M4 (1928 to 2024)

BMW M4 (Australia) — In Australia the M4 has been sold as the coupe/convertible counterpart to the M3 sedan, spanning both F82/F83 (2014–2020) and G82 (2021–present) generations. Across the range you’re looking at 3.0 L twin-turbo inline-6s (S55 in early cars, S58 in current), power from ~317 kW up to ~375 kW+ in Competition models, with 6-speed manual available early, and later cars mostly 7-speed DCT or 8-speed auto depending on gen. Prices on the Australian used market vary widely: F82 non-Competition cars often trade from ~$60k–$85k, F82 Competition cars ~$80k–$110k, and G82 M4s roughly $110k–$160k+ for clean, low-km Competition examples. Manuals are rarer and usually attract premiums across both generations. Key things to check include crank hub/HPFP/cooling on S55 cars, clutch and flywheel on manuals, DCT wear on autos, suspension and brake wear especially on Competition cars, and a full documented service history. Well-maintained M4s are strong performers with broad appeal, but you’re paying for tech and performance rather than raw simplicity.
