I saw this on another forum, but there was no information accompanying it. Anyone know anything about it. It certainly looks the part.

Gorgeous! That's all I have to say.

So, I read the advertisement for BMW-Motorsport.com, and thought hmmmm. What do you know....

Looks a bit like a Porsche with enhanced olfactory capabilities :p:

Note to self: If your trademark grill looks like nostrils, you shouldn't make any part of your car look like a giant schnauz.

€ 250,000 (plus VAT).

YIKES!

Not a fan of the looks, but I would LOVE to drive that thing on a track.

They made an M Coupe version of the Z3 coupe, and the later ones are very capable cars. I can only imagine what they've done to this, to make it so expensive, but I'm sure it would be a blast to drive on the track.

SoFL_RX8 02-28-2006 09:15 PM

They are going to release a M4, and shortly after a Z4 coupe, then shortly after that the M4 coupe.
Check out the front page of bimmerforums.com, they have links to articles on both.
The M4 coupe makes me drool.

nSanity 02-28-2006 09:31 PM

They are bringing out a M version of the Z4, maybe this has something to do with that? Due out after the new M3

In fact, its gonna be M Coupe (hard top like the M version of the Z3)... i'll need to do some research into this cos that looks badass

we're supposed to get the M6 late this year. followed by the M Coupe, which is a Z4 hardtop/hatchback powered by the S54 motor found in the E46 M3. the new M3 (E90) will not be out for awhile. they haven't even made a two door version of the 3 series yet. there are rumors of an M version of the 2 series, but the states will designate it as a 1 series. that won't be for awhile too. we did just get news of an alpina edition of the E65 7 series which will be pushing out 500hp from a supercharged V8. that should be available very very soon.

i work at a BMW dealership, if you were wondering

BMW in my book=No. But I have to say it looks better than the ones I see on the street.

panoz want to be???? i dont know if i like it or not.

beers :beer:

The price difference between this car and the M Coupé equals roughly 190.000 €, while the power diference equals roughly 60 HP.

There are many many things I'd rather want than this car.

BlueEyes 03-01-2006 12:08 AM

It's a race car, and is priced like a race car. You won't find a race car which can compete where this will compete for much less.

That's one damn fast clown shoe. And I mean that in a good way.

BlueEyes 03-01-2006 01:14 AM

I've been searching everywhere for more details about it, but there is nothing out there. I'd like to know what that 250k gets me in the electronics department.

I did see one blurb that said it might make its way over to ALMS, which would be nice to see.

The new RS4 owns the E90 M3 in every catagory......BMW better watch their back.

BlueEyes 03-01-2006 10:39 AM

How do you know? you don't know anything about the E90 M3.
