The special edition of the BMW M4 Coupe Edition M is offered with an exclusive exterior and interior look. Setting this model apart will be Laguna Seca Blue, Velvet Blue metallic and Imola Red body colours, which pay homage to the tradition of the high-performance racing cars.
Additionally, the car’s carbon-fibre reinforced plastic roof comes with a striking decorative strip in the BMW M colours, which is integrated into the CFRP composite. Also unique to the car, are the forged, 20-inch M light alloy wheels in a star spoke design featuring the colour Orbit Grey matt and fitted with mixed tyres.
Interior
The interior offering includes model-specific full leather M seats in a bi-colour design and with prominent openings within the area of the seatbacks. Each seat colour is designed to align with the exterior paint and is complemented by partly bi-coloured contrast stitching. In conjunction with the exterior colours, the seats come in Silverstone/Black with turquoise stitching or Velvet Blue and Orange respectively. With the exterior finish Imola Red, the seat colours Red and Black correspond with yellow and red contrast stitching.
Limited edition numbering
The colour scheme continues with interior carbon trim strips designed exclusively for the BMW M4 Edition M Heritage and whose CFRP structure incorporates the stripe design featuring the three M colours. Both the interior trim strips and the door sills bear emblems with the imprints “Edition M Heritage” and “1/750” as an indication of the limited edition of this model. The lettering “M Heritage” – in turquoise, orange or red respectively – is also to be found on the front headrests.
Performance
The BMW M4 Edition M Heritage is powered by a straight six-cylinder engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology kicking out 331 kW and 550 Nm. The engine is paired with a seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission, allowing the car to spring from 0-100 km/h in just 3,8 seconds before reaching a top speed of 250 km/h.
Exclusivity
The BMW M4 Edition M Heritage will be produced and sold worldwide between November 2019 and April 2020 as an edition model limited to 750 units. Only 10 units of the BMW M4 Edition M Heritage will be offered in South Africa.
