Following strong consumer reaction to the concept Z4 Coupe at the 2005 Frankfurt
and Tokyo Auto Shows, BMW has confirmed that both the Z4 Coupe and an M version,
the M Coupe will enter series production.
Visitors in Frankfurt and Tokyo were captivated by the car’s stylish body
with its unique silken matte finish, tailored in the very best style of a classic
sports coupe. While the driving dynamics potential of the vehicle was clear in
its strong, purposeful lines, equally appealing to visitors was the striking interior
design.
To be produced in Spartanburg, S.C., the first vehicles will be delivered to customers
as early as June 2006.
The proven 255 horsepower (U.S. SAE net) in-line 6-cylinder engine with its
high output and lightweight magnesium and aluminum construction promises superior
agility and high performance. It not only catapults the Z4 Coupe to the top
of the international competitive field but is also demonstrates the enormous
performance capacity of the fundamental BMW Z4 Roadster concept – which
forms the basis of the coupe.
BMW is also working to produce a high-end variation as quickly as possible and
the result will be the return of the M Coupe, based on the new Z4 Coupe. Powered
by the exciting 3.2-liter high-rpm engine, familiar from the BMW M3 and winner
of many international awards, it will also come out in June 2006.
More detailed information on the BMW Z4 Coupe and Z4 M Coupe will follow in early
2006.
