- Watch the drag race here: • Drag Race | BMW M4 DTM...
In Part 2 of this mega head-to-head shootout, we head to the full circle for a hot lap race between these two very special cars.
The Bimmer is certainly the underdog here, with less power but less weight. And while the Mercedes Benz battled to get off the line in the drag race, it's huge power will certainly help it here at the Killarney circuit, a track which does favour more horsepower, given the two very long straights and fast, sweeping corners.
- Track test conducted at sea level
- Ambient temperature: 38 degrees celcius (it was crushingly hot that day!)
- Circuit length: 2.7km
- Fuel: 95 Octane unleaded
- Tyres: Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 (both cars, more wear on the BMW)

That sound on that Merc 👌🏼
M4 **
Im a BMW fan and I knew it wouldn't beat this merc... That merc is a monster... A complete track monster
you are fixed man,see the powers,62 hp more mercedes,shut up kid,go to play tetris
Man the production quality here is world class, proud to be SA right now.
The M4 ultimately is based on a 5 seating road car. The GTR was built ultimately to take on the world's supercars. In some magazine tests, the GTR beat out even the mighty Ferrari 488 GTB. There was zero chance that that BMW could keep up in anyway.
Yeah, that's why it's amazing that BMW was able to bring a 4 series up to the level of merc's purpose-built performance car.
2.6 seconds on a short lap is a world's difference. That being said, the AMG is still very livable every day, but the BMW here... they've thrown out everything that makes it daily usable in the pursuit of speed.
Honfy Lam right and i think mercedes gtr is better then any of its rivals .
And the 488gtb has almost 100hp more
One thing's for sure if you haven't noticed that's not a regular m BMW that is a modified BMW
To me, i love and adore both cars equally so it was a win/win... they're both beautiful and fast machines! 👌🏽
Excellent video, keep these kind of battles coming! Merry X-mas from Netherlands.
over 2 seconds thats a lifetime in a race
Awesome video. How about a test featuring C63s vs BMW M4 vs Audi RS5. One video and not broken down in to three parts.
The most hardcore Mercedes road car is the Project One.
3 T pre production is already out breaking records but it's not official yet
Wanna hear what it sounds like. 1.6 V6 turbo and electric motors.
Love the drawn logos on the white board!
Can't wait to see what you've got for us in 2018
You should have done 2 laps for each car in a row - 1st lap with standing start, 2nd as a flying lap (which is much closer to track days reality). I guess the time difference would be less in the 2nd lap.
No point to compare these two cars, they are not even in the same class, in fact BMW never build any super cars.
But this BMW is modified
there’s actually a point because they are the fastest track cars that these companies have.
M6 GT3
Lol really ,are you trying to downgrade bmw
Uhhh i8?
surprisingly good videos from this South African channel
HAHAHA had a nice laugh at the end !!!
+Francois Botha That was some of Ciro's best work, we just had to throw it in :)
BMW 's 493hp "164,000 $" vs Merc's 580hp "195,000$", that's a pure 87hp difference! Not a fair comparison at all!
With similar hp BMW will win for sure and i take M4 DTM edition over that Mercedes anyday
I wouldn't ever buy M4 DTM, it's just waste of money. Getting a competition M4 is much smarter since they are basically from the same platform. The initial design is just not for a track but mix of track and street. I'll definitely get the AMG GTR
@@lc1795 BMW is better than Mercedes
Hen zo that's your opinion I won't argue about it. I'm just comparing this car from my own thought. Btw I own a M3 F80 competition and I still think M4 DTM is not worth it
@@lc1795 Same about Mercedes. They make AMG GT, AMG GTS and GT R, why you think BMW cars dont worth it but Mercedes worth ?. BTW: M4 CS beat AMG GT and M4 GTS beat AMG GTS. AMG GT R has way more hp than BMW DTM
“Can I use any more metaphors “😂😂😂😂
Lol
Lol
An AMG GTR costs 2.7m rand? thats equivalent to 280k aud. The AMG costs 350k in aus not incl. on road costs. WOW I need to live in south africa
In Germany they cost „only“ 265k aud equivalent. But in south africa you will have the better weather ;)
Body type and displacement made the diff here
We need a car show on our television please guys consider this be the top gear of South Africa
What car can you do next
Straight 6 vs V8...BMW does magic
I think a fair comparison should be the m5 comp or m8 comp. since the AMG GTr is such a monster. I think the C63 is the proper m4 competitor
Love that AMG and I own a Beemer
Think about the achievement BMW achieved with the M4 range they took a 2 door Car and made it almost as fast as a car that was build on a track
not even close
What are you on? The AMG is 2.6 secs faster. This a 2 classes above the m4. BMW built nice sportcoupes but they dont built Proper sportcars. Sorry for your BMW Heart 😚
jojajo2707 See the difference? No, so i make it clear For You. Super car vs Sports car. Thats what happened Here, it's still amazing For BMW bringing up such a Performance as being a Sports car who Can compete with a super car.
