Someone who is connected to BMW and doesn't even know for that forum, told me same date for press release as Scott wrote on forum - in week between 3.11 and 7.11. So Scott gave us correct information, but looks like that BMW changed their plan.

Lets hope that tomorrow is this day
Yep, I know. I'm not blaming Eni or Scott. I'm sure somebody mixed things up at corporate. I'm sure they got smacked.

Tommorow would be nice.

It´s another failure for BMW Marketing team (not talking about EnI or Scott of course).

calme down, its not like someone has canceled christmas...
maybe you haven't got it by now, scott is more or less giving us(with his messages) a look behind the curtain - its a live version of "the making of z4 marketing stuff". till now nothing has been offical, not a single date. life doesn't always work as planed, especially in the automotive industry (...cs concept...). don't expect scott coming around just because some meetings decided to make some little changes here and there.

I was waiting for this release more than Christmas...

Sincerely it's a boy's dream for more than 13 years (1995 with the z3 in James Bond ) that will maybe become reality next year... so a true preview of this dream is indeed more than Christmas...

And since a message several weeks ago from Scott was "November 5 2008: Blur the boundaries", and last week a new message was "they decided to report it for a week", I would have find normal and respectful for all the fans that are here everyday to give some information today explaining why the release is not here and giving a new date... Or at least say: "I have no idea when will be the new date or I'm not allowed to say it, sorry..." and try to explain why, cause this silence really hard to understand...

In my opinion no one has to vindicate oneself. Most people have more to do, then posting some news about a car, that will be launched not until next year. And there are definitely more important things then that.
I can absolutely understand, that there are no new informations about the Z4.
And it will not be the end of the world, if there aren't news before next week or before the next month.

now you know, always take messages/dates with a grain of salt.
frustration won't make you change anything
personally i would have also wanted to see it by now, but it is as it is...

...its the silence before the storm

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

BMW have more serious things to focus on right now - financial/money. You all know its more or less panic around the world these days. Release a new model is probably not a priority right now. You cant predict the future and not many saw all these problems we are seeing right now in the world.

My two cents.
