The best feature has to the 'bottom volume control'. Every car should have one.

Looks like a Kia from the front. The rear is nice though. It'll take time to get used to the side profile especially with the roof up.

Sorry but that is Horrid.
Especially the side profile/ wheel base. The rears need to go back by about 4 inches.
Not a fan of the front end either.

It’s not doing much for me at the moment, hopefully I’ll learn to like it.
On a more positive note some of the technical spec looks great, It should drive really well. I might even ask for a test drive when it eventually comes out - even though I couldn’t afford one if I did want one.

I think its a good looking car. Definately recognizeable as a Z4.
But imho 1500kg is still too heavy, it should be sub 1400kg. Helps agility.
And no manual.... if it would have one, it would be half way towards that 1400kg target (not often mentioned, but that 8 speed is superheavy for a gearbox)

Still not floating my boat. Hopefully at some point they will turn the engine up a lot. May be then.

Love the cockpit and the hood. Sat in an M850i recently and the interior is really similar - looks like there's a "full" leather option too.
I like the overall look but agree about the side profile. It was telling that the designer said (in Autocar) that it was difficult to get the front right due to pedestrian safety regs - it's very compromised compared to the . I also think that having the driver sat further forward is going to do wonders for the perceived handling and ride comfort of the car (especially compared to the E85/E86).

I'm not seeing anything particularly "wrong" with the side profile... Looks are always subjective.
