New BMW Build Configurator online today
I see that BMW have introduced a new online build configurator on their website today. It has a new look and feel but I have noticed a few errors when configuring the new Z4, eg choice of body colours. It seems to have been brought into line with the new WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure) Regulations with updated fuel consumption figures.

Tried I on my Android tablet. Real aukward to use, so got bored very quickly. Did establish that I prefer the new Zed in Alpine White with black wheels.

In a Black paint job I think it would look better with Cerium Grey wheels and kidney grill IMHO. I am a fan of the new Zed anyway and really like it in Misano Blue or SanFrancisco Red. Black wheels and grill look nice with the Red paint job. Cerium Grey with Misano Blue.

Yes, it would be a disaster if it came LHD. Pity that you don’t get the RHD option in the configurator.

That is a great colour.
The one BMW UK had when I went there a couple of weeks ago was in that blue - it's fantastic!
Roll on March.
Coupes because stunning!

Thanks for those words of encouragement Mr Tidy. I was unsure at first and had difficulty in deciding between San Francisco Red and Misano Blue. Looks like I made the right decision in the end. Really looking forward to March now. Will post some photos then.

I can’t seem to configure mine anymore! I ordered a Black Sapphire M40i with Ivory White leather, but the configurator doesn’t appear to offer that. Hope it still turns up with the correct spec come March...

There seems to be some teething problems with the new configurator as I mentioned in my original post. Don’t worry about it as I’m sure it will be fixed soon. I managed to select black paint but not the white leather, just like you.

What has I done.
I just showed that to my daughter, who has no BMWs in her life. Her first words on the matter. Oh that looks shocking.
