[german-speed-demon]

I read in C&D that BMW plans to buuild a baby z4, codenamed the z2. Any pics you guys can find? They say target price range is $30,000 or under.

Here's a link witha little blurb and an artist rendering, the one in c&d was better, but this will do i guess

I like the headlights.... but... MUST HAVE HARD TOP.

[german-speed-demon]

I agree. Perhaps a hartop and a roadster version?

I read about it in auto week. Here is the story.

I hope they don't make the front so bulbous like in the red artists impression. It'd look too much like the Z3s of the past which, when compared with the beautiful z4s, aren't the prettiest things ever.

Funny, sales and the general consensus are exactly opposite.

Z4 sales are roughly HALF of what z3 sales used to be, this year they are tracking roughly 11k z4's.. vs 30k/yr z3's at the z3's peak.


Bring back the z3.

I never claimed that Z4s sold better.. just design wise the Z4 is beautiful and the Z3.. well.. it's alright.

Either way, I'm sure the z2 will be sex.
