I have no problem with the camo, concentrate on the shifts in lighting and the shape is there but it is quite hard to tell how much is added beneath to confuse.

My eyes are getting dizzy from looking so intensely at this camo

I painted the visible structures quick and dirty to get a feel for it. The design feature that most stands out for me (in addition to the obvious ones) and that I haven't seen in any CGI before is the design of the front fenders...they seem to be pronounced very well...almost a reference to classic roadsters and very attractive ..

But maybe my eyes are tricking me and wishful thinking is taking over

Yes there will be one, but obviously it will hit the market 1-2 years after the debut of the cabrio. The Z4-35i will be one hell of a car which will force Porsche to significantly up it's power for the Boxster. I wonder if the M version will get the full wrath of the 420hp V8, but I guess that BMW don't want the M3 to suffer so we might just see a Tii version with 360hp or something.

Quoting Scott from old thread:

The Z4 is based on the E90 3er line, and therefore isn't a completely new car like the F01, F10 and F13 are.

Hmm, we are really not sure what BMW is going to do (if there will be a coupe version or not). Maybe they decide there will be a coupe version, but slightly different looking and named Z5 rather than Z4
But from what I can see so far, BMW will be crazy not to make a Z4 coupe. Z3 and Z4 coupe have both been great image builders, and Z4 coupe sells pretty well.

Oh, and rumors right now say 3.0 I6 TT engine AND 420 hp 4.0 V8.
