The BMW M4 GTS (F82) is a hardcore, track-focused, limited-production version of the standard M4. Released for the 2016 model year, BMW only built 700 units worldwide.
The Headlines
Water Injection System: Its defining feature. It sprayed a fine mist of distilled water into the intake plenum to lower air charge temperatures, allowing the S55 twin-turbo inline-six to safely push 493 hp and 443 lb-ft of torque (a 16% bump over the base M4).
Track Hardware: It came from the factory with a manually adjustable 3-way coilover suspension, carbon-ceramic brakes, an adjustable carbon fiber front splitter/rear wing, and lightweight Acid Orange wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber.
Weight Reduction: To shed roughly 60 lbs, BMW deleted the rear seats, added a factory roll cage, installed lightweight carbon-fiber bucket seats (non-US models), and fitted a titanium exhaust system.
It was notoriously stiff on normal roads, but it clocked a 7:28 Nürburgring lap time, putting it squarely in supercar territory for its era.
