Saw a Z34 in Wanchai CarPro showroom. Will try to take some pics. Or you go to take a look? The same space they put their Orange R35 before.

I shall hold my breath and make sure I don't buy one.

Yes, the Z4 look has beated the aging SLK badly.

Guess European cars don't avoid the '4' (死 )digit like Japanese.

The production E85 Z4 launched in 2003, and it's been only 6 years. It is kind of a facelift + some remodelling rather than a new generation of the Z.

I thought it's just a normal facelift. Is there really a big change to the chassis? How come it's called Z34 now?

little_croco · 01-08-2009, 02:09 AM

Z34 in Wanchai...

I asked Chili about the 'new Z4', I also think it is just a facelift.
A new generation Z4 normally deserves a road show something.
But this new baby seems to come quietly.

watch out for any road show again in Ocean Terminal... or perhaps BMWHK already spent all their money in renovating their TKW showroom...

It is a new generation of Z4 (E89) replacing the older/existing ones (E85/E86). Manufactured out from Germany, instead of US. This new roadster features a completely revamped interior and exterior, a retractable hardtop, iDrive, and an optional 7-speed DCT. It is longer, wider, and is heavier compared to the previous generation Z4.

THX Albert. A very good link.
The muddy water is clear.
It has some elements similar to the original design concept of SLK.
They both project the memory of some vintage sports models.
The beautiful new Z4 is obviously more advanced.
My last chance to consider a roadster, shall give a serious thought.
Please let me know when will it be launched to HK
Guess the 35i flagship will cost 700K++ with iDrive.?