Sorry For your MB Heart.
2011Transformersdotm its a Great Performance of the m4 but its still 2 classes behind that you called supersportcar. Nearly 3 seconds in that Tiny track. Sorry, but its Not even Close. Cheers
jojajo2707 dude i accept that the BMW lost but it was already obvious. You could assume from the beginning which car will win, but You gotta admit that the BMW Performed well competing a supercar. The gtr was Overall better except Weight which made no difference because of it's much more HP. The MB is a super car And the BMW just a Sports car, no one Said that the m4 is a supercar.
Well played... When is the *Mercedes Benz AMG GT S vs BMW M2* video coming out?
I have a M2, but the GT S will beat the M2 on the track.
Samuel Wu I think the joke went over your head… I was being sarcastic about the video comparing an apple to an orange
Both are very good car but for my a BMW M4 is a very fast coupé and the AMG GTR a very fast Sportcar
BMW for sure
I wonder what would happen if bmw did everything that they did to this m4 to an m6
strip it out, give it flaps instead of real door cards, a spoiler, a roll cage, titanium exhaust, carbon fibre roof, bonnet and trunk lid. wow it would be a beast of a car and would sound incredible with that v8. "M8 CSL"
that's a supercar there made , 600hp then water injection 690hp and make it light holy shit would be a monster
SUBZEROBAMOLAMO exactly!
BMW M yes!
Yoh yoh yoh merc would shit bricks for days...😂
No doubt, bmw needs a super car to competitive such enemies on road and track..
Wow this Beemer
I mean considering the M4 DTM is a based on it's daily sports car base model counterpart, it did exceptionally well keeping pace with what the AMG GTR which is genuinely considered a supercar.
Unfair comparison. You're comparing a supercar (that's been made to take on the best supercars in the world) against a tuned, special version of a sport coupe.
BMW doesn't have a rival for the AMG GTR which makes this comparison absolutely pointless.
You said it yourself, BMW doesn't have any model that rivals the AMG GTR, so the most competent contender from BMW, in this case, is the track-focused M4.
Who's fault is that?!
Richie Chou ikrrr
@@yousef.al-assaf If this guy makes slow time for BMW dosn't mean this Mercedes is better. 500 hp BMW vs 585 hp Mercedes
@@yousef.al-assaf 💪👏👏😂😂best way to reply😁
@@henzo7087 halo lil BMW fan boy welcome bac😁
Why the hell is the race driver wearing a helmet with Nissan decals?
GT Academy driver that's why. It's sponsored by Nissan.
You should of done the test of the AMG GTR vs 991.2 GT3 way more interesting and fair. At the end of the day the BMW is based on a standard 3 series chassis (320i) whilst the AMG is based of the GT which is a brilliant car already, so what BMW have done to get the car which what they had is impressive but still no match for the AMG, which is beastly
inb4 the "these cars shouldnt be compared" comments come in
I don't think they should be compared IMO. The M4 DTM is just a normal M4 on steriods whilst the GTR is a hardcore track monster from birth. It should be competing with the GT3 RS.
Lol they shouldn't, at the end of the day it's just an m4, it's a c63 competitor.
This is equally as silly as comparing an m4 to an r8.
Lets see how it will play out when the M8 comes ;)
Actually M4 GTS and M4 DTM edition is faster around track than R8
RealCapo88
The BMW M8 would kill the GTR AND M4 GTS in the straights are you serious ? The M8 has way more power to make up for the weight and the lap time is officially faster than a GTS on the Nurburgring the BMW M CEO has stated. BMW M8 0-60 0-124 0-189 is way faster than a M4 GTS, the M8 and M4 GTS is incomparable. The quarter mile is already in the 10s. It’s basically a Real super car performance wise
which red color is this? jupiter or hiacynt?
Yes.
What about the rolling lap? I mean the second lap.
Very strange comparison on so many levels, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
Actually not a bad result for the BMW considering the Merc is a purpose-built sports car with a much lower CoG, no rear passenger space and an FMR engine layout.
Amg et brabus 👍👍👍❤❤❤
GooD!
M4 !!!
Can you please do a review on the 6x6 AMG
I'd take the merc santa in green please!!! wow such a track focused BMW and still 2 sec short waaaat!!!
I expected this to be closer, but this video just proves my point. That the best BMW M car, is nowhere near as good as what Mercedes Benz AMG are doing "currently". Like Chris Harris said.. " BMW must try harder". They just not as good as they use to be.
Cheslyn Owens
They can but they don't want
This M4 DTM (a reskinned M4 GTS) isn't meant to be in the same league as the AMG which is why it has a 100hp less. If BMW made a M6 GTS it'll be closer, etc.
