I was on 287 and spotted a BMW that I have never seen before. It looked very new, but had a classy look to it. It looked nothing like any other model I have seen. Just wondering if anybody knew what model this was or if hes on the forums? The car looked very nice btw.

GREAT description! :rofl:

How about some more information?

Was it a 2-door, 4-door, hatchback, wagon, or what?

Did it have a low and sleek look to it or was it larger and bulkier?

Its hard to describe. Its small and sleak. I believe a 2 door. Its not and e36, e46, e30 e21, 2002. It looked pretty rare. Like I said, I have never seen it before. It didnt have the typical bmw look. It looked a little more exotic.

Well thanks for all the great help but I found it. It was a Z8. Not sure what year or anything else on it, but it was pretty nice.

Saying it was a convertible would have helped a LOT.

its pretty popular in LA and along the coast of Cali. Used to live in San Luis Obispo and there were two I see at least 2 times a month.

I have seen 3
one in NY state at the wal-mart parking lot.
Two Mid town manhatten
Three on Rt-46

They are cool looking. Not alot of them where sold In the NE I would think. As the other guy said it seems more like a cali car.
