Once again, BMWBlog is coming through for their readers. From the official 2009 BMW Z4 catalog, here is a teaser photo with the new Z4. Yesterday, we saw the first real photo of the 09 Z4 at a BMW dealership and I mentioned that within days we will get more photos released.
I hope this new photo will answer some of the questions that you had after seeing the real life shot. My opinion: STUNNING!!
The car will be a great hit as long as the base price will not be set too high compared to its competitors.
Update: It has been confirmed, it is definitely the real deal. The car looks a little bit disproportionate due to the brochure scan.
Thanks for the photo Tizi!
That’s it for now, we’ll be back soon with more exclusive news. But in the mean time, if you would like us to keep you updated on all the BMW news, please take a moment and sign up for our email feed. Get updates by email

i like it…very mutch, is better than i tought
Nice evolutionary replacement to the original Z4. Although, the headlights and taillights seem to have less character this time around.
LOOK AT THAT REAR END! PURE HOTNESS!!!!!! ;D
Harotio this is a rendering dont be foolish
@bmwduder: It does look that way but I confirmed with somebody else and said it was the real deal. Hopefully I’m not wrong, but regardless, i couldn’t just hold on to it, I had to share it with everyone.
this is no rendering…the side panels correspond perfectly with the real photo. remember…our first pics of the 7 were from a brochure..

“STUNNING!!

I hope the stealers will not charge a $20K to $40K market adjustment like they did with the M3
And confirmation:
It’s the real deal … although the pic you posted is a bit disproportioned.
W:H ratio is not right. It’s too horizontally stretched.
Check the spy pics for the real proportions.
Otherwise it’s a scan from promo brochure / leaflet. Not a CGI, PS, or a render …
Also the headlights look very sleek - and definitely not too large.
Eyebrow element in the headlights, combined with 35i titanium trim (kidney grille, air intake inserts) looks SOOOOOOOO AGGRESSIVE on a Black car. So predatory.
Shit, that’s really hot… Dammit, I was hoping this wouldn’t happen. Right when I’m seriously considering buying a Z4, they go and make a harder core new version… Thanks BMW.
HOLY SH*T. that looks amazing
@Horatiu B.: I don’t see a headlights shot..
looks pretty good. best bits of the 6er and the old Z4

i’m happiest that bmw finally got rid of that awkward rocker-panel “dip” that was on the old Z4… now if they can only remove it from the 1-series!!! anyone else w/ me???
Wow… That looks really, really damn good. Hmmm… New Z4 + TT I6 + 6 speed. Sign me up.
too bad we’re not getting the horizontally “stretched” version that is shown in the picture, ’cause the stance of that sucker is BAD ASS. now all I need is a Z4 and a funhouse mirror…
I do like how they cleaned up the rear end of the car though.
The image is a bit distorted but we can really make out as to what direction BMW is headed in with the design cues. Looks like a copped up 6 and 7 series together. Should be pretty awesome!

@roffle waffle: I was told that weight has not increased by much, I will have some figures early next week.
awesome, thanks! My z4 3.0 weighs around 3000# with the sparco seats, so I’d hate to upgrade to a 3500# boat
wow !
BMW does it AGAIN !!!
love the look

?…Its better looking than I thought but to be honest, I was expecting a little more curves so it could have a more sexual appearence to it. BMW is a good car manufacturer but they need to concentrate more on exterior design, But again nice!

[...] Last week we showed you a photo of the new BMW Z4 caught in a BMW showroom somewhere and now, thanks to our good friends from BMW Blog, we’ve got another goodie for all the car’s fans. This official brochure was leaked and we can get a look at the car’s rear (though it’s a scan, the quality is pretty good). Hmm, that makes us reconsider a little our previous position, because the car looks very good here. Some influence from the 6 Series, but that’s very promising, we must admit. Source: BMW Blog [...]
