have you seen the

[tm2003]

alpina modified bmw z8 its just magnifique

 

[BMW POWER]

great car but to much of a poser car for me, i will take the original Z8 model please

 

[Klostrophobic]

Sure, I guess I've seen a bunch of pictures. It isn't that good looking.

 

[TsLeng]

nothing special

 

[Turbo2]

The wheels look like one of those "RONCO TURBO-CHOP" deals that you find at K-MART for dicing up vegetables!! Quick hurry, there's a "flashing Blue Light Special" going on in Isle 4 !!!

 

[Blaze Kinser]

Put some more tasteful 5-spokes on it and it'd be much better. The body's nice, but those wheels just dominate the thing and make it look really tacky!

 

[qjasonp]

Yes i agree change the wheels adn it will look great

 

[Shannon]

I don't like the Z8 period. Z4 for me please.

 

[Flerbizky]

I'm not usually a big BMW fan, but the Z8 I really like. And Alpina i definitely like.. A LOT... That - and a Dane designed the Z8.. I'll take it..

I didn't like the Z4 all the much until I saw it in person...it rocks.

 

[Joey D]

I personally don't like the Z8

 

[quicksilver1122]

I don't like the Z8 either. The alpina just makes it worse. My favorite out of all the Z's is the Z4. There's just something about the lines that make it look so smooth.

Ths "plain jane" Z8 is good enough for me.
I only have one MAJOR gripe.
No manual tranny is availible.
So put me down for a Mini Cooper S, or a 6-cyl M3.

Yes thats true. At first the Z4 did seem like much, but when you see it in person its like a totally different car, it really does rock

I like the Z8 the way it is. But this thing must be a beast! I just dont like the wheels on it like alot of you guys said.

V6 M3 Come on, V6?? BMW is famous for their inline sixes!!! not V's... Actually BMW is famous for quite a number of things...

 

[miniMADness]

[U.N.A.M]

no such thing. BMW is pure inline 6.

 

[delucani]

I went down to a BMW dealership the other day and they had a BMW Alpina Roadster sitting on the showroom floow. Triple Black. :drools:

 

[supra229]

If anyone from the UK saw Topgear they will realise the z8 is %$*> and the Alpina version is downgraded but it still isn't that good.

My Bad. The post has been changed.
I STILL think that the Z8 could have a manual tranny offered.

I thought that the stock Z8 was manual-only? Perhaps that's just for Europe.
