2025 BMW M4 Competition Convertible Facelift Show in Toronto Red
The latest iteration of BMW’s M4 Competition Convertible makes a striking appearance in a vibrant Toronto Red. This facelifted model was introduced to local media by BMW Slovakia. For the 2025 Model Year, the BMW M4 Competition Convertible has undergone a mild transformation, showcasing new lights and interior updates. The most notable changes are seen in the lighting system. The front end now features sharper-looking LED headlights that incorporate a single module for both low and high beams. This new design moves away from the classic “angel eyes” and introduces two arrow-shaped elements that serve as daytime running lights and turn signals. At the rear, the taillights have been enhanced with laser technology, creating a 3D-like effect that adds to the car’s visual drama. This update not only improves aesthetics but also enhances visibility and safety on the road.

As ironic as this is going to sound – don’t believe everything you read on the Internet.

Review: BMW M2 G87 – Ultimate Driving Fun Redefined
The second-generation BMW M2 G87 is here, and its recipe is simple: a compact, rear-wheel-drive rush of a car with a confining back seat.

BMW reportedly charged €750,000 for a 3.0 CSL, making the ultra-exclusive coupe the company’s most expensive new car ever. Even though it wasn’t as spectacular as the namesake Hommage concept from 2015, the modern-day Batmobile was still a special car. Special enough to command such a hefty premium for a rebodied M4?

BMW Says The Supercar Segment Is Already Crowded

It has finally happened – the three high-performance wagons from Germany battled in a good ol’ drag race. There were several showdowns in a straight line, followed by rolling races and even a brake test. You’d be tempted to say the new AMG C63 Estate had a deficit from the get-go because of its small 2.0-liter engine. However, that turbocharged four-cylinder is heavily electrified, giving it an edge over its six-cylinder rivals.

#72 BMW M4 GT3 On Pole Position at the 24 Hours of Nurburgring
