M4 Convertible (2021-2025)

Can you afford a 2021-2025 BMW 4 Series M4 Convertible in 2025?

# 2021-2025 BMW M4 Convertible The G83-generation M4 Convertible pairs BMW's potent twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six (473-503 hp) with open-air thrills and a power-operated soft top. Infamously polarizing for its oversized vertical kidney grille, the M4 delivers blistering performance with 0-60 mph in around 3.7 seconds. Reviewers praise its surgical handling, muscular powerplant, and refined grand touring capability, though some criticize its firm ride and controversial styling. The Competition xDrive variant adds all-wheel drive for enhanced traction. Purists debate whether the convertible's added weight dilutes the M experience compared to the coupe. Best suited for driving enthusiasts seeking a daily-drivable performance convertible with luxury appointments and track-day potential. Ideal for sunny-climate buyers who value BMW's motorsport pedigree wrapped in practical, year-round usability—provided they can embrace that divisive front end.

The 2021-2025 BMW M4 Convertible incurs high operating costs with premium fuel requirements, expensive maintenance (oil changes ~$200+), and costly repairs due to complex turbo inline-six engine. Insurance rates are steep given performance classification. Carbon buildup on intake valves requires periodic cleaning (~$500-800). Extended warranty recommended as repairs can exceed $5,000.
