Buying the New Z4

Unless there is a M with the M3s V* in it I cant see it changing it- its going to be a downgrade from my M.

I believe BMW said there was not going an M in the outgoing version, but it came. And i believe a coupe (after thought ) was never on the cards either, but it came

So based on that, there WILL be an M

If a fully equipped "S-Drive 3.5" costs $70k, how much would an M cost? I can't see spending that much.

In US you have really cheap cars... Fully loaded sDrive35i in EU costs 80.000 EUR which is 112.000 USD.

Probably there won't be a Coupe given that E89 has a hard top and E86 had very poor sales figures. I'm quite sure there will be an M version.. But I'm not sure how much heavier it will be. Ah, sure it will have another silly turbo engine.. wait a minute, is that an X5 M? Oh no it's E89 M...

I want a light weight, high revv sports car... Oh, I already have! Bye bye E89

I'm pretty sure there will be an M version despite what BMW says. They will repeat themselves like they did with the E85/86.

And I'm sure they'll squeeze in an engine that will satisfy the "0-60 chasers" type. It'll just be a bloody fast cruiser, and not much of a nimble Sports Car.

The only way I'll even remotely consider the E89 is if they DO come out with a dedicated Coupé.

The coupe will be heavier! How cna they ever lighten up this car, short of giving back the rag top!

How do you know the coupe will be heavier?

 

[Erhan]

Well Coupe will have a metal roof, so is the convertible hard top... And you won't have the hard top motor.. So I won't be surprised if Coupe version comes out lighter.
