Wonder what the prod. numbers are on the Z-8... It might be worth the cash if it's destined to be a collector item someday.

I don't like the Z4 at all. I like the looks of the Z8. Obviously with the V8 the power is good, but I hear they tried too hard with the "flashy" items in the cockpit and I hear it can't corner worth beans either.

I think it costs too much for what you get. I agree that it's exterior styling makes it look like it's melting. The design is not timeless. I can guarantee you that in 5+ years it will look even less attractive if not worse/uglier. I am also willing to bed that the resale value will suffer because of that fact.

I also don't like the ergonomics but that's just me. My $0.02 .

After just coming back from a track day in my S I have to say it's going to be damn hard to find something for the next car.

I got the idea from that thread that James did ages ago. I wonder how many people have been fooled but not admitted it.
