7th November...

[Z4 Beemer]

So the motoring journos have had their hands on it out in Portugal, but their reviews are apparently under embargo until 7th November. This tweet made me laugh... must be reading the comments on here...



Wonder how it will drive tho?

Well I hope the reviews are good since I've got one on order

Finding it a bit strange how they're doing things, as the configurator went live a few weeks ago the same time as order books opened. But still no official price list/ brochure and an embargo on reviews...

With the roof down I think the car in that grey is actually not too bad (looks very similar to a 2014-ish SL). I did not think I'd be saying that. :?

Frozen Grey II metallic... an £1,880 option on the 3.0i M Sport and M40i...

I’m starting to wonder if BMW are expecting low sales of this car... The 2.0i M Sport is only available in 4 colours: black, white, red or blue... :?

I have to say that its growing on me - Its unlikely i will change as a £15k (ish) hit and only 8k miles in my current car during two years would be a bit silly for me. Then there's the price of the new one? The configurator said about £54k - So its not going to happen just yet!

2 days away until we find out what the reviewers think...
I personally like that grey colour

Same. The body lines look stronger and make the car appear less slab-like.

Great review there well spotted and as the clock ticks over to midnight it's now the 6th of November so hopefully more will be revealed his very day. The future is certainly feeling good. Just needs to look as good as it feels. Role on seeing one n the metal.

That's a pretty favourable review; not found anything else online yet though...

I wonder where they've put the roof motor :roll:

Maybe in the sump this time? Keeps it well lubed.

So is a M Sport differential a LSD??

Burgy100's link is a pretty full on review, that is out there all ready. So 6 or 7 not important. It's out there.

I must be going mad as I'd convinced myself it was today the embargo is released. Could not work out why nothing was coming up on Google!

Tomorrow it is then...
