Z4 getting new engine?
Is Z4 going to be equipped with new 3.0 liter engines outputting 215HP and 255HP which are being used on new 3 series and named as 2.5 and 3.0 respectively?
If so, Z4 will be quite competitive roadster, since 330i performance (which is relatively heavy) is almost same as S2000 already. I cannot imagine what performance figures may come out of Z4 with those engines.
Thought?

Rumors have it that they'll release an Z4M, and I'd rather see that then a slight boost in the current Z4 lineup which already has a 2, 2.2, 2.5 and 3 liter engine, each having 20hp more or less then their nearest neighbour.

no to the z4m. those rumours are older than the car.
the black z4 is growing on me.

it is coming- the only question is what engine will be in it, the 3.2L I6(s54), or a derivitive of the e90 m3's 4.0L v8
btw the Z4 will be getting the N54 in the 2006 models

I heard the MZ4 rumors about two years ago, but that was before the sales of this car tanked. I would hope they would facelift it like they did the 7 Series. Might be interested.
