Is it me or does it have a TVR look due to the bangle lines?

No doubt it will sell in the thousands - they are welcome to it!

I bet you'd have one in a flash mikey if it came with unlimited free wheel changes

In the UK yes, only as an M. In Europe and the US, they did 2.8 and 3.0 versions.

Still see a lot more M roadsters than M coupes.

Could be the questionable looks of course - too many people buy on looks / badge rather than the drive though (a guy at work used to drive a 3 series, replaced it with an Audi, replaced that with a Boxster - apparently he CAN get his golf clubs in it )

Naah the wheels are too cheap!

I've already lined up the next set if I don't like the 17" CE28's

It may even [B]CORNER better

The Z4 front end is astonishingly bad. it looks like a big fat lass puckering up for a kiss..

the 3l currently in the Z4 has 231bhp i think but 300Nm of torque.

if they revised the front end I must admit that coupe looks nice, the side rear angle is sweet.

Honda can't make an S coupe, it's too late. The S is starting to look dated imo, that's why they've been tinkering with the bumpers etc. Still a fcukin great drivers car

and it doesn't have a BM badge

Well - I didn't know that - as they say you learn something new every day!

I think that it still looks fresh as a daisy to be honest!

Much better than the competition, anyway

I love it but that is the basic model and yet it has the csl's semi slick tyres why?
