Looking into my crystal ball...

I see one in my future !!!

My only concern is the size of the trunk with the top down. The Mercedes Benz SLK is small when up, non-existent when down. This is where my "rag top" really shines. It actually has a small but usable space.

BTW, any performance numbers available yet.

I like it a little better, but I stil don't like the fender design with that elevated ridge on the top. I would prefer it to be rounded off.

-The bangle-butt's gotten more in line with the 6er by the looks of it.

-The proportions on the front are almost a bit like the current design language of Merc. Does anyone else see it? The wide, low, flayed-out proportions almost make me think of a current-gen C-class or SL.

-It's still a clear member of the "flame surfaced" series that I hope goes out of style... still tries for body lines with the headlights... get it over with already and rake them all the way back to the A pillar. It's as if they won't be happy until then.

I'm still appalled by the fact that a company that was on the leading edge of the trend toward "driver oriented" cockpit controls has taken such a reversal and gone so flat in the recent models. It's hard to tell from the pic, but it looks like there might be a slight camber, but it's still pretty small.

I never liked the Z-4. I liked the Z-3 better.

Beautiful car, but if I see another middle-aged man trying to pick up women with one I'm going to up the chuck!

What is with that? It never ceases to amaze me that males think that a vehicle will get them the girls. It is so much more than car, smooth moves, and come on lines.

40+ males with creepy intentions steer clear please!
