Picture Comparo: F82 M4 GTS vs E92 M3 GTS

The Automotive Enthusiast · 10-08-2015, 12:56 PM

Thank you, BimmerToday.

I like how the rear spoiler doesn't look like an afterthought on the F82 GTS.

Whaoo the M4 looks sooo fat compare to the E92. I still like the gauges from the E90/92 M3. Also the color matching rollover cage looks sick.

imyopusha · 10-08-2015, 01:06 PM

F82 looks better in so many ways inside and out, but damn, that orange is sublime. I don't think the F82 could pull it off.

s0ul · 10-08-2015, 01:09 PM

I love how much more aggressive it is.

SamS · 10-08-2015, 01:51 PM

I thought the E92 GTS was only available with the LCI taillights?

dkhm3 · 10-08-2015, 01:52 PM

nice thanks!

I love that badonkadonk! Looks great and has more character.

Whoa! I never thought I would say this but the E92 looks dated compared to the F82. I didn't think like that when the F8X just came out.

It's cause the E92 front end looks rather "soft" compared to the Fxx cars. I expect the Gxx to look even sharper, more "chiseled".

I just don't like the teeth on the M3/M4.

IMHO it's the opposite. The wing suits the car even less than it did on the E92.

The E92 in the photo is a pre-production car.

...concerning the taillights. I saw a GTS on Monday on the street outside Munich. The OLED taillights are looking great.

Unfortunately I couldn't take any photo. The frozen grey is also fine, but I don't like the spoiler. It looks for me like it does not belong to that car. But it will function very well, without any doubt, I guess.

First I was just stunned, because the car was without any camo...but the next day BMW officially revealed the car...so no wondering at all.

ciaranob · 10-09-2015, 09:22 AM

Agreed - dare I say it one of the very few redeeming features of the Lexus C F but also most Porches is a far better and more trick wing design - realize that it mimics the race design but the M4's version always looks to me like a kid made it up with his mechano-set!! Reminds me of too many Honda Civic mods!

Both very desirable; and most of us, dare I say, would gladly take either.

But, gun to my head? M4 GTS. Look at it! Rightly so, it's a step up from the last generation.

Geez! Hunker down you hairy dog!!

Now go whup that Black Series C63 AMG.....whenever it comes out. Show 'em who's boss, dammit.

M4 makes the M3 GTS quarter panels look like a 335i

vladberca · 10-11-2015, 03:09 AM

Both generations are impressive.
But it seems like they put more effort creating the M4 GTS and the result is spectacular!

Look at how wide the fenders are. It's awesome.

///Cardia · 10-12-2015, 10:15 AM

Better wheels on the E92!

Ringer · 10-13-2015, 02:27 PM

Μ3 GTS is a car like: Charge more for less.. I can't say the same for the M4. It has all the comforts plus a roll cage, suede etc etc..

So did e92? Seats cage cf interior alcantara steering wheel center console?? Stroked engine. Same formula.

fuddman · 10-17-2015, 11:14 PM

To the eyes, the M4 has the edge. To the ears, there is no way the M4 GTS can even approach the sound made by the V8 on that E92.
The wing on the back looks like an after thought on both cars. I wish they were detachable. That way you could have wing days and non wing days.
