The New BMW Z4
 

I got to test drive one today..This car is a real upgrade from the Z3..i drove the 3.0l model.. It's quite a bit larger than the Z3 and handles great.The car looks better in real life than the pictures of it..the front end might take a bit to get used too,but overall at 48k sticker i give it a :thumbsup http://www.mintesbabes.com/0328_main.gif

i'm not a fan of the styling

*shrug*

i have seen too many bitches with rich husbands driving the Z3 that I hate it........ :glugglug

I think it's a big improvement - much beefier looking, and less "chick car."

i'm a fan of the new 7 series :winkwink:

I don't have the dimensions..but the car appeared much wider than the Z3 and the one i drove had 17" wheels giving it a real solid feel..
I am not buying one..Just reporting on it
My M3 is actually ahead of schedule..they are saying now mid to late feb.:)

the newest BMW designs are kind of ugly.

All new cars are

I don't know, I kinda like the look of the Z4. A lot better then the typical boring BMW sedans I will say that much.

i really like the M3. it's the only BMW i'd consider buying, other than the Z8...

The z4 does look pretty nice.

I must say I was waiting to here about a test drive. I was going to upgrade my car but the way BMW works. You buy the Z4 and six months later a Z4.1 comes out. They dont even let you have a full year without bringing in a new model and decreasing your car value.
A true piss off. Once my lease is almost up I am going to get rid of the Z3 and go for the new Lexus covertables.

The Z4 looks a lot more like the Lexus than the Z3 did..the 3..is such a small car..were the 4 is considerably larger.. I was surprised by the 0-60 performance..not twin turbo..but quite quick..The brakes on the 4 are very good.. It was too cold to run it with the topdown..but the dealer mentioned that the new styling quieted down the wind noise quite a bit..

Hey Sniper,
The Lexus 430 convertible is amazing. I just leased one just few days ago.
I got sex twice this week (amazingly unusual) with two different chicks. Met both of then on a red light :winkwink:

You are so correct. I used to like the Accord Coupe but this new design looks like a RSX knock-off (RSX is pretty ugly too).

The only sub-$90000 production cars in USA that I like now are the Corvette, Viper (sort of), and the all-mighty NSX.

Mitsubishi should never stopped making the 3000GT. Toyota shoudl never of stopped making the Supra.

I have a 1978 530i. It's rusted to shit, and looks like hell, but it runs great. Never had problem with it. Well, except getting laughed at.

Yeah the Z4 is interesting, my dad is looking at it for next spring, but im trying to talk him out of it... too small, even tho its his midlife crissis car.. maybe a regular 3series convertible would be nice..

lol

the automotive press has described BMWs recent styling changes as "curious" and "confusing." these cars run & handle great, but they're getting pretty ugly.

i hope they don't fuck up the looks of the 5 series when it is revamped.

hey BMW, GFY!

Forget about the BMW, I'd rather drive my caddy Escalade!:thumbsup

I'd hit it

The automotive press are morons. As someone with a mechanical engineering and design background I can honestly say what Chris Bangle is doing is a design revolution.

My three year old kid thinks everything but coco puffs and pizza tastes like crap. Does it mean it tastes like crap or that his palette isn't developed enough to appreciate it?

hurry up and switch that car pic with a pic of you minte

its a girlie car,, i put that in the same as the mazda miata

hahaha

she wants to kick my ass though on another board :winkwink:

I do?
I thought I wanted to lick it...

shhhh...i know there are a lot of guys around here HOT for you..and i didn't want to burst their bubble

i have no idea what you're talking about

I drive a Ricer and have 2.5 children


:1orglaugh

That car is for a $30k a year millionaire.

I like the 7 series.

My new Ferrari 360 should be here soon.

Your nick should be Brad Showoff

:Graucho

the 7 series is an old mans car..

real money drives the Enzo..

I am broke, and old. Well 27 and feeling old.

Show off? Do not think I have ever posted one of my 7 cars photos here.

i got one word for ya.


MAYBACH

Hooper, you show off!

Maybach ain't the same league compared to BMW. I would recommend ya'll to check out the newest BMW film starring the new Z4. Pretty slick car ... however, I am not a big fan of convertibles.

Personally, I can't wait for the 760 to hit the shelves, that car's gonna be a real beast.


quiet, what speaks against the M5 ?

The new movie is called "Hostage" and can be downloaded here


:thumbsup

745i Rollin on 22 HRE's! Probably one of the only 4 doors that can take 22's without rolling the fenders!

indeed

Killer car and pic is that your?

its still a penis-mobile.

u know...like ace and gary

nice. there's a 4 year waiting list for the 360 spyder here in Canada. the hardtop, i'm not sure.

the 360 spyder is hands down my favorite sports car.

2 door cars suck!

Die.

Bah -- long live hard tops. I've never been a fan of convertibles and spyders.

okay. i don't think you have much to worry about, most cars are hardtops.

after the first time i drove a convertible thru a deserted mountain pass on a summer evening - i was hooked. i love the open air experience. i would never buy a sports car that wasn't a convertible.

that's just me :)

WHat do you drive now, beside the S2000 ?
