How much does the 2025 BMW M4 cost?

Prices have held steady compared to this time last year, signaling a stable and predictable market for this model year.

There are 330 listings available, which suggests a modest amount of inventory for shoppers to compare.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 a good car?

The 2025 BMW M4 earns an 8.17/10 expert rating, and it is positioned as the high-performance member of the BMW 4 Series family with coupe and convertible body styles, manual and automatic transmission choices, and rear-wheel drive or xDrive all-wheel drive. The standout strength is Performance at 10/10.

That performance focus is backed by the car’s ability to feel comfortable when you want it and track-ready when you need it. The trade-offs are clear: it is expensive and the tech can be hit-or-miss.

The M4’s four-passenger seating and decent cargo capacity make it more usable than many performance cars, but you should still expect a compromise-heavy ownership experience if you prioritize value over speed and polish. 35.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 reliable?

The 2025 BMW M4 is presented as a well-rounded performance car with everyday usability, and its expert evaluation emphasizes that it can be comfortable in normal driving while still delivering serious capability when pushed. Its performance hardware and adjustable driving modes suggest a car built to handle hard use, but also one that asks you to stay on top of maintenance and condition.

The performance setup includes a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, an Active M Sport differential, Adaptive M suspension, M Compound ventilated disc brakes, and M-tuned variable-ratio steering. That combination points to a highly engineered car that should feel robust when maintained properly.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that a high-performance model like this can become costly if prior owners skipped maintenance or drove it hard without proper care.

What should I look for when buying a used 2025 BMW M4?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 93.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on a car with performance hardware and available high-end options. Focus on overall condition, signs of hard use, and whether the car’s equipment matches the way you plan to drive it.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The coupe is offered in base, M4 Competition, and M4 Competition xDrive specifications, while the convertible is available only as the Competition xDrive. The base coupe is the least expensive path, while the Competition xDrive models add the strongest performance and all-wheel-drive capability.
• Powertrain: The M4 uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine. Output ranges from 473 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque to 523 horsepower and 479 pound-feet, depending on transmission choice, and the xDrive setup offers RWD, AWD, and sport AWD modes.
• Safety package: Every M4 includes Active Driving Assistant with forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and blind-spot monitoring. Active Guard collision preparation, driver monitoring, and BMW Assist e-Call are also standard. The Driving Assistance Professional package adds evasive steering assist, lane centering assist, lane change assist, emergency stop assist, and Traffic Jam Assist.
• Infotainment: The M4 uses BMW Operating System 8.5 with Live Cockpit Professional dual-screen instrumentation and infotainment. Wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, SiriusXM 360L, cloud-based navigation, and remote access through a smartphone app are standard.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA says you should expect 18 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2025 BMW M4 trim should I buy?

The 2025 BMW M4 is offered in 3 trim levels: base, M4 Competition, M4 Competition xDrive.

Here's the short version:

• base: This is the one to choose if you want the manual transmission and the lowest entry price. It delivers the least power of the lineup, but it is still the version for buyers who value driver involvement and want to save a few thousand dollars.
• M4 Competition: This trim adds more power and pairs it with the automatic transmission. It is the better fit if you want stronger acceleration without stepping all the way up to xDrive.
• M4 Competition xDrive: This is the quickest and most capable all-weather version, with the strongest output and the xDrive system. It is the best choice if you want maximum performance and the broadest capability, especially in coupe or convertible form.

Every M4 includes Active Driving Assistant, and the Driving Assistance Professional package is available if you want more advanced driver aids.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 BMW M4?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully without expecting a deep bargain on every listing.

• Deal availability: 35.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 330 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady with last year.
• Clean inventory: 93.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $86,283, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2025 BMW M4's resale value?

The current average of $91,893 sits slightly below last year's $92,062.

That small decline suggests the M4’s market has been relatively stable rather than volatile. For a future seller, that can be a positive sign because it points to predictable pricing rather than a sharp drop in value.

The current range also shows that buyers are still paying strong money for clean examples, especially when mileage, condition, and equipment line up well. If you maintain the car carefully and keep it in desirable condition, you should have a reasonable shot at preserving value better than a typical performance car.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 safe?

The 2025 BMW M4 earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Every BMW M4 has Active Driving Assistant, which includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and blind-spot monitoring. Active Guard collision preparation and driver monitoring are also standard, along with BMW Assist e-Call for emergency-service access.

The Driving Assistance Professional package adds evasive steering assist, lane centering assist, lane change assist, emergency stop assist, and Traffic Jam Assist. That package gives you a more advanced safety and driver-assistance setup if you want extra support in traffic and on longer drives.

The surround-view camera system and rear cross-traffic monitoring are especially useful because visibility can be compromised when the top is up. For a car like this, those features also help protect the front air dam and wheels from avoidable scrapes.

Should I buy a 2025 BMW M4 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2025 if:

• 35.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 93.3% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady with last year.
• The 2025 adds a light detail refresh, a slight power bump for Competition xDrive models, and a new operating system for the infotainment system.

The bottom line: If you want the freshest version of this M4 with updated tech and a small performance bump, the 2025 is the right target. If you are more price-sensitive, a nearby model year may still deliver much of the same driving experience for less money, so it is worth comparing carefully before you commit.
