BMW Z8
Specifications
The green mongoose howls at noon. (That means, Look at James Bonds’s BMW Z8. For those of you not in Government Intelligence).
Explosions, extreme style and ladies with beautiful. uhmm. Headlights. BMW decided to launch the Z8 through the new James Bond, because it also fits the picture described above! Though Henrik Fisker was more of a buttocks man, what a beautifully shaped curvy derriere! Together with the already famous lines of the 507, the Z8 became a modern style icon for BMW. And no, that 507 is not a Peugeot.
Everything about the Z8 was revolutionary. Matrix lights? Well, been there and done that. The Z8 was given special neon rear lights that would last the entire life of the BMW. The chassis was made of aluminium, and in the front there was a big V8 with a manual gearbox and a relatively short transmission. 400 Bavarian horses and 500 NM of pushing German, what a treat! Above 4000 rpm the 4.9 litre starts roaring like Pavarotti in the shower.
When they claimed in Munich that it would drive like a 360 Modena, even we as BMW purists could laugh a little at the German chauvinism. After driving it we can only conclude one thing, it is German realism.
And then ours. Perhaps the one for the James Bond villain. Black on black with original hardtop, wow! She is completely damage free, original, documented and serviced at a specially trained Z8 specialist from Van Poelgeest in Amstelveen.
Now there is a name to die for. 8. Z8. Licensed to thrill.
