I quite like them, it looks very aggressive, and fabulous from the rear.

Hmm, not sure until I see one in the metal - looks like its got a bit of a fat arse!

Can't see it being a big seller in the UK tho'. Current speculation is smallest engines will be 6 cylinders with prices starting from £34k!!!

That means that the new range starts with the equivalent of the current 3.0si, thats a big leap up from the current 2.0 which the the UKs best seller!
Current: 2021- G29 M40i, Sapphire Black & Black
Gone: 2010-2016 E89 23i, DSB & Ivory White
Gone: 2007-2010 E85 3.0si, Carbon Black

Remember when the current Z4 came out you could only get 2.5 or 3.0, the 2.2 and 2.0 came much later on (after they said they never would have a 4 cylinder) so I would expect more of the same, the smaller engines will come afterwards.

BMW ALWAYS release the bigger engines first on every model, so those who want it early spend a lot. Smaller engines come later...then the inevitable M. 3 Series coupe was the 335i and 325i, then the 330, then the 330d, 318, 320, and the rest of the diesels much later...

I really liked the previous shots, these are quite worrying. Front looks good but whats with that side profile...? Love the interior though

Looks quite a bit bigger than the current Z4...

If it was called the Z5 I'd be more open to liking it, but calling it a Z4 when the current one is THE Z4 just doesn't make sense to me :)
