Looks ok to me, like a meaner version of the current Z4... and finally the return of the Z3's side gills/vents.

Busy and overstyled, imho. The grilles pitch forward awkwardly, and none of the shapes in the front fascia (grilles, headlamps and outboard lower air intakes) seem to have any relation to each other. And like the Z3, the tiny butt seems weak. Once again it makes the Miata look like an honest, pure sports car, even though I'm sure it will be a pleasure to drive.

It looks a tad ugly in my opinion. The front looks way to long. Maybe just the angle of the picture. Gonna have to wait for press release pictures to get some different angles, but don't like the look for now.

I agree with you. "The front looks way to long". It is just like a driving from the rear seats.

that is so ugly, it'll probably grow on me though like most BMW designs

Looks a little better than the current one... and that's pretty much everything I have to say about it.

fugly as hell the grill of the new bmw generations is akward why do they keep doing it bigger and bigger. but a V8 will be amazing it would have some awesome handling and power but an ugly face

Oh no, looks like BMW's have a bad future ahead. new cars (apart from the 3 series) from BMW are looking like ****! The designer should be just unemployed already...

Good one. Better than previous and it is already something. Prettiest beemer in whole lineup.

Meh, better than the 7, I guess I like it alright, it's already 1000 times better than the other z4 because its being made in Germany.

BMW, hire some good designers please. New Z4 styling stays very faithful at sucking.

as for the z4, it stays true to old school proportions but remains too long in the front for my taste, being seat on the rear axle just feels weird

Looks great. I love the blatant elongation of the bonnet. Its obviously not needed, but it just gives the car such a unique, exotic look! Like you will open it and find a V12 or something!
Good job BMW! Makes a TT look fat and bloated.

Reserve judgement until you see proper pictures and not a camera phone image with ridiculous amounts of reflections all over the car. It stays true to the traditional roadster format hence the long bonnet.

I like the look of it... though i do think that photo is a deliberate leak if you look at the reflections they hide important detail, as does the chap moving out of the shot, he covers the roof, yes it looks likely to be a metal one, it could be soft from the way his arm covers it and reflection hides the tailing edge of the boot and rear light cluster. either way it's cool

Am not a fan of the Z-Series but the front actually looks nice. I totally agree that they went back to a more Z3 style and thats the only complaint I have about it.
