New BMW Z2 coming soon
I'm not posting t his in BMW new as it never works except for mods
We haven't heard much about the BMW Z2 lately, but new details are starting to emerge about the entry-level roadster.
Autocar is reporting that one of their sources has confirmed the company is considering an entry-level model in the same vein as the original Z3. The informant went on to say the car is about the same size as the Z3 but will ride on the company's front-wheel drive UKL platform.
In order to keep costs down, the model will likely be developed alongside the next-generation MINI Coupe and Roadster. The car is also expected to eschew the Z4's folding hardtop for a cheaper fabric roof.
Engine options remain unconfirmed, but speculation suggests we can expect a fairly limited petrol lineup. There's also word of an M Performance variant which could have all-wheel drive and a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with up to 300 bhp (224 kW).

People just keep buying this crap, obviously or they wouldn't make it.
Built next to a Mini is like saying " it will be shit ".

I have nothing but hate fior the looks of this car but a 2L producing 300hp is pretty impressive. There must be a pretty sizable turbo(s) on this thing

I love the f30, used to hate it, then the style grew on me, then I drove a couple variants and fell in love with it.
