Spied: E89 BMW Z4 with the upcoming M-Sport package in Space Gray

samuraisaiyo · 10-29-2009, 09:13 AM

cool

mrboon · 10-29-2009, 09:40 AM

I see 0 difference from a 35i

MilitaryE89 · 10-29-2009, 11:38 AM

definitly minimal difference when compared to M bumpers for 3er...I know, different platform, but there is so much potential to do some crazy body work with this car. looks like BMW is content with minimal effort at this point. Won't be surprised if after lots of people order/buy this kit that they will come out with something more dramatic in the future to squeeze more money out of us...oh well

Isn't that a saddle interior?

gt205v6 · 10-29-2009, 01:48 PM

Beautiful. I still think it can't beat the old generation Z4 M though.

BMW86 · 10-29-2009, 02:39 PM

Just beautiful. This is the Z4 I've been waiting for... can't wait to see it in the flesh!!

datbimmerdoe · 10-29-2009, 05:45 PM

M-Sport FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!!

Jay Zone · 10-29-2009, 05:50 PM

A Saddle Brown interior option the year after I bought my Z would drive me nuts.

I hope this interior is two years out.

Have to reserve judgement for production version, but this doesn't seem like much of a change.

Some additional interior colors would be welcome.

Argent60 · 10-30-2009, 03:22 AM

I seriously don't see what all the excitement is about.

There is only VERY minor visual change here.
I DO agree that additional HP and interior colors would be welcome, if this is what this test run is about.

footie · 10-30-2009, 06:28 AM

Is this just a Z4 with an M Package or the first signs of an M version being tested for real?

Either way, the fact that BMW are addressing the suspension should be a welcomed inclusion to those who like the new car but wish if was a bit more focused.

Alext · 10-30-2009, 06:49 AM

The excitement is all about the new HP fuel pump they will install in this!*

*with any luck

Memphis1 · 10-30-2009, 06:52 AM

maybe it's just a stubby antenna change... hehe

M > M-Sport

Always will be IMO too, but since they say we wont get an e89 M, this is as close as we'll get, for now, maybe it will have a slight HP bump, but I doubt it...

Alext · 10-30-2009, 09:38 AM

Any guesses as to what premium BMW will charge for the 40i MSport? BMW have to be careful here as it is not a full M model but they (supposedly) are giving it a power bump.

Vintage · 10-30-2009, 10:08 AM

I just hope the Power Kit "bump" will be available for my wife's '09

Memphis1 · 10-30-2009, 10:23 AM

maybe like $4k more sold as a package...
