Default New 2010 Z4 spy shots!

Lots of camo but it looks like they may have smoothed out the rear end and lengthened it nicely.You could chip the 335i version and have a 0-60 4 second drop top hopefully for in the low 40's!

Hmm, I'm not sure if the Z4 needed to be any bigger than it already is. Maybe BMW is making room for a new smaller roadster to come though. It looks like it has a retractable hard top - I wonder what it will weigh now - it looks heavy. The nose at least looks better.

The armor plating adds to the heavy as a tank look of this prototype.
"Our spies noted as much as 2-3 inches of dead space between the plastic panels and the actual bodywork."
I think this car could look phenomenal and I'm hoping it does.

Too hard to tell good or bad. But I am one of the few who really likes the current one in the right color.

There are two things you can count on in life.
1- The sun rises in the east
2- The BMW will weight way too much

The Z4 is gone and won't be made any more after 2008. The new car is expected to have the new M3 V8 and a carbon fiber roof. It will weight the same as the new car but will have 400+hp. The car will be moved up market and cost more.

The 135i is taking the place of the Z4.
