I'd rather drive a geo metro rather than a Z4 actually i'd rather drive a matrix rather than any german car. Germans are only good with making beer not cars.

Well I must say, I'm converted! The Z4 seems like a wonderful car, except for the headlights/taillights (seen em in person, still think so). But it's one hell of a machine, according to that article.

Oh and adaptive braking, it's about time!

Timeless designs are NEVER controversial.

This this is going to go down as one of the most hideous designs since the Edsel. The Aztec and Element are right behind the new Z4.

Any of you think it kinda looks like a Miata? That side view shot looks like a Miata with a body kit.

It looks like a paper Miata crumpled up and retrieved from the wastebasket. Face it, if this car had, say, "Pontiac" on it instead of the almighty BMW roundel, it'd be laughed off the streets, Or maybe parked next to its Aztec brothers.

Hey Jayhawker, people from Mesa aren't supposed to own cool cars, I'm told.

Nice Picts All, I just saw a Z4 while I was out to lunch, with the roof down the rolls bars are to say the least. I think the new loaded up Miata has nicer lines then the Z4. I would like to give a shout out the woman driving the Z4 you were I was quickly distracted from the cut up lines of the Z4

IMO the Z4 is and okay looking car, not bad. But I do find it very interesting the design of the side marker lights...very unique...I like.
