Spy photographers from Inautonews online magazine has recently managed to catch on shots a BMW M4 test mule, while undergoing some tests, sporting some camouflage at the front bumper and rear end.

But one`s vigorous eyes might see the real deal under the camouflage, as the BMW M4 seen here is sporting a lot of serious changes, carried out by the German engineers.

We are talking about a revised lip at the front, which would mold the aerodynamics of the car, along with the wing at the back, that would increase the sports car`s power, resembling thus with a MotoGP model.

The first one-off BMW model to sport these kind of modifications was the BMW E92 M3 GTS, which were additional to the standard parts.

It also came with a rear wing, more aerodynamic tweaks, Recaro seats inside, while at the back, the passengers` seats were removed for lightweight.