The M4 is just a modified 4 series luxury cruiser while the AMG is a purpose-built performance car designed from the ground up to be a performer. Yet the AMG barely beat the M4. And by the way, for all the direct-rival AMG vs ///M comparisons, ///M wins everytime. Now I just want BMW to make a purpose-built sports car to rival the current offerings on the market from mercedes and porsche.
The AMG GTS is not a luxury cruiser. Are you saying that the AMG GTS is the same as a 3 series? The 4 series is just the coupe version of the 3 series. The AMG GTS was purpose-built to be a performance machine. It's low and wide and has the aerodynamics of a supercar, it's also alot more powerful with a 4.0L V8 compared to the M4's 3.0L i6. The 420i is narrow and tall to allow for comfortable commute to and from the corporate office, with very little aero and a smaller base engine. Your attempt to claim that the AMG GTS is the same as a 420i just shows how dishonest you are.
Hopefully BMW will make a purpose-built performance car soon, and when they finally do, I guarantee it will be a game changer. It will be worth the wait... guaranteed!
Did you just bring up an Aston Martin, admit that it has a fucking V12, then compare it to a 4 series? Seriously? How much for the V12 Aston Martin?
"Luxury cruiser is not limited to a 3 series"? What's your point? We're talking about a 3 series. I don't care what else you want to label as a luxury cruiser. I AM TALKING ABOUT A 3 SERIES, that's the class I'm referring to. Let me repeat, it was not created on a performance platform, it was created on a luxury/sport-cruiser platform. Then M-division made a high performance version that quite frankly boggles the mind for the type of car that it is. Are you one of those people who denies the performance of a car that does 7:28 on the nurbergring?
I'll give you this though... the price might be a bit high. But the engineering that went into transforming the 4 series platform into this, is pretty amazing.
check the specs
If the merc has over sixty kilowatts and hundred hp more than the m4 DTM and the difference is 2.5 sec and also considering how Ash drove it. I'm certainly impressed with it and my issue with the m4 is that price tag.
It is quite clear that the GT-R is more on par with the likes of the Audi R8 and Porche 911s, and other super cars. Which begs the question... Which car would be a close competitor to this M4?..
it's in the super sport segment like alfa and c class witch BMW kills it there but BMW is working on M8 to beat the shit out of this segment
Fucktard. The M8 will shit on any rival. Fucking fanboy
*Mercedes-Benz*
The best or nothing. 💯👌🏼
///AMG power 💪🏼🔥❤️
BMW is better lol. 500 hp vs 585 hp
Challenge
I'm from the states this guy said it's extremely hot 38 degrees I'm extremely confused lol can somebody explain
We use the metric system in South Africa, therefore, it is 38 degree Celsius not Fahrenheit (it should be around 100 degree Fahrenhiet if my math is correct).
rudy gay 38 degrees Celsius. That’s about 100 degrees Fahrenheit
It should be M4 vs C63
GTR does look a bit more stout.
You don't put : after seconds you put a " ." Merc 1:25.31
So Which is the best car :(1) Mersedes AMG (2) BMW DTM
1
You guys did a vid on the Audi RS5, M4 and C63s the M4stime then was 128.34 if i remember correctly. That M4 is not worth the extra million bucks.
This one did a 127.94.... Std M4 is the best car still at 1.2mil.
Faut la comparer à l'M6 DTM
Benz my love whit my car
Y’all are dumb for even thinking these cars are on the same class, lol. “Comparison” should mean same class. If the best merc built to rival super cars was only 2.5 seconds faster than a tuned up sports car I’m disappointed 😂
BMW's sound ❤
Sounds like a Fart
BMW should not even be mentioned in the same sentence as the AMG GTR
I reckon for a v6 against a v8 bmw is doing pretty good so still bmw for life😘🤙🏼
Wilfred Gordon A 2.5 second difference is huge on a track. It's actually humiliating for the bmw considering how closely priced they are.
Lol still lost
The normal m4 did a 1:28 on this track
Bmw or Mercedes, both are beatifull cars
Nice “Nissan” Helmet
not very scientific, is it? you should get a driftbox to accurately measure lap times, if you're going to do more of this (which i would really like to see).
u know why this car is called DTM champions edition ? cause it beats Mercedes in DTM .(in same level)
Same price tag 🤷♂️
It's just a me GTS ... That got beat by a mustang gt350R around about every track
You write as though the Mustang is a 2.0l diesel... It's a 5.2l V8 with 526hp... vs a 3 s6....
Mercedes is love enjoyed seeing Mercedes win but this BMW was impressive to
the bmw is still based off a sedan unlike the amg supercar, bmw need to make a dedicated supercar as well
A difference in 3 seconds for a car that has almost 100 less horse power, and lower bottom end torque because it's a V6 vs. V8 isn't bad.
