Oh god, I think I just peed a little. Until this day the Z3 M Coupe has been the only car that I would get besides the MINI (realistically), and now there is a Z4. Sweet mama jesus, i want one.

Should have a little over 333 horsepower from the E46 M3 power plant. I also read in Roundel that the E90 M3 V8 will fit in the Z4M.

I saw it at the NAIAS show in Detroit a couple of weeks ago and I think it looks even better in person. Can't wait til they come out with the M version though. It will surely be even more beautiful but will probably be a while since they are just coming out with the new version of the M Roadster

BMW announced both the regular Z4 coupe and the Z4 M Coupe (pictured above) this morning. Both will be on sale later this year.

Silver looks like the Aston Martin from the Bond flics, except for the BMW front grill. Should be a nice car, especially a couple of years down the road.

Maybe when I sell my condo I should get a M Coupe instead of a new home. I don't really need a house. I could be happy sleeping in my 2 room MINI/Mcoupe home couldnt I? My wife wouldnt be so happy though.

Anyone hear of any prices yet?

Will reserve final opinion until I see it in person, but I find many of the lines too complicated and unflattering and wish the "flame" surfacing would have been dropped or refined. I prefer more organic curves and sleek lines a la Aston Martin (those are such sexy cars - hope they keep it that way 'til I get one )

Just so happens that shot is the best angle of the car, nice and very Datsun Z from there.

Ah, didn't pay that much attention to the picture to see the ///M. Kinda surprised me that they are bringing out the M coupe so close to the release of the M roadster. The BMW folks at NAIAS around the Z4 Coupe concept of course acted like they were oblivious to anything about an M coupe

Nice work!
that car is one of the best looking car BMW has ever made, and when you add a 333hp M3 motor is everything a bimmer lover ever dreams of...

only if I had the money to get one!
