BMW Z8: A Classic?
After looking at these photos ( Credit : On the plates ), I think it is: Here, Credit unknown, but I will happily credit on request. I could see the Z8 on the road a few times, and I fell in love with that car. Exquisite, refined, sensual... This car has ...
Yes definitely I think so. I love the silver exterior and red interior combination for this Z8
Although a black leather interior would be more practical. This was my dream car when I was so young before working. This is on a short list of cars on my radar for a vintage pleasure with real character.
I am probably one of the few
but I really dislike the design of this Z8 - it is not classic traditional enough in my opinion but has just a bit too sharp and aggressive wannabe-lambo-lines in the front. Something kids prefer with their die cast metal cars or James Bond car addicts ;-...
too sharp and aggressive for a car that was supposed too be the successor of the 507
surely not comparable with those actual monsters :-0
You are definitely right, mon ami.
My big grill says hello. Definitely not under the radar… But I love it and wear it in combination a discreet watch. LOLL ...
its an acquired taste and full of character
This daring design is very BMW unlike the other German
At the beginning there
were many jokes about this new front design. But in the meantime most critics have gotten used to it. Or now have other worries. LOL And I personally have always liked this design very much.
It is a beautiful car. A colleague of mine used to.have one and he always told me that the car was made to be more of a beautiful cruiser.
The prices are quite accessible, if i am not mistaken. A beautiful piece indeed.
agree clean engineering perfection with superlative purposeful art
controlled passion LOL
For me
the Z8 is BMW’s most beautiful sports car and one of the most attractive sports cars ever made. Comparable to an E-Type (for me). Love it!
An absolutely gem of a car...
The BMW Z8 is an amazing gem of a car. One that is underappreciated. Design wise, it's so perfect... It deserves to be housed in a museum. It's probably in a museum or two! I haven't driven one (moved one in a parking lot, but that doesn't count).
Indeed it is if you're a roundel fan like me.
Especially if you prefer the older design style.
The Z8 is highly underrated by most IMHO.
Hi all Back in the time when these cars were first being released I was in one of my not working phases and helping out a friend of a friend that was a luxury sports car dealer. I was making weekly trips to Frankfurt to then drive back to London various F...
Oh yes
This car is an absolute joy inside, out, and mechanically. My dad bought one new in '02 and has been driving it consistently in good weather for 20 years now! The local BMW dealership jokes that his is probably the highest mileage Z8 in existence.
Definitely a classic. Timeless styling. Terrific engine (same as the M5 from that era). Manual transmission.
And prices here in the U.S. have certainly borne that out. Low mileage examples are very expensive and are now collector cars IMO. John

Impeccable.
Look how nice the wheels fit the design. Nothing overdone, everything working well together. Winner for me!
No question, it's an absolute classic.
It's had the look of a long term classic right from the start, which not many cars do. Fairly limited production numbers and beautiful classic lines. I suspect that even if you paid the outrageous amounts that this car commands in today's market, long-ter...
It definitely is.
I tried to add one to the collection about 3-4 years ago and they were already hovering around the $200k mark. And at that price point a lot of options open up so I passed onto the next.
Top-down…
It looks vintage “Aston-esque” in the front IMO. Not a bad point of comparison in my book!
Future (or current) classic
All time style. Black with red interior would be my choice. I had a chance to drive an automatic one a long time ago (maybe alpina?)... it has open top racer style, but it drives relaxed and GT like. For me that is perfect. Can have 911 for sports car des...
I can still remember the first time I saw this car
It was on my computer screen, during Clarkson's review of it on Top Gear. I remember being so disappointed when he said it was no fun to drive 😂 because it really is a thing of beauty. Whether or not something is a classic, at the end of the day, depends ...
Perhaps compared to the more ubiquitous Z4?
As always, no review can be taken too seriously. Especially ones from an a show like TG which is primarily for entertainment, not consumer advice. It doesn't matter how the Z8 drives, not really. It is a thing of beauty.
I don't believe there's any real doubt.
They were $80-$100,000 used cars for a long time. Now it's $200-$400,000. I've seen sales over $400K These were ripped by magazines when they came out. I guess it's not enough to be a gorgeous 6-speed roadster with 400hp and rear-wheel drive. Journalists ...
