Spotted BMW z8
 

never seen one in person before. just stopped at a red light infront of my work. i didnt have camera to take pic but looked pretty cool but body lines and bumpers dont flow too well

do they still sell those?

they are pretty damn expensive, $180 + i believe

what do you mean "they still sell those"?

they're not 180K, just a tad bit over 100K, rare cars. production stopped in 2003 I think.

It was also a Bond car.

Used to see a red one around Richmond all the time a few years back.

There's quite a bit of them in town. I've maybe seen them 100 times.

there are a bunch in town
and they are ugly

there pretty nice cruisers especially the alpina one

ive also seen a red one before in coquitlam

thats wat i meant, i thought they are discontinued



thought its more than 100k, oh well..still pricey

There are not lots of these around trust me. Most of you are probably seeing Z3M's not Z8's. Theres quite the difference between the two, in powertrain and in price. The Z8 shares the S62 with the M5.

Ive personally only ever seen 2. One at Brian Jessel which was for sale IIRC 130K for a 2000 Z8. There is a guy in White Rock who owns a 00/01 Z8. There were only approximately 5700 made world wide. Half made it to USA.

Looks are to each his own. Personally I think they look neat, but i wouldnt drop 100K on one. They were based off the z07 concept which was based off the 507.

there was a pre-owned one for sale at BJ BMW last year when I was getting me TL

There is quite a few of them around in Vancouver. I personally know of at least 10-12.

I used to work at Jessel at point, saw around 5 there, for service mostly.

"Alpina Z8 is the first aftermarket tuned car to have a smaller engine than the stock" - Anyone remember who said this? (not word for word but similar) :D

Z8 is sexy

I think I read that in a car magazine too, uses the X5 engine and turbo/supercharged I believe. Correct me if I'm wrong

z8 is a hot car, would love to own one.

I also saw one in Kerrisdale today.
