The best hardcore M4?
The return of the CSL badge to a hardcore BMW for the first time in two decades. Take an M4, add 40hp, strip out 100kg, and build just 1,000 of them.Nerdy weight-saving. A carbon hood and trunklid save 24kg.

It’s got a face only its designers could love
The 4-Series coupe is a 3-Series sedan on dress-down Friday. Two doors, a lower roofline, and a hunkered-down center of gravity meet the peerless powertrains from BMW's class-leading four-door. What used to be called the
