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.

MaintenanceCosts GM hasn't put any effort into any Cadillacs except the Blackwings and the electrics. They're getting out what they put in. Pretty simple, really.The XT4/5/6 are all just slightly up-styled versions of Chevy products, but priced as if they were on dedicated luxury platforms like the BMW and Benz competitors to the larger two. The XT6 is especially embarrassing.Even the Escalade is just a Tahoe/Suburban with a few trick design touches and a halfhearted materials upgrade. The good news for Cadillac is that the Tahoe/Suburban are seen as upscale enough that a half-a$s upgrade to them can be a legitimate luxury car.Where's the "gotta have it" factor? Where are the dazzling interior designs? Where's the swagger? Until those show up the brand is just a set of memories.
Dwford The problem with Cadillac is that the only Cadillac they sell is the Escalade. Cadillacs are supposed to be large imposing vehicles that are visually impressive. Only the Escalade meets that standard. Everything else Cadillac sells are knock off BMWs. Cadillac shouldn't be in the business of selling compact 4 cylinder crossovers. Dime a dozen vehicles. You'd be better off buying a high trim version of any mainstream crossover than an XT4. Why does a CT4 start at the same price as a Camry XSE? Why do Buicks have nicer interiors than Cadillacs? Why to CHEVYS have nicer interiors than Cadillacs?
EBFlex “Insatiable demand” Pretty sad when even the Uber deranged EU doesn’t want EVs.
Jbltg Had a rental like this once, stock of course. NYC to Vermont. Very smooth and quiet, amazing fuel economy. Not the best for interior space though. Back seat and trunk barely usable.
MKizzy I suppose this means most GM rentals will be Trailblazers and/or Traxes with Encore GX's and Envistas considered an upgrade.GM stopped trying with the Malibu years ago and was merely waiting for its opportunity to swing the axe. Any U.S. sedan GM introduces in the future will probably come from China barring a trade war escalation. At least the plant producing the Malibu it won't close; at least not until GM finds a way to move production of the next Bolt across the border or offshore without touching the UAW third rail.
