    The production of a legend has ended and BMW has done this without fireworks. The last BMW Z4 E89, being an sDrive35 was built a few days ago. Being on the market since 2009, the second generation Z4 has been manufactured in more than 115,000 units. The official end-day of the BMW Z4 E89 production, which will be left in history, is August 22nd.

    The last Z4 sDrive35 comes in stunning Valencia Orange Metallic. There is nothing extraordinary that differentiates it from other models. In other words, the final edition pumps out 340 hp from its twin-turbo six-cylinder engine, N54.

    But weep not! Because this isn’t the end of the attractive two-seater. BMW and Toyota are currently developing the so called Z5 with codename G29. Both models, old an new, have many similarities, but unlike the metal roof on the Z4, the Z5 will sport a soft top. This is beneficial, because it will definitely make the new car faster by at least lowering the weigh of the vehicle. In addition, the trunk will be quite more spacious.

    Rumors are saying that the Z5 roadster will be officially revealed in 2017 during motor events in Europe, while its production is planned for 2018. There is one other exciting news about the Z5. It is expected to be equipped with powerful BMW engines, except for the hybrid variant of the car, which will be driven by a Toyota powertrain.

    What will actually happen? Let’s wait for some official information from BMW.

  • Carlex Design BMW Z4 E89 – Awesome!

    Carlex Design has published several nice pictures of a heavily modified BMW Z4 E89. The stylish roadster received a unique look – exterior and interior by the tuning company. The new vision is truly impressive and even hardcore BMW fans (like me) like it, a lot.

    The inspiration for the project is taken from a sub-genre of science fiction. The tuning specialists from Poland created a stunning combination of brass and Alcantara with different types of dark leather. The roll bars behind the seats as well as the door handles, transmission tunnel and some sections of the dashboard received brass treatment, while the seats and the steering wheel are finished in fine dark leather with contrasting stitches.

    The exterior boasts a complete matte black foiling combined with a copper finish for the roof and the new enormous alloy wheels.

    No words about performance modifications, but the heavily tuned Z4 by Carlex is enough impressive even without hundreds of horsepower under the long front hood. Still, the small roadster is pretty quick even in its least powerful version – sDrive18i powered by a 2.0 liter four-cylinder engine – 156HP (115 kW) and 200Nm (148 lb-ft). 0-100 km/h in 8.1 seconds and a top speed of 220 km/h (138 mph).

    Enjoy the pictures!

  • BMW Z4 White Wolf RR by Rowen

    Here’s a rare find. A BMW Z4 E89 radically transformed by the Japan-based Rowen house. In a few words: extensive use of carbon fiber materials, big wheels and … LEDs.

    A new front apron with splitter sits at the front (there are also the LEDs), the side skirts have been redesigned and the tips of the exhaust pipes are all titanium. If that carbon wing at the back was a tad bigger, the Z4 would be pretty reminiscent of a full-blown GT car.

    We cannot omit stating the obvious that the wheels are new and the suspension has been lowered. When it comes to a price, the Rowen Z4 White Wolf RR is staged so you’ll end up somewhere in between the 493,500 Yen to 756,000 Yen range. That is $6,200-$9,500.

    Do we need to remind you that, at it’s best the E89 has a twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter straight six. That’s 340 PS and 450 Nm of torque, crunched by a 7-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox and good for a 4.8 second run to the 62nd mile an hour landmark.
