Nobody would call the current BMW M4 Competition xDrive’s performance lacking. With over 500 hp on tap from a 3.0-liter, twin-turbo inline-six (dubbed as the S58 among enthusiasts), and all-wheel drive, the model variant is impressive straight from the factory. Despite its 3,900-pound curb weight, it’s a precision tool for not only achieving notable speed, but maintaining it to a point surpassing where the lateral grip of other performance cars begins to falter.

Sayer was at the helm, and we sat shotgun.
