Is there a BMW Z4(M)'10 In mumbai ? I guess i saw glimpse of a Crimson Red Z4 with 'M' Badges all around.

I don't think a Z4 //M exists. The sdrive35is is the top of the line Z4. The //M badges are not very difficult to find from the aftermarket.

Sorry to disappoint you on this one brother, Check out these links for the beast from 'M' division of Bimmer. Its called as the 'M' sports package for standard Z4.

Bmw has decided not to come out with a M version for the current Z4,so that car is re-badged.

Please refer Post #34.
M division did come with a Z4 but they called it a M sports package rather than introducing it as a totally new model.

Ok i knew there's a //M sports package but I thought you were talking about a 2010 Z4 //M, which still doesn't exist. M sport packages are available on even the 3 series and 5 series, but M3 and M5 are totally different

BMW 2010 Z4 with 'M' sports package. Thats what it should be called technically but its normally referred as BMW Z4 //M Coupe' or the Roadster(Roadster variant with soft-top was replaced by the Hard-top one from 2010)

I'm.

Saw another example of this crap, this time in a unique colour. This was at Santacruz.

shamik.bose · 30th April 2010, 18:39

That's a lovely color on the GT. First time I actually like the look of the car. Nice find!

avishar · 30th April 2010, 20:00

Something tells me a lot of people are going to get dissapointed on seeing the F10 5 series in flesh too,it almost has the same front.

FlyingSpur · 30th April 2010, 21:09

I don't mind the front, it's the profile and its fat bum that annoys me.

Jayabusa · 1st May 2010, 01:09

I'm sure people buying this thing must be golfers.

arjunrudra · 1st May 2010, 06:21

Wow thats a refreshing color and a much needed change other than the white GT's. I was also having a the same view as most of you guys , but when I saw the car in person my thought gave in. Now I actually do like the vehicle.
I'm sure seeing it in person would change most of your views.

salman_ferrari · 1st May 2010, 11:33

Love the color, hate the car. It has a rather weird stance compared to the rest of the Beemers.
