In case the exhaustive photo gallery BMW offered once the M4 GTS was unveiled wasn’t enough, you can now take a closer look at the performance model via an online visualizer. At the moment, it isn’t available on the US website but the UK and the German ones should cater to your needs.
Using the visualizer, you can also go outside the realm presented in the official photo gallery. That’s how you’ll be able to see the GTS in all the colors available for it, not just Frozen Dark Grey Metallic. Admittedly, that’s the one color we’d go for but it’s good to know there are other options on the table.
They include Mineral Grey Metallic, Black Sapphire Metallic and Alpine White. The UK configurator, unfortunately, doesn’t include Mineral Grey, but you can use the German version if you’re curious about this particular hue.
Other choices you can scroll through using the left-hand menu include wheels, upholstery and interior trims. Unfortunately, there’s only one choice of wheels offered, the brilliant design featuring Acid Orange accents. While we like the way they turned out, a wider range wouldn’t have been scoffed at.
The same story applies for the upholstery and interior trims, both of them being restricted to only once choice. The former is represented by an Alcantara Anthracite/Merino Leather Black combination while the latter is a ‘choice’ of black chrome trims with GTS badging embedded in them. Of course, the GTS lettering is done in Acid Orange too.
No matter what you’d be going for though, you’d be driving the fastest car BMW ever put into production, with an acceleration time of 3.8 seconds from a standstill to 100 km/h (62 mph). The top speed is limited at 305 km/h (190 mph) though, even though the car can apparently go up to higher velocity.
This is all possible due to the water injection technology used on the S55 engine, a premiere for both BMW and the auto industry, managing to improve performance from 431 HP and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque to 500 HP and 600 Nm (433 lb-ft) of torque.
Prices for the US market are not available yet but in Germany they start at €142,600 and that's what makes the GTS the most expensive BMW on sale today.
