The ugliest Bangle butt yet.

Giving it a 6-Series profile doesn't seem to help a bit.

It's ugly.

Honestly, just wait for the 1 series to come out and do the V8 swap that's available for it.

Heh, I kind of like it more than the convertible. Still not the greatest looking car, but an improvement. I like the body creases. They need to redo the front end badly.

I still wouldnt buy it though. There are other cars in its class that I would rather have.

The Z4 is one of the worst looking cars, quite frankly, ANYTHING, sold to people. This coupe looks just as bad.

Its a HORRIBLE design. PERIOD. Its a mess.

I have always loved the interior, it looks great. A shame the exterior is sad.

And reading reviews, the handling is not great either for a 2 door sports car. This will get its *** handed to it by the Boxster/Caymen past/present/future.


The Z3 was
