Tigera, OT, but I believe the Z3 launched (at least in Europe) WITHOUT 6 cylinder engines. The only available engines were an 1.8 and 1.9 4 cylinder. BMW later admitted that was a big mistake.

Watch out. On this pic we can clearly see the rear lights shape, a mix between the Z3 and Z4 ones.

Yeah that's the most detailed pic till now. Well the interior looks much better than the Z4's.
I also noticed the seats in the last pic (although these may have been in previous pics too), wow these are huge hugging seats, a sign that the car is aiming another market than the Z4 till now.
This thing looks good.

Picture number 4: watch the tip of the headlight, at the leftmost part of the picture, (meaning the right headlight).
I love how the engine cover and the top of the headlight meet at a sharp angle and not a flowing surface. This gives it agressivity, and makes a front that is very different from the actual Z4.

It's more like 6er meets facelifted Z3.
While the front is variation on facelifted E90 3er headlights ... with a hint of Z3 (the below-"eyebroye" part).
Actually the whole front (bonnet, headlights, bumper / intake) is 3er FL inspired, or vice versa.

Btw, headlights on this CGI are indeed very similar to ones on E89 Z4 (although the real ones are slightly bigger / taller, and feature the stylized "eyebrow"):

Actually the whole interior is very CS Concept- inspired (seats, panels / trim, A/C controls etc).
With some features from the current Z4 (like pop-up iDrive display etc). Central tunnel & NAVI / Hi-Fi unit is known from other contemporary BMWs (e-shifter, Drive select buttons, e-Parking brake, new iDrive controller, etc).