An E92 M3 built by FV engineering could wipe the floor with that GTR, and it's still cheeper and sounds better.
🍼
4:36 "this thing doesn't even have door handles? then what the fuck is tthat door handle on the right of the strap door handle?? does the dtm have two door handles?? wtf please explain
bmw should really make a proper supercar that would compete against lambo, ferrari, mclarens and porsches. maybe a hypercar
Not a good comparison. The two cars are not in the same league. BMW never intended building the M4 DTM to compete with supercars. A more appropriate comparison is to a C63S which the M4 beat
AMG GTR рулит)
AMG always
BMW😈😍👌
The best or nothing, the M power has been put in its place
///M => | /__ M🤗
By the difference M4 worth the money
500 hp BMW has.. just need 50 hp more to 550 and will beat Mercedes
Ofcourse Mercedes always needs more hp to beat BMW like this one with 85 hp more
Most of the amg's sounds like a truck and the reason is every amg's having too much stuffs under the hood.All they want is high horsepower and massive V engine but it's heavy too WHAT IS THE POINT?
Dont you get it ?, its 500 hp vs 585 hp Mercedes 150 kg diffrent or less weight isn't it ?. How BMW can beat it, they schould add this 50 hp to M4 DTM from factory. 50 hp more and Mercedes has no chance
Price isn't the same man, Mercedes cost more. BMW is better
All the Mercedes fan boys wait till the M1 is relaunched.... The Audi R8 and the AMG GTR both will be shitting their engine oil off!
Oh doesnt matter How hard BMW try. They stripped a m4 totaly but Drive 2 classes below supersportcars. BMW are just overpowered coupes but no real sportcars
jojajo2707 these cars are not even in the same class. Check the c63 vs M4 video where the c63 gets destroyed
@@fernandomarcilio3999 🍼
next time use balanced cars,BMW win vs ferrari,porche and others,mercedes in this race was 62 hp different
If they race 20 laps the Mercedes heats up and dies! M4 is still the king
As a hardcore amg fan , I know bmw gonna lose, but still bmw done a better job to keep up with GTR
I am BM
Its actually an unfair test 3.0 inline 6 vs 4.0 V8 merc is 100 Nm more and 60Kw more what did you expect obviously the Merc will win hands down... ***BMW***
BMW best
If i had the money i wouldn’t spend it on ridiculously priced , stripped out BMW. After all the 6 cylinder sound like a dirt-bike... awful
Idk what kind of Sexy Dirtbikes you guys have where you live. But thats one sexy engine
The price of the AMG is TWICE the M4??
I wonder what would’ve happened if the AMG is also 3.0 🤔
Maybe BMW need an engine upgrade
S58 engine is coming soon.
Merc is the best
BMW needs to finally make a purpose-built performance car, designed from the ground up to perform like these other manufacturers. It's time to silence the merc fanboys now. They're so proud because their purpose-built performance car barely beat a modified 4 series luxury cruiser.
You mean a BMW car that can compete against the Project One (new bench mark for AMG), if not keep on hoping/wishing. But, if I were you, I would accept that AMG is starting to take aim at Porsche whilst the M-division seems not bet interested to engage at that level. As result, the ultimate road going AMG will in all likelihood be faster then the ultimate M-car.
No, I meant something similar to the AMG GTS and GTR. I also want BMW to make a supercar or a hypercar for that matter. But I know for a fact that any day BMW finally decides to make a supercar, it is going to be an incredible thing to behold. Rumor has it the next M6 will be a Porsche rival. And M-division is still the benchmark.
jamviator I wouldn't call that barely. 2.5 secs over 30 laps and the Mercedes would be a lap ahead.
Chima Chinda ... Fair enough, but the driver did say if he had more time with the M4 he could have gone much faster. I've heard other professional drivers say the same thing about the M4 and I believe this car is capable of a better laptime. The M4 GTS has a 7:28 nurbergring laptime with a BMW professional driver, that's faster than alot of supercars. It's amazing for what is effectively a 4 series.
jamviator fair enough. but ever since the E46 M3, I get the sense that the M-division is playing catch up rather then sitting the tone. Til to this day, I do not think there is a naturally aspirated car(3.5 litre or less) in that category that can keep up with the E46 M3 but the same can't be said about the current M4/M3 (even Cadillac CTS V seems to better driving car).
Let’s wait for AMG GT-Black
Yall still comparing these to cars😂come on it doesn't make sense
am a merc gal errrrryyyyday
Mers silnie
The m4 speed is still limited by the manufacture, it can go faster than that
Brabus will answers.
The benz cost twice as much
check your numbers again you single digit IQ vermin.
Bring AMG C63 S and see who wins
