This can be a common issue with high-performance cars, especially during cold starts. You may notice more smoke during the winter months or after the car has been sitting for a while. However, if the smoke persists or is accompanied by odd smells or noises, it may be a sign of a more serious issue. It's always best to have a professional mechanic take a look, just to be safe.

Excessive smoke during startup can be a sign of worn piston rings or valve guides, which can be common wear and tear in a high-performance car like the BMW M4. I highly recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection to ensure everything is functioning properly.

I've owned a BMW M4 for years and have experienced this myself. It's usually nothing to worry about, but it's always best to have a mechanic take a look just to be safe. You may also want to consider using a higher quality oil or performing regular oil changes to help prevent excessive smoke during startup.
