I have no idea what's it's doing there, but here it is (still with standard interior and seats, production model will have racing seats, roll bar/cage, etc.):

Hmmm - had not really noticed but the Euro or non-US version of the LCI tail light is actually far better looking than the US version - amber-red combo splits up that weird 'soft' loop in all red version that I don't like. Have to honestly say though that I still prefer the more linear 2015 design.

PS: May be some sort of photo-shoot in desert environs - who knows?

I thought the GTS was going to have different, lightweight seats? From the one picture, the seats look like the standard f82 seats.

It will be useless if it is going to be driven over there. It is a zoo when it comes to traffic NO ONE gives a shit about traffic laws.
My guess it is in transit to some other country.
On another note is that the facelift LED lights on the back?

It will, the interior is the regular M4 on the concept car and that is why they had tinted the windows blacker than black.

What you're looking at is the OLED Concept tail lights for the M4; of course they look great. Nobody but BMW insiders know what the M4 LCI tail lights look like yet. It is true that the Euro tails have amber though.

May be it is a reward from Angela Merkel to elsisi for the military coup against their democratically elected president. To the best of my knowledge he is that cheap

Very interesting and good find. I really wonder where it will end up.

With its non N. American spec bumpers and MPH cluster, it truly is an interesting car.

just like the M4 concept was on a std 4 series platform, it was mostly just a shell.

It has to be doing some kind of desert photo shoot, either that or hot weather climate testing.
