Thanks guys, hopefully the production version wont be too watered down, I had a play on photoshop to see what the front end looks like, very jaguar F-type, in a good way!

Side lines look very similar to the connected drive roadster concept.

Thankfully, they didnt keep the front end!

Seems a bit of a shame they've lost the line coming over the front wheel arch going down to the door handle from both Z4's before, that was always my favourite bit of styling from these cars.

Also, perhaps it's the obscured photo but the headlights shout 'Kia' to me more than 'BMW', Or is it those new Peugeot things? I don't know they all look the same :?

This is my favourite line also, very unique.

But I will bite my tongue about this new one until I see it!

:wink: Very nice, but then I'm biased as it's an F Type :wink:
They seem to be going with the same line up of a 2 .0 4 cyl and 3 6 cyl, which should give them the low Co2 market and sports car with larger engine
