- Will be presented in January in Detroit
- 10 cm longer
- Hardtop
- Only Roadsters, no more coupes
- No M-version
- Introduction engines: 3,0 with 272 and 306 hp

Sounds OK, they always say no ///M don't they. I read an internet rumour that the 3.0 twin turbo would be more than 306, and that it would be LA in November, but who knows :idunno:

LAst night at the banquet they rolled in the Last Z4 made in Spartenburg USA Next gen will be made in Germany should be a 2010 model. and according to the info I could get it seems the car will still be called Z4 though it will be the "Next Generation"

There will be 2 versions of the Z4:

First Generation is what we drive: 2003~2008 Z4 Roadsters, Coupe and M. The last Z4 rolled off the Spartanburg, SC plant last week. It is done. No more will be produced in the US.

Second Generation will be built in Germany. The official launch date has not been announced but will be very soon. The BMW Mfg people would not divulge anything more than that.

Funny that it will still be called Z4 - I still get people asking if mine's the "new Z3."
