How much does the 2025 BMW M4 cost?

Prices have softened 1.98% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 331 listings available, which suggests a modest but workable pool of inventory for shoppers.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 a good car?

The 2025 BMW M4 earns an expert rating of 8.17/10.

The standout strength is Performance at 10/10.

The 2025 M4 is positioned as the high-performance member of the BMW 4 Series family, and it backs that up with coupe and convertible body styles, manual and automatic transmission choices, and rear-wheel drive or xDrive all-wheel drive. That breadth makes it unusually flexible for a performance car, and the overview also points to a light refresh, a slight power bump for Competition xDrive models, and a new infotainment operating system for this year.

The trade-offs are clear: it is expensive, the tech can be hit-or-miss, and the back seat is cramped.

With 31.4% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 reliable?

The 2025 BMW M4 is presented as a well-rounded performance car with a strong emphasis on everyday usability, and its expert evaluation supports that balance with a high overall score and strong marks for safety and performance. The overview also emphasizes that it can feel comfortable when you want it and track-ready when you need it, which is a good sign if you want a car that can handle both commuting and spirited driving.

From a durability standpoint, the performance hardware is substantial: a twin-turbocharged inline-six, an active differential, adaptive suspension, and performance brakes all point to a car built for hard use. The expert notes also describe the M4 as docile and compliant in comfort-oriented settings, which suggests it can be lived with day to day when maintained properly.

BMW also includes a standard maintenance visit perk on some models in this family, but that language is not stated for this car here.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is that a high-performance car like this can become costly if it has been driven hard or skipped regular maintenance.

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

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a history report and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on cars with performance options or heavy use. Focus on tire wear, brake condition, wheel damage, and signs that the car has seen track time or repeated hard driving. Because the M4 is expensive and highly configurable, condition and equipment level matter a lot when comparing listings.

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 entry point if you want the manual transmission and the lowest price, while the Competition xDrive models add the most power and all-wheel-drive capability.
• Powertrain: The M4 uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine with output ranging from 473 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque to 523 hp and 479 lb-ft, depending on transmission choice. The base coupe gets a six-speed manual, the Competition coupe uses an eight-speed automatic, and the Competition xDrive models add the M-tuned xDrive system with 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 an Intelligent Personal Assistant are standard.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA says to 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 least expensive path into the M4. It still gives you the core M4 experience, but it is the least powerful version, so it makes the most sense if you value driver involvement and want to save money.
• M4 Competition: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds more power and the quicker automatic transmission without jumping all the way to xDrive. If you want the strongest balance of performance and price, this is the trim to focus on.
• M4 Competition xDrive: Choose this if you want the most power and the added traction of xDrive. It is the quickest version in the lineup and is also the only convertible specification, so it is the right pick if you want maximum performance or open-air driving.

The Driving Assistance Professional package adds more advanced driver-assistance features if you want the most complete safety setup.

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

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 31.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 331 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.98% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 91.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $86,213, 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 $89,925 sits slightly below last year's $91,739.

That price movement suggests the M4 has softened a bit in the near term, which can help you as a buyer today. If you plan to sell later, the current market shows that values can move down even for a desirable performance model, so condition, mileage, and equipment will matter a lot when it is your turn to list it.

Because the year-round range runs from $86,213 to $93,585, resale outcomes will likely depend heavily on how well your specific car is equipped and maintained. A clean, well-optioned example should be easier to position than a higher-mileage car with visible wear.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 safe?

The 2025 BMW M4 earns a Top Safety Pick+ from IIHS and a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with five-star ratings in frontal crash, side crash, and rollover tests.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

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.

If you want more capability, the Driving Assistance Professional package adds evasive steering assist, lane centering assist, lane change assist, emergency stop assist, and Traffic Jam Assist. That package is especially useful if you spend a lot of time in traffic or want more advanced highway support.

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:

• 31.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.8% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.98% compared with last year.
• The 2025 model brings a light detail refresh, a slight power bump for Competition xDrive models, and a new infotainment operating system.

The bottom line: If you want the freshest version of the M4 with the latest updates and a still-reasonable used-market price, the 2025 is the one to target. If you are more price-sensitive, a nearby year may deliver much of the same core performance for less money, but the 2025 gives you the newest mix of styling, tech, and power.
