Based on that silly little photo with bad lightning and bad angle I don't like the car. But I know this is bad photo so I will keep my opinion to myself a little longer.

Re: Official: The new BMW Z4 (E89)

hmmm
first of all, amazing shock after all this wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! finally!!!!! )

Second, no bad surprises at least.
But I thought the proportions of the front looked slightly not natural and needing getting used to, but I'll gladly wait for other pics.


The rear, what can be seen of it and from this angle, looks exactly like the Z3 (after the facelift).

Seeing this picture makes me think this is a Z3 witha different front! Of course, we can't see the roof, can't see the whole rear. But this pic captured the areas that look like a Z3 in the E89.

I think it looks like a big, fat and slightly dumb cartoon cat.

Re: Next generation BMW Z4 E89 - part II (first FEP pics incl. !!!)

I translated the text, it seems this is the "soft top" version!??!?
somehow I thought there'd only be a metal roof version. I think i'd be glad to take the soft top one if it means cheaper price (= choose the next bigger engine and a usable boot!!!


By the way, aren't the wheels too wide? it looks like they have spacers installed, as if they're aftermarket.

No surprizes here, we all know that you would say something like that.


Anyways, I think it looks super cool. Need to see more now, but this is a great scoop. Finally.

Eni: big wow ! When you made that, we all knew that already
I made the very same one.
