How much does the 2025 BMW M4 cost?

Prices have softened 1.08% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 331 listings available, which gives you a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 a good car?

The 2025 BMW M4 earns an 8.17/10 expert rating, and the standout strength is Performance at 10/10.

The 2025 M4 sits at the intersection of performance, luxury, and practicality, and it gives you unusual breadth for a performance car with coupe and convertible body styles, manual or automatic transmission choices, and rear-wheel drive or xDrive all-wheel drive. It is also described as one of BMW’s best-driving models, with the ability to feel comfortable when you want it and track-ready when you need it.

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

With 36.9% of listings priced as good or great deals, you have some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 reliable?

The 2025 M4 is presented as a well-rounded, high-performance model that also brings decent cargo capacity and four-passenger usability, which helps it work as more than just a weekend toy. Its performance hardware is substantial, with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, an Active M Sport differential, Adaptive M suspension, and M Compound ventilated disc brakes.

The expert evaluation also points to a car that can be tuned to your preference through configurable powertrain, steering, braking, exhaust, and suspension settings, which suggests a broad operating range rather than a narrow, highly specialized setup. BMW also includes Active Driving Assistant and BMW Assist e-Call as standard, which adds to the sense that the car is engineered with everyday use in mind.

If you plan to keep one used long term, the main ownership risk is that a high-performance car with this level of complexity can be costly to maintain and repair if you buy a neglected example.

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

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.7% — 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, advanced driver aids, and a premium cabin. Focus on condition details that matter most on a used M car: wheel and front-end wear, brake condition, interior trim condition, and evidence that the car has been cared for consistently.

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 in, but the Competition and Competition xDrive versions add more power and, in the xDrive model, broader traction and quicker acceleration.
• Powertrain: You get 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 uses a six-speed manual, the Competition coupe uses an eight-speed automatic, and Competition xDrive models add the M-tuned xDrive system with RWD, AWD, and sport AWD modes.
• Safety package: Active Driving Assistant is standard and includes 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 cabin 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 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 gives you the core M4 experience with the least power, but it is still the right pick if you value involvement and want to save a few thousand dollars.
• M4 Competition: This is the best-value trim if you want more power without stepping all the way to xDrive. It adds 503 hp and the eight-speed automatic, making it the sweet spot for buyers who want stronger acceleration and easier daily driving.
• M4 Competition xDrive: This is the quickest and most traction-rich version, with 523 hp and the M-tuned xDrive system. It is the right choice if you want the most capability and the broadest performance envelope, especially in coupe form or if you want the convertible.

The Driving Assistance Professional package adds more advanced driver aids, but it is not standard.

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: 36.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 331 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.08% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 92.7% 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 $90,598 sits slightly below last year's $91,586.

That modest decline suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you as a buyer today. For a future seller, it means the M4 is not showing strong upward price momentum right now, so resale value may depend more on condition, mileage, and trim than on broad market appreciation.

Because the year-round range runs from $86,213 to $93,565, well-kept examples near the lower end should remain easier to move later. Higher-spec versions may still command attention, but you should expect the market to reward clean history and strong presentation more than simple rarity.

Is the 2025 BMW M4 safe?

The 2025 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, 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. That package gives you the most advanced driver-assistance setup, but it is not standard on every car.

The high-resolution surround-view camera system is especially useful because visibility is compromised when the top is up, and it also helps protect the front air dam and wheels from 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:

• 36.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 92.7% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.08% compared with last year.
• The 2025 model 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 the M4 with the latest updates, the 2025 is the one to target. If you are more price-sensitive, a nearby model year may still deliver much of the same core performance and usability for less money, so it is worth comparing condition and equipment closely before you decide.
