2007 BMW Z4 Photo Gallery

BMW showcased a coupe version of its Z4 roadster, with a surprise nod to production intent. Similarly, the Z3 had been given the coupe treatment, creating a wonderful handling machine available in M form that brought out the best of the platform's vehicle dynamics, with the bonus of enough luggage space for road trips. The car found a passionate audience, though its numbers were small. This "concept" revisits the formula once more, with the promise of a stiffer structure and more sporting manners. Motivation for this hatchback comes from a new magnesium-alloy 3.0-liter inline six that produces 265 horsepower, good for a claimed 5.7-second 0-60 mph sprint. Expect all the features and technology from the Z4 to transfer over to this all-season two-door. We would expect to see the Z4 Coupe for the 2007 model year; the age of the Z4 makes any later introduction unlikely.
