3rd gen G29 BMW Z4 (2019-202X)

[Mr. M]

I wouldn't be surprised if the Z5 took styling cues from the Z4 Zagato concept.

Why do we know more about the next Z5 design than the Supra??

 

[gymratter]

i never thought of it that way, but it would make sense if the "Z5" was influenced by Z4 Zagato concept.

how so? we havent even seen an "official" concept from BMW.

That Zagato Z4 has some Honda CRZ in its rear. The Z5 sketch looks MUCH better.

 

[gymratter]

Yeah that makes sense.

It'll be interesting to see where it fits in, especially if it's another car along the lines of the AMG-GT.

or the Z4 nameplate will live on?

 

[Scino]

Guys. Remember this?

 

[black-supra]

The hood and fenders do look FT-1ish. However, from the A pillars to end its just screaming M4 IMO.

Of all the BMW's concepts I think the BMW Zagato Coupe resembles FT-1 the most.

Really wish we'd start getting more news from TOYOTA about this joint development rather than BMW.

If rumors of the Supra being 2018 earliest it is no surprise BMW wont be showing it so early. I'm sure the two companies have roughly coordinated schedules for when to show their respective cars considering development is still ongoing.

I'm thinking there may be details about the platform that wont be shared until both cars are released.

Post everything related to the BMW version here!

Finally the Z4 prototype was spotted in testing

I'm surprised they went back to a soft top.

After seeing the new sets of photos I think it looks pretty big. Larger than the current Z4 for sure. I'm guessing BMW wants a F type or SL competitor?

I'm surprised they went back to a soft top.

They needed to because the Z4 is a pig of a car for a roadster. It needed to drop weight to get better.

Hopefully this means Toyota will start testing the the Supra soon too and let us see a mule

Looks like an S2000 from the side. And totally bland compared to the Supra concept. It's too bad Toyota wasn't testing their own version together with BMW in these pics.
