Remember these pics are from BMW. But the car is not the final production version, it's still a concept. I believe the final version will definately get the facelift. I really hope that for example the front bumber will be a better one.

I like it, just waiting for the M version :cool

In the pics it has 19" wheels and BMW has reported the time from 0 to 100km/h (0-62.5mph) in 5.7 seconds for the 3.0 model.

The M Coupé is sure a true icon in car design etc. etc. but this looks good also ;)

What BMW wants to tell you about the car: http://www.autoweek.com/files/specials/2005_frankfurt/z4coupe/z4coupe_info.doc

Name of the color is Glacier Silver, it is developed exclusively for the concept car they say...

I love it. Needs a little M, though

Not bad. I still have some issues with it (the "flame" surfacing still looks a little confused, and the hood is just too flat and plain, I don't like any of the new BMW too clean and antiseptic interiors), but it's not that bad. Almost good even, which is the nicest thing I've said about any of the newer designs.

I first said that in my opinion the production model will get a facelift.
But when I think about it, the concepts of M3 CSL and M5 E60 look really the same as the real cars so maybe I was wrong about it...
Check out this side profile pic from Frankfurt, those wheels are huge:

Foick! BMW still knows what to do when they set their minds to it.
This car reminds me of a mini Ferrari.

WOW, that looks great. I've always liked the Z4, much much more than any of bangles other designs and I love the Z3 coupe. I'm simply hoping the facelift of the Z4 helps the nose of it, i just dislike the grill, it seems a little off to me. but apart from that i think its a nice car.

now I think i would consider that Z4 coupe over a porsche caymen, and that is a car i would really love. Plus I would think it would be cheaper too. looks tight, make it BMW! and bring it to the states, i guess they'll want to see how the caymen sells, i think merc is coming out with a competitor to that car too, a new class of car it seems, introducted by the Z3 coupe.

As an owner of 2005 Z4 3.0i, I love the horizontal line running from the headlights, dipping around the driver compartment, return to the rear tail....I hope the Z4 coupe successfully integrates that line with the hardtop dip to the tail.

My Maldives Blue Z4, gets looks and POSITIVE comments everywhere I go.....Best boost to the ego I've seen....Maybe try a Boxster next to see if it can rival the positive EMOTIONAL response seen while driving my Z4....

later,

feeling it. . .what's more is the addition of the well-proportioned Hoffmeister kink - its absence bugs me on the Z3 coupe.

I know it is only a concept right now, but when do you think they will release the z4 coup or z4 m coupe? Ive been reading and seeing them label it as the "2006 z4 coupe" but is it really coming out next year?? thanks

According to Autocar, the coupe will be released next spring, along with the new Z4 M. The latter will debut at the Detroit Auto show.

Car and Driver has pic from Frankfurt show, and says

"It was built as a concept car, but we fully expect BMW to create a hardtop version of the z4 in the mid-2006. the coupe concept looks far bettter than the convertible z4, and the matte-metallic paint on the concept looks terriific.

the roofline is reminecent of the 6-series coupe, but the z4 coupe will be a hatchback. initially expect the z4 coupe to come with the 255hp, 3.0 liter inline-six and later with the current m3's 333hp 3.2L enigine.

the price for the 255hp coupe is expected to be about $35,000 and the M version about $45,000, a price that undercuts Porches 291hp Cayman-S by more than $10,000." :redspot

I really like it alot, put me down for a M Z4 coupe

d you think it will handle as well as the z3Mcoupe

Z3speed4me
11-04-2005, 11:01 PM
if the ///M coupe were 45 wit the s54 or higher i would be VERY interested...since the z3 m coupe was like 45,900 if i remember when it came wit the s54

I always struggled with getting an E36 M Roadster or M Coupe, but opted for an 02 Roadster.
Not being a fan of the Z4, I can honestly say that the coupe has changed my p.o.v. on this line.
I wonder if they'll do a two engine lineup as with the E36 M Roadsters/Coupes or just stay with the S54.
The roofline suffers from the same acute angles as the Cayman--no sunroof possible.
Not that it matters much.

Wow, that car is very very ugly.

When will BMW break-out of that design rut?
