Saw one in dark blue today, looked much more masculine. Hope they fixed the ride, I had the previous shape Z4 and they crossed the line with the ride even on standard wheels and springs, was a nightmare to wrestle with on British roads at speed. Every pot hole was a potential dart off line into a bush or worse!
Peoples! its a roadster and this is what a roadster shoud look like. it you look at the swooping lines on the side of the vehicle it follows the traditional design. Now the z3 was a good car but it was quite small. And i hated the design on the 1st gen z4. But now it looks a lot muscular and back to its BMW fashion. And what!? A twin turbo straight six!? C'mon!
the old bmws used to look elegant and have structure, like the razor sharp nose on the 80s 6-series - now the two piece grille just looks like 2 fried eggs or something
bmw has already come out and said so. just like there will be no csl version of the e92 m3 and no m version of the 7series. 7 series i can handle but not bringing out an even more brutal car of the best sports saloon in the world is an absolute crime. this car would have looked fantastic as an m car. but unfortunately we will never see it.
I've had both the MZ3 and Z4 3.0si. Because I'm older (42) I'm liking this model. It's a bit more grown up and looks to be more refined. And with 300 hp and 300 tq, it will be very fast. I'll be getting mine in about 2 years.
Also, I think the color on this video is terrible. I'll take mine in Toledo Blue with Black interior.
This is my dream car. Last year I put all my savings for years(have small sellary) to Z3 from 2001. It was the best possible spending of money, that I can imagine. I love those cars and I recommend them to everyone. If it will be possible to get this car for weekend or see how do they built them, please contact me BMW. Your best customer.
jeremy clarkson who's 1.95 tested the old z4 on top gear, and he seemed to fit fine in it. The new one probably will have better interior space, so shouldn't be a problem! :)
I dont like the new look at all, I drive an 05 z4 and i love the look of mine, but these looks just dont seem as attractive, and i love that mine has good trunk space compared to other convertibles like the saturn sky, now this new z4 probably doesnt have good space. Not saying it looks ugly, I think i just prefer the look of mine and the 06's and up a bit more than this one. i have heard alot of other z4 owners say the same too. and its not bcuz 2 girls designed it, its just the design.
will the 335i coupe fast so what do u Expect of the new z4 im sure it will be crasy fast and the handling even better.And there is something else guys is it gonna be faster than the old z4m will I think yes because already the the 335i faster than the old m3
Sure there are lots of little design details on this car that are cool, but once you see them all together at once the result just doesn't work. The only interesting thing about this car is that it's new.
if i was the engineer who designed the car i would slap the sh** out of you. This car puts the older z4 and z4m to shame. 300ft/lbs at 1400rpm makes this car able to take any 6cyl in its class. Add an autowerke ECU, exhaust,intercooler. This car would be beating the sh... out of the M3 and able to take the M5.
Are joking me? is this it??? the previous model was so much more sleaker, and aggressive. it had so much more sharper lines on the sides and it looked reazor sharp from the front!!! and from the end it looked like a butterfly from the rear. disappointed with this, it looks like a facelifted Honda S2000 from the rear. My god its not a BMW anymore :( .
I agree with you man, and it's not just this model, look at the new M-3, to put it it frank it's hideous, those Japaneese designers are turning BMW into Lexus. German no more. Hang Chris Bangle.
They ruined the old grill style (Grills are a huge car fetish for me for some reason, so that was a big negative in my book) and pus the rear "spoiler" (If you will) got reworked and is not as nice. For something that is going to go for 55k+ I'd rather get the nicer looking version for mid 20k used.
Its funny how I share the majorities feelings, but I have negative ratings towards my first comment. I dont care a bit, but its just interesting. I guess there are a few people who like cars that are appauling. I agree, I like M3s aot, but its a shame they cut the Z4 at the knees.

z3m's value keeps going up....z4m value is going down
Im sure it has a lot to do with the z4m has maybe less units but all of the cars are low miles
wheras the z3ms dont have as many low mile cars to chose from.
z3m is also a good bit quicker then the z4 m
