haha looks like a miata with a grill that would make Paul Wall proud. I wonder how long it will be before BMW starts making good looking cars again.

The sport package will transform the look of that car.. Those wheels are similar in style to the non-sport pack 09 335 sedan. Can't wait to test this car out..

Not a big fan of the wheels, but it doesn't look that bad...

I've always liked the quirky design of the Z4.

I think this does modernize the look, but it's still the same quirky (and distinctive) look.

I think the new pedestrian crash standards got the best of the front end design.

Yup, that RIDICULOUS Euro legislation has changed and ruined the design of hundreds of vehicles. But I guess it saved a few potential Darwin award winners.

Looks ok, not very different. Z4 and Lexus "platypus" SC430 are the worst looking convertibles on the road though, imo.
