The F82 M4 is widely regarded by enthusiasts as a modern classic that perfected the dual-nature of a comfortable luxury coupe and a track-ready weapon.
The DCT transmission can produce a "clunk" at low speeds and sometimes requires cooling upgrades for extended track use.
The F82 was designed to be stiffer and lighter than the F80 M3 Sedan, with a heavy emphasis on rigidity.
The 7-speed M Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) is lauded for lightning-fast shifts, though many purists prefer the 6-speed manual option, which was available throughout production.
A popular modification is upgrading to 10.5-inch rear wheels for a deeper concave look.
