BUT I still have the E55. Just picked up a 2015 Silverstone Metallic M4. Msrp on this bad boy was $76,500. I love the new C63's but the leasing program on this was insane. I was originally going for a 435 Gran Coupe X drive but this car was a steal on a lease..
I'll slowly get the JB4, downpipes and intake on here

Congrats!! Please do a race between your new M4 and your E55 or another stock one. Would love to see the outcome!!

Ya nice wheels. I'd also be keen on seeing the results of a run between both your cars...

No hate here. I really like the current BMW models. Really wish there was a M5 touring in stick available in the USA. Congrats!

Thank you guys! I'm in middle village queens. I've put only 130 miles on it so far but I love it already lol. It feels like a go kart. Interior is amazing. Ride is a little stiff but not terrible in comfort with the Michelin pilot super sport tires.
Until I break it in and mod the M4 it has zero chance against my 55. My E is very well maintained and pulling extremely hard now with the headers. I believe the M4 will be able to hang for a bit once modded but based on some videos I'm seeing. They don't hold up very well at speeds of 130+.
But it's extremely sexy to look at it and the handling and interior is awesome. I'm very pleased with it.

Ohh, gotcha.. Ive seen some new M3/M4 very low 12s, I think someone ran 12.1 @116mph stock with launch control. Based on the underrated power numbers and the really short gearing I think it would be a good race. But, You have both so no arguments! Post more pics of your new ride. This M car in particular is fun to look at.

They are absolutely underrated that's for sure. I did 116 stock with my e55 so they are very close stock for stock. I have to go to the dealer to unlock the launch control. I'm going to post some more pictures. The color of the car looks much better in person. It looks light blueish in the sun. It's different to say the least.

Only dealer can unlock launch mode? Wow. Get a software flash and then you'll really be making haste.
I think the 3/4 series bmw's are a little better as cars than the C class (bigger backseat, for example), but less luxurious I think.

I have a friend that road races with them all the time. Simply un bolt the parts and sell um.
Heck, he even gives us a heads up when he returns them, as we can buy the cars with the parts at NO cost.
Win, win in my book

We looked at one this Saturday. White on black manual. Can you PM me some details about the lease? I've never leased a car but I do see some deals on the M forums. BMW has hit the styling mark with their new cars.

Nice pickup! I was looking at those for a bit but decided on the S5 instead because of styling, interior, and quattro. It's a daily driver so performance wasn't really the highest priority. It's slow lol
