Just how much of a posing t*sser do you have to be to want this car? The Merc isnt know as the SLGay for nothing.
Welcome to PH. Ever driven a new SLK? Perhaps the previous SLK55? Not a bad car actually.Warick Hunt said:

Welcome to PH. Ever driven a new SLK? Perhaps the previous SLK55? Not a bad car actually.My guess is, he yearns for such a car.
would like to see it in black or red not grandad beige but it lacks character. I didnt like bangles other stuff but the z4 was well good, especially in coupe form which is the dogs imho. as for the roof i hate it...its a sports car for c sake and it should be light weight with true soft top. Looks way too soft now.
I wonder if or when they are going to do a coupe version of the new car...?
Have just been considering a nearly new Z4 coupe, but there's a limited amount available as it would appear they have stopped making them as a result of the new Z4 coming out, but there's no mention in any of the press blurb about whether BMW are going to make a coupe or not of the new car

Not doing one according to evo - the folding hard top on the new one makes it obsolete it would seem.Have just been considering a nearly new Z4 coupe, but there's a limited amount available as it would appear they have stopped making them as a result of the new Z4 coming out, but there's no mention in any of the press blurb about whether BMW are going to make a coupe or not of the new car
There was a black pre launch model parked in the paddock at Silverstone on Saturday. I accept that styling is subjective, but in the metal and in black, the car looks aggressive. Parked next to the outgoing Z4 Roadster, it makes the old car look dated. It attracted quite a bit of attention on Saturday and regularly had clumps of people around it.
Photographing a beige car against a concrete wall of the same colour was never going to do the car any favours.
Perhaps you should reserve judgement until you see one in the flesh... then by all means fire away.

The current Z4 coupe has quite a useful load area with good access via the hatch,......whereas a folding roof hard top has feck all usuable space in comparsion.
And I don't want a sodding roadster
Oh well, back to the drawing board

Cannot beleive the weight of the new Z4 and the 0-60 times seem mighty quick considering. I've never timed my coupe but I swear the 0-60 is sub 4.7
TBH it looks like they have taken a step back from the old Z4 and its lost its edge. Will definatly appeal to the opposite sex. I won't be rushing out to get one, unless the make an V8 M version. Which won't happen due to cost margins.. Going by these prices an M version would be a basic 47K.. GULP.. Granted my coupe was 47K new but that was full loaded..

Read this after I posted. Hi Andy, looks like we both shared the same view on it. much better in the flesh.Photographing a beige car against a concrete wall of the same colour was never going to do the car any favours.

I wonder what its like to drive and if they have improved the boot size?

I hear rumours that its great fun to drive, has far less scuttle shake than the outgoing model, less wind noise, the boot is huge with the roof up and will take two sets of golf clubs (should you be of that persuasion). With the roof down there is still a fair bit of boot space (similar to the old Z3), but access is restricted. Apparently
