Used Car of the Day: 2015 BMW M4 Coupe

by Tim Healey

Published: February 28th, 2023

Today's used car of the day is a six-speed manual BMW that comes at a dear price.

Forty-five large gets you into this 2015 BMW M4 coupe -- if you want it in stock form. If you want it as-is, the seller wants $50K. Although the car isn't exactly stock, the modifications aren't mechanical -- they are in terms of audio and cosmetic additions.

The seller says the car has never been tracked and has only suffered a small amount of cosmetic damage that has been repaired.

There's a long list of M bits, and the mileage is around 38K.

Take a look here if this sort of thing interests you.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Not really that into late-model M3s/M4s. Whereas prior M3s are defined in part by unique engines that give them a unique character apart from other 3 series at any speed, even Bimmerphiles admit that the S58 isn't superior to the B58 driven with anything less than go-to-jail intent. I'd be okay with that if the rest of the car were compelling, but the F3x generation seems to be a case of BMW trying to restore that missing differentiation (and the connectedness of the 3 series altogether) through overly firm chassis tuning that really only works on the track.

Hard pass for me. It just doesn't seem to be the kind of wide-spectrum fun past M3s could be. I'd just get an E9x 335i or M3 six-speed and earmark the difference for upkeep.

Mineral Grey is actually a great colour! Except in my M3 it is paired with the Sakhir Orange interior and the combo is money. You want a later F8x because it has many little driveability and driving feel improvements, better iDrive, and the possibility of the Competition package. Overall the F8x is very robust but consumables are costly and pretty soon various leaks will start to crop up. I've had mine for 5 years and 70,000 glorious km and I have really fallen in love with this car.

Jalop1991 Our MaintenanceCosts has been a smug know-it-all.
MaintenanceCosts If I were shopping in this segment it would be for one of two reasons, each of which would drive a specific answer.Door 1: I all of a sudden have both a megacommute and a big salary cut and need to absolutely minimize TCO. Answer: base Corolla Hybrid. (Although in this scenario the cheapest thing would probably be to keep our already-paid-for Bolt and somehow live with one car.)Door 2: I need to use my toy car to commute, because we move somewhere where I can't do it on the bike, and don't want to rely on an old BMW every morning or pay the ensuing maintenance costs™. Answer: Civic Si. (Although if this scenario really happened to me it would probably be an up-trimmed Civic Si, aka a base manual Acura Integra.)
El scotto Mobile homes are built using a great deal of industrial grade glues. As a former trailer-lord I know they can out gas for years. Mobile homes and leased Kias/Sentras may be responsible for some of the responses in here.
El scotto Bah to all the worrywarts. A perfect used car for a young lady living near the ocean. "Atlantic Avenue" and "twisty's" are rarely used in the same sentence. Better than the Jeep she really wants.
