Anyone heard of any planned launch events at their local dealerships as all seems low key to my knowledge?

I had an invite to a ‘VIP Event’ at the dealership I use, but that was just to flog some stock I think - they did mention the Z4 but not that they had one...

I think the new 3 Series and new Z4 are being launched on the same day 9th March. Since the 3 Series is the much bigger seller I think it will take priority and the Z4 will just be an added attraction.

Could be wrong but that is just my opinion.

I've asked a few dealerships and they all give me the same answer that more information will be released closer to the time. Maybe I'm just not welcomed anywhere :rofl:

The Z4 launch cars are already in the UK waiting on distribution by BMW. My local dealer in Scotland is getting three of them, presumably 20i, 30i and M40i. Also waiting on a call when they arrive.

I am attending a launch at my local dealer mostly out of curiosity, 9th March is when the event is. Apparently a few days after their demonstrator arrives.
2006/56 Z4MC now sold!

2015/65 F Type R Coupe AWD arrived!

I'm unable to get to any events for the launch so pictures would be ideal.

Is that at Dick Lovett, Cribbs ?
If so thats quite ironic that ive been in touch with them recently, test drove an E89 4 months ago and was promised a call as soon as they knew when they were getting one in.
......I've heard nothing from them !

(Not to mention organising 2 meets with them that brought in about fifty Z4 owners ! )
