BMW Australia has announced some changes to its M4 range, including a massive price cut for the M4 CS.

Originally introduced at $211,610, the CS flagship has had its price slashed by $21,710, bringing it down to a far more reasonable $189,900.

In addition, BMW has dropped the regular M4 from its local line-up, leaving the Pure, Competition, and CS as the only M4 variants.

“We have been working hard behind the scenes to deliver strong pricing for our M vehicles,” says Werner.

“By introducing the M4 Pure local editions, we have made this core M car more accessible than ever.

“In addition, internal and customer feedback has allowed us to re-examine the flagship M4 CS pricing. The result is a new price point of $189,900, and is available to customers who have pre-ordered a CS, as well as those planning to purchase in the future.”

It’s now only a $33,190 jump from the M4 Competition (at $156,710) to the top-spec CS, with the M4 Pure still the most affordable variant at $139,900.

The lack of standard M4 however now leaves a $16,810 gap between the Pure and Competition variant. The M4 was still at the higher end of that gap, costing $151,610.

Specifications for each variant have not changed, with the M4 Pure and Competition producing 331kW/550Nm, and the CS getting an extra bit of kick with 338kW/600Nm from a tuned-up version of the 3.0-litre twin-turbo inline six.
