 Full Test: 2001 BMW Z8   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Technologically, the Z8 is light years removed from its forebear, but visually many of its styling cues are remarkably similar — its long, sloping hood with round headlight humps, the twin-kidney grille, the distinctive vents aft of the front wheels and the red leather interior all invoke images of the 507.
The Z8 borrows the all-aluminum 5.0-liter powerplant that is used in the M5 sedan.
The aluminum-bodied Z8 weighs 730 pounds less than the M5, and its performance is nothing short of electrifying.

 BMW Z8 Info
The Z8 made the perfect car for the James Bond character, and definitely helped BMW with the marketing of a model in a (price) niche they had never populated before.
The Z8 is a style statement of course, with BMW freely admitting that the Z8 evokes the 507 from the fifties – which isn’t a bad move seeing as Albrecht Graf von Goertz’s design is one of the most beautiful cars ever produced.
The trouble the Z8 has, is that like many of BMWs M-Powered cars, they punch way above their weight in the performance stakes, so the motoring press (quite wrongly in my opinion) compare them with cars that are not natural rivals or cars that are priced far higher than the BMW.
