BMW M4 Pickup: This Wild Tuning Build Blends a Sports Coupe With a Real Truck

A radical BMW M4 pickup conversion inspired by Australia’s Maloo performance trucks is now for sale.

BMW M4 Pickup: This Wild Tuning Build Blends a Sports Coupe With a Real Truck

The tuning studio DinMann decided to experiment where the Bavarian automaker normally draws the line. The result is a one-of-a-kind vehicle—a hybrid of a sports coupe and a pickup truck based on the BMW M4 Competition (G82).

The project is called Maloo, a nod to the legendary high-performance pickup built by Holden in Australia. The unusual build first appeared publicly at the SEMA Show 2022. Now the eye-catching machine is officially looking for a new owner.

The starting point was a two-door M4 coupe. After extensive modifications, however, only the front half of the car remains close to the original design. Behind the driver and passenger seats, the builders completely reshaped the bodywork—removing the factory roof and installing a fully functional cargo bed with low side walls.

Up front, the car features a custom DinMann body kit, while the widened fenders include functional vents. The aggressive look is finished off with matte-black wheels from HRE Wheels.

But the most interesting changes are under the hood. The engineers didn’t stop at visual modifications—they also upgraded the performance hardware. The stock engine now includes an upgraded intake system from Wagner Tuning, larger turbochargers, a performance exhaust from GTHaus, and a revised ECU tune. Exact power figures haven’t been released, but the upgrades promise a serious boost in performance.

The custom pickup has only about 7,500 miles on the odometer. It’s currently listed for sale at $145,000. That’s more than twice the price of many used M4 Competition models—and even significantly higher than the starting price of a new base M4, which begins at around $86,500 in the U.S.

The price tag may be steep, but the vehicle is truly unique. After all, not many people can say they own a pickup truck that drives like a true BMW sports car.
