It says concept car, but it looks like 99.9% of what the Z4 coupe will be if/when its launched.
Looks good to me, the coupe shape fits the Z4 very well. A million miles better than the Z3 coupe  . Apparently it has the 3.0 engine, with the production car maybe having an M model to go up against the Porsche Cayman coupe.
New front and back lights are supposed to show the Z4 facelift coming soon.

The Z4 looks far better as a coupe than the previous convertable, but meh. The M3 coupe looks much nicer IMO, the shark head Z4 has always seemed clumsy for a BMW roadster.

think it comes all the way to the seam on the ream quarter. kind of like the hood on a mini. probably looks pretty cool when it's opened.
most auto makers have given up on the trunk key, it's usually handled with a button on the drivers door or the keyfob.

Very nice, and this is coming from a HUGE Z3 Coupe fan. My only question is, "what took them so long?!"

I always liked the Z3 better than the Z4 (the convertable, of course, not the "coupe" version), and while this is a really pretty car, I'd still take a Z3 (convertable) over it.

The double bubble type ridge in the roof is nice, the whole back end of the car has been done very well. Apart from colour and trim, is the interior the same as the Z4 convertible?

Very similar to the interior of my current Z4 roadster. Differences are all show-car type stuff (e.g. leather on the dash, aluminum pedals, matching luggage).
I was never a fan of the Z3 coupe, but I'm really liking the Z4 version.

I'd really like to know what the green Jeep-thing was doing when the accident occurred-it looks like the Jeep driver was the one that caused the accident. AND got the messier end of the stick for his trouble.

Looks like the off-roader (it's not a Jeep, for sure) driver was reversing out of the parking bay. BMW-girlie was driving too fast down the access "road" and yapping to her mate, so ended up hitting the 4x4.

Or the off-roader tried to make a left turn directly in front of the BMW. I've seen way too many people in SUVs and supposedly off-road vehicles act like they're in low-to-the-ground roadsters and try to do stupid things you shouldn't do in a sedan, so I have to admit I'm biased in favor of the ladies.

What is it about staunch right wing ideologues and saying things that are simultaneously offensive, narrow-minded, and ridiculous?

Narh, I don't reckon so. If the off-roader was making a left he'd have some lateral momentum towards the Beemer which would have offset the hit so he probably wouldn't have ended up on his side - at least not so "neatly".... ...and with such momentum the front of the Beemer wouldn't be so close to the underside of the 4x4. That's a straight t-bone IMHO.

"Offensive"?
"BMW-girlie" is offensive?
"Narrow minded"?
"Ridiculous"?
Because people have never caused car accidents by yapping to their mates, have they?

Does anyone have a 350z? I got mine about 3 months ago instead of going into debt for the rest of my life getting a Porsche or an M3 or something of that nature. But, in 3 or 4 years this could be a fantastic "next" car.
