Congrats on the M4.
Fantastic car.
Can't tell but is the car auto or manual?
Covid car prices are funny, seems like many used cars are a lot more expensive.

My GTI is DSG, looking forward to go back yo manual.
Modern manual M cars are hard to come by.
Covid has played havoc with used car prices.
One day, I'll get a M2 Competition in manual. I predict it will be a future classic like the E46 M3 manual.
In the not so distance, you won't be able to buy a performance BMW with RWD, manual and is petrol powered.
Due to the horsepower wars, they will be all AWD and auto. Even the non full M model- M340i xDrive has stunning 0-100 performance, partly due to AWD and automatic transmission.

as I'm enjoying the m4 again I decided to fit the apple CarPlay unit I've had sitting in my cupboard for over 2 years, no joke...

It all went pretty easy apart from one of these white slide clips pinging off in to the abyss...
