New BMW M4 v Old M4 v M440i - DRAG RACE

.............................................................

We know you bimmer boys have been waiting for this one… a proper BMW M4 showdown!!

Mat’s in the new M4 ‘Lite’, the M440i, and he’s going up against both the new & old BMW M4! The question is, does the all-new wide-grilled M4 have what it takes to snatch the win over the competition?

Well when you look at the stats on paper you’d think it’ll be in for an easy win! With a 3-litre straight-six twin-turbo under the bonnet, it can put down a mighty 510hp & 650Nm of torque. As for the old M4, you’ll find the same size engine up front, although it can 'only' produce 450hp & 550Nm.

Then we have the M440i, which may also being powered by a 3-litre straight-six, although it only has a single turbo. As a result, it can produce 374hp & 500Nm of torque. Its weight is almost identical to that of the new M4, although the older model comes in about 150kg less than them both.

However, the M440i has one key advantage compared to the M4s - it’s AWD! Will it make the difference? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Hi Mat here. Have you got over the new M4s grille yet?

[yashinlallchander]

That old M4 is a real thing of beauty.

[ProjectJamesify]

I thought I was getting used to the new look of the M4, but seeing it next to the gorgeous last generation, yikes never mind

[venza]

Look at the stance of the old M4, just a timeless piece of engineering. Jesus, it's gorgeous.

Can't believe we are already referring to the beautiful F82 M4 as "old" ...

[Auditography]

The previous M4 is such a proportionally beautiful car. I just can't get myself to like the front of the new one. And I tried hard.

[charizardforhire]

The "old" M4 is already a timeless beauty

[datemike]

The old M4 looks just amazing. Love it!

[genogeno]

That green beauty is the definition of "old but gold"

The old M4/M3 were gorgeous

[peter-paulkutschlojenga]

That old m4 is beautiful, I'm an Audi guy, but this car's proportions and lines are perfect.

[kwbalance]

Old M4 Looks absolutely stunning compared to the new ones. That thing will age VERY well.

1000 days later and you’re still waiting for a bicycle race between Mat and Yianni

[chichichichi]

Holy shit just realized how beautiful the old m4 is

[Domenico]

“You must see it in the flesh”
“It’s growing on me”
“It’s not that bad”
Then when you put that thing next to the old one you realize what a disaster they have made.

*i just bought a F82 M4 and i couldn't be happier with it*

[MrTrashman]

That old M4 looks so badass. I'm not a BMW fan but that model of M4 was a pure machine and really a beauty

[capricornus]

There’s a reason nostalgia exists- the old M4 is a perfect example of it..

3 things that are certain in life
1: death
2: taxes
3: people asking for a mat vs yianni running race on a carwow drag race video

That new m440i has a great price to performance ratio
