That double exhaust makes me think of N54...

I want that paint job. Seriously, it appears that it will have a folding hardtop, and if so, it will lose the one advantage over all other cars of its type--the ability to put two golf bags in the trunk.

A local BMW salesperson told me the other day to expect seeing the replacement this fall at some of the European shows as a 2009 model that will be at the U.S. dealers this time next year. He told me that production of the Z4 has either ceased or will cease soon. Can anyone confirm the production shutting down?

I thought I would be keeping the Texas Landshark forever.
But now... Wow, I like the new lines; I can take or leave the hard roof; but if the M version gets that amazing V8...oh my...excuse me while I wipe the drool from my keyboard...!!!

Help me Dave Ramsey...I may consider going into debt...!!!!

Hope this image isn't "OOPS-ed"...



I like the look. New lights are mean, but a little Dodge Charger-ish.

Good job. My sources tell me that many of the dealers and sales staff have seen pictures of the new Z4 and it is very much like the photo above. It was described to me as more Aston Martin-ish. Release date not available. With the folding tin-top, color choice might be more critical: those seam lines on the new 3 Series Cabrio really stand out on lighter colors.

i'd only seen dark colors of the new 3series convert, but saw a white one in the flesh not too long ago and the seams were much too evident for my tastes.

[tcmoyle]

a bit smaller, has no run flats or battery operated steering, it could sell. If it is heavier (etc., etc.) I'll pass.

[TXmike]

*-Supposed-* to be just an inch or so bigger in each dimension, which will probably add a few pounds, but if they drop in the twin-turbo motor that might not be a bad thing. Wish they would let the M-version have the V8, but that will probably never happen. Too bad.

Couldn't have said it better. I think this car only makes sense if they release it along with a Z2 that weighs 2500 lbs or less, has hydraulic steering, a cloth top, and NO I-drive....

Is that too much to ask? It should't be.

[330indy/z4M]

every new bimmer is bigger, heavier, oh yeah and more powerful.
yuck
