True, Z3coupé was brilliant. Maybe we need some time to get used to Z4 as to all latest Beemers..

I disagree I love this new Z4 coupe, and this the Z3coupe aged very rapidly. I cant wait to see this car take on the S2000 and 350Z on BMI. Well thats if it happens, it should do.

Sorry - but the old one was way better and had much more style......

I agree.

I'm in love with the older one - gives me goosebumps! I'm thinking of buying one this year since I've coveted it for so long. It's very masculine looking, but I still think I could drive it. It's always looked like a little c*ck to me!

i love this coupe. since the first time i saw it ive wanted it BADLY. but theres no way i could justify buying it over a corvette. its too expensive and way slower. even though the interior is way more badass....

Yeah the old one was just BAD. . . (as in the good bad

) .

A bit heavy compared to the standard Z4. If they made it a coupe, they could have removed some of the reinforcements from lower down, and thus brough overall weight down.

Although not sure how easy it would be to do something like this (a pain to redo a whole chassis design, eh?).

It looks quite nice tho'. Any word on trunk size?

that black and white picture of the rear corner is the most beautiful shot of the coupe yet..

I still say its just not aggresive enough to replace the Z3 coupe. BMW has tried to soften the design as much as they could by putting a more gently slopping rear on the thing but it makes it look too soft and mainstream.

The appeal of the Z3 was the fact that it didnt look like anything else on the road and still doesnt.

Its a beautiful thingVV
