2009 bmw z4

The 2009 BMW Z4 is the third generation of BMW's two-seat sports car (counting the original Z3) and it looks like it'll arrive with more handsome styling and better proportions. Gone is the awkward line running up the sides of the car and across the front fenders, headlights, and nose. The new headlights are pulled back and sleek, rather than droopy and oddly shaped as on the outgoing car. In fact, combined with the broader twin-kidney grille, the new Z4 almost looks like it has a hint of Aston Martin in the front end. Around the back, the new rear end is clearly related to the one on the new 6 Series coupe.
While the Z4's new duds are striking, its performance will really get your attention. Gone is the old 2.5L engine, replaced with the same inline sixes found under the hood of the new 1 Series. Standard on the sDrive30i is a 3.0L with Valvetronic variable valve timing laying down 255 hp and 220 lb-ft, enough to hustle the car to 60 in 5.6 sec, according to BMW. If performance is your game, the 3.0L direct-injected twin-turbo in the sDrive35i is the engine for you. With 300 hp and 300 lb-ft of torque, it will reportedly hit 60 in 5 sec flat. Both models are electronically limited to a top speed of 150 mph with an optional Sport Package or 130 mph without.
