind deflector, but it does! It gets stowed in between the rear seat and trunk! If you pop it in, it does a lot to keep heat In and stop the buffer sound just saying

People who have an issue with convertibles fall into 2 brackets

Afraid people will think they're gay (because they're homophobic or in the closet)

Think they're Lewis Hamilton when they're driving to the shops. Even funnier when they moan about weight but look like Fat Joe or Big Pun.

If you're a track addict, fine, I get it. For general road use a convertible is so much fun.

Having spent a week with the standard 420i convertible, with the roof up it really did have good sound insulation in the cabin. It was so much better than I expected so in my eyes the M4 convertible can only be good.

Going though some of those bends it looked almost speeded up, bonkers how planted this cars are now, makes you wonder how it could be inproved

Wow! I didn’t notice the grill! Great looking car. Perfect for the Pacific Coast Highway. Detailed info on driveability, thanx!

Really impressive how you matched the Oakley motif on your top with the seats 🤣

There's something quite hilarious about seeing someone driving around with the top down, whilst wearing a head warming thermal hat! Great vid!

Love this review Joe. At 7:50 you mentioned that the M4 does not have a wind deflector. Recently got the M440i convertible and it has a wind deflector stored behind the rear seat. It folds open and slots into the holes beside the rear passenger seats and it works really well. I would expect the M4 to have the same wind deflector 😊
