Sizzling performance and svelte styling make the 2008 BMW Z4 a delight for any enthusiast. Available as the Z4 Coupe or Z4 Roadster, either model delivers quick acceleration and well-balanced handling.
The 3.0 liter inline 6-cylinder engine produces 255 horsepower for dynamic thrust, while the standard 6-speed manual gearbox is perfectly suited for quick shifting. The available 6-speed STEPTRONIC® automatic transmission with Adaptive Transmission Control and steering wheel-mounted manual shift paddles allow you to manually shift through the gears with the flick of a finger.
The standard power, lined softtop of the Z4 Roadster opens or closes in less than ten seconds with the push of a button on the center console. Optional amenities include 8-way power seats with 3-way driver’s seat memory for ultimate comfort with 3-stage heating. The available THX™ Certified premium audio system features MP3 capabilities and 10 audiophile-quality speakers, including 2 subwoofers, for concert-like sound quality. The integrated iPod® Interface allows you to take your digital music on the road. The available Sport Package includes Dynamic Driving Control with a Sport Button for crisper handling and quicker engine response, 18” light-alloy wheels with performance tires, and a sport suspension for even better road feel.
Safety features include Dynamic Stability Control, including Brake Fade Compensation, Start-off Assistant, Brake Drying, and Brake Stand-by with Dynamic Traction Control providing amazing braking power, prevent wheel lockup, and supply excellent traction in all weather conditions. The standard run-flat wheel-tire system with Tire Pressure Warning allows you to drive up to 90 miles after loss of air pressure and provides a warning on the instrument panel if pressure gets too low. Standard dual front airbags, active knee protection airbags, and side-impact airbags protect both passengers in a collision.
Although not as hard-edged its M edition counterpart, the 2008 BMW Z4 offers grin-inducing speed and sexy curves as the Z4 Coupe or Z4 Roadster.
