Pics : BMW z4

FlyingSpur · 3rd June 2010, 19:39

Time to revive this thread, since I didn't want to troll on the various ownership threads with posts on sightings.

This one was in Khar. Black. Not sure if it belonged to a BHP'ian. AFAIK all those are White / Blue.

Nice pics flyingspur ! Love the beast in that colour and those rims look fantastic ! It looks so mean - Ready to pounce upon its prey !
Btw is it just due to light reflection, or there are two big scratches above the BMW logo

Looks great. Awesome pictures flyingspur. Btw, it looks to have taken a slight beating from rickshaws etc. Second pic, below the headlamp washer.

The best BMW design for a long time,love the curves.

FlyingSpur · 4th June 2010, 02:26

Actually I have more pics, better ones but I'm too lazy to blank out plates...

I'll upload those tomorrow. Pics were taken from a Samsung phone with a sad camera, but glad you guys like the images. Daylight shots come out well it seems. And as far as the design goes, I liked the old Bangled rhino over this Hooydonk'ed design.

The second photo looks straight out of a digi-cam if not better. I'm suddenly feeling good about my phone!

z3 any day some how they ended up with a screwed up design for the front

Nice pictures Flyingspur. Though the car looks weird and unappealing to me in black. Maybe something to do with the tints? It looks sweet in white or blue though, and love those wheels!

YSooSeriouss · 6th June 2010, 00:41

Yes, i agree its not thaaat good looking in black. Id prefer a white ANYDAY!

Saw my ex boss driving this. Last I heard, he had bought a 5 series so don't know if he's bought this or was testing a friends car.

He stays in 7 bungalows/Versova so the guys staying in that area might see it if he's bought it.

Saw it at the Indianoil pump opposite the Lotus pump in Andheri.

When I first saw them I loved them, but the more I look at them, the more I feel now that those rims are too fussy, too "busy". I'd like a simpler design. Hmmm.

Yup. Performance is real good, nothing compared to your K4! but it does make me smile every time I drive it.

That is your ex boss's car.
