Anyone know when we can order a 2013 Z4 or when pricing for the next model year is typically released ahead of production commencement? Are there any changes to the Z4 expected for the 2013 model year? I'm in the market for a Z4 35is either 2012 or 13 MY depending on how long I Have to wait to order. Any spy pics out there?
Haven't seen any details on the '13 models, but I found a new '11 Z4 35is a few months ago & it's every bit as exciting to drive as my old M Roadster. Hope your search ends a well as mine did.
I waited for a promising new model year a long time ago. Bought into the hype & was convinced this car was the car for me. I drove the current model year & was blown away, certain that the new model in the pipeline would be even better I bit the bullet & waited. Big Mistake. I passed on the best of breed & bought the ghost of a great car. Different isn't always better.
Last time I read about a down-sized BMW roadster it was in Car & Driver... The turbo four is in place now, we just need the chassis to fit the weight class.
So, we know know two-tone is an option for the Z4. From what BMW is doing to other platforms, I hope they pass along more customizable options to the Z, too. I've been waiting to pull.the trigger but other than LED headlights, different style rims, closing and .opening the top while.driving and the two tone color scheme, it appears the Z will have no LCI changes for model year 2013.
Last I came across was a reference to a Z2 (or Z3) based on the upcoming Mini chassis revision, which is supposed to take place in 2014. FWD, 4-cyl, rag-top. Of course the latest rumor is it will not be a BMW, but the new Triumph and sold by Mini dealers. http://jalopnik.com/146934/bmw-to-pull-a-mini-on-the-triumph-brand http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/triumph-revival-again
