I think the photo was still a bit squashed... Will look more like this in terms of proportion... Consider the licence plate proportion here... looks OK I think...

The new Z4 looks awesome. I'm itching to see more real life shots of it though.

Much doubt it. Cannot understand fascination with soft-tops. Hard-top experience in E93 says ragtops are of the past. Tiny downside - maybe a bit more weight. Big upsides: security, sound dampening, looks.

Audi seems to be sticking with cloth roofs for their convertibles. I understand the new A5 cabrio is a soft top, with the option to have further sound deadening materials in the lining.

It is a photograph by a camera, definitely not by a scanner.

I thought I saw one this saturday. It was in Nashua NH. I was on my way to the mall and I saw a 2 seater bimmer drive by(opposite direction). It caught my eye because it was like 30 degrees out and this guy an older gentleman had the roof down. I did'nt get a good look at it but I'm pretty sure it was the Z4.

Agree totally, and I love this ride!! Whack on some 19s and contrasting leather, and it'll be a chick-magnet!

Agreed again! Ragtops are for Caterhams or other such 'super light weight' vehicles, and not for relatively mainstream rides!
