You may have to wait for a test drive. According to the BMW Oz Media Release>>, the new Z4 will arrive in Australian showrooms in the third quarter of 2009, with a choice of 3 six cylinder petrol engines (150 kW to 225 kW).

Yes, me too, especially in Monaco Blue, it'll be interesting to see what other colours are offered. (interior & exterior).

It may sound odd, but that's music to my ears! I've been given permission by the better half to buy one, just on the condition that i wait until summer next year, so that timing would see me getting an early 2010 model, fingers crossed. Just waiting to see the pricing to see which 3.0 i6 i'll wind up with.

I would love to see a black one for sure. Monaco looks quite elegant as well.

If you haven't already checked it out, the International BMW website has a PDF product catalog which features the Monaco Blue w/ a Beige-like interior. Being an international catalog, it doesn't contain any country specific info like pricing or colour combinations, but is a good first reference source especially for the specs & equipment list.

The Z4 (2009) page is...

Someone on the Z-post forum listed the available colours:

Metallic
Black Sapphire
Deep Sea Blue
Orion Silver (this is the silver we see in the BMW press images)
Space Gray
Titanium Silver

Non metallic
Alpine White
Jet Black
Crimson Red

From what I've read (on the internet ) an M version (particularly with the S65 engine) is not on the books .... still, the 35i should be a very reasonable substitute.

Brad, I hope your permission to purchase isn't along these lines:


I'm going to need permission from my neighbour (to use her garage) to be able to buy one.

it's really great they sorted out what i thought was a too big a nose on the previous Z4. the new one just looks very well balanced.

i covet it.

That deep sea blue (that i previously mistook for Monaco Blue) looks the goods at the moment, still want to see how they look in black though.

Luckily, for my sake Mike, i got full permission, have even showed the full size pics (to her) and so on, so i should be fine (see: still alive post purchase!).

Yeah, i've got a hunch the first glimpse we'll see will be on the car configurator, or maybe at one of the motor shows?

Spotted an Individual Brilliant White Metallic 650i (post-facelift) on Military Rd this evening, looked MINT!
FYI - For those who haven't seen Brilliant White Metallic, be sure to look it up!
