BMW built just 803 M4 GTS track weapons worldwide, and the very last one — #803 with only 305 miles — is now for sale at $1 million.

Own the Final Chapter of BMW’s M4 GTS Legacy

The 2016 BMW M4 GTS represented Munich’s most focused track weapon, a limited-production masterpiece that bridged the gap between road car and race machine. BMW produced just 803 examples globally, with only 300 originally earmarked for the United States. Now, the final M4 GTS ever produced, #803 of 803 is for sale on Exotic Car List with just 305 miles on the odometer, for an impressive $1 million.

When BMW introduced the M4 GTS in 2016, it commanded a base price of $135,195 before options, more than double the regular M4’s MSRP of $67,000. At launch, this positioned the GTS against competitors like the Porsche 911 GT3 RS and McLaren 570S, so you can be sure BMW made sure the M4 GTS was worth the ask.

The M4 That’s As Fast As a Porsche Carrera GT

The M4 GTS wasn’t simply a more powerful M4, it featured the world’s first production car water-injection system, making it both the first and last M car to feature this technology. This revolutionary system provided a 49-horsepower gain over the standard M4, spraying water into the intake manifold to cool the pressurized air-fuel mixture for more efficient combustion, an old hot-rodders’ trick. The result was the M4 GTS’ 493 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque.

The GTS philosophy extended beyond raw power. BMW stripped weight, added aggressive aerodynamics, installed a roll cage, and fitted manually-adjustable suspension. The result was a street-legal track car that could lap the Nürburgring in 7:28, matching the original lap time of the Porsche Carrera GT. It took BMW nearly a decade to beat that lap time, with the hardcore G82 M4 CSL setting a 7:18 lap in 2023.

"Bemeers are design to last 30,000 miles...then just fall apart"

That has not been my experience. My 2003 BMW 325xi has 227,700+ miles on it (I am the original and only owner). The engine and transmission both still run like a dream. Have I had to put money into it? Sure, but it's still the best driving car I've ever driven. Over the years, I have replaced many parts, but one of the nice things about the old BMW's, is that you can still do a lot of work on them yourself, if you've got some tools and a little determination.

Sure, but it will be in the shop for a number of days. Who cares who pays.

I still take mine back to the closest MINI dealer for annual service, which is about two hours away.

Fortunately, I do have a couple of local mechanics that will work on it if I can’t get it to the MINI dealer, including a good Euro shop.

Hopefully both our MINIs keep chugging along!

I have. 92 twin turbo dodge stealth with water-methanol injection.
All wheel drive, active aero, electronic switchable suspension putting out over 25 pounds boost.
Water injection has been around since the late 70’s ( as far as I am aware )
Ahead of its time for early 90’s

We bought a 2018 Lexus RX 350 from the local Lexus dealer in 2019. The car had 4200 miles on it. My wife had an Audi Q5 that she got rid of prior to us getting married. I’m really glad we dumped that POS, the dealer had it more than she did. The Lexus has had zero problems.

Driven BMWs most of my adult life. E30...E36...E39.

Owned a '99 M3 and a '00M5 (The Beast) and raced them with the Regional BMW Club.

You haven't driven a BMW until you drive an M series. And I don't mean the "M Package" Add-On accessory. I'm 79. IMO, they truly are the ultimate driving machine

Same here.

Had the 750Li, beautiful car. I swear the thing floated on air.

Took a major hit on maintenance and depreciation.

The major problem with the E90/92 M3 is the rod bearings. Tolerances from the factory were a little on the tight side.

I wouldn't care if the car is under warranty and I get a loaner. That said, when is the last time you have seen a BMW or MB broken down on the side of the road.
