Yep the claims are probably rubbish...... according to the letstorqueBHP.com performance calculator you'd need at least 500bhp at the flywheel get even get close to 3sec 0-60

Oh and with those doors it just looks like a chaved up Z4M Coupe.......

Unlikely, Rennteam is a very reputable forum and would debunk it sharpish if there wasnt solid evidence to the contrary.

It was a design study called the Z29.

[QUOTE]
Here is the extract from Auto Motor und Sport translated by a Z4um forum member:

The front of the Z29 consists of aluminum. The prototype shows parallels to the Z4 coup
