Where have you spotted a Z4 then

Post by DavidM »

I don't mean on the roads - but elsewhere

Last week on the TV Series NCIS - there was one - Sterling Grey

And new posters have gone up in London for PocketPCs - promoting the alternative use as GPS systems - and in the photo, there's a silver Z4

So where else are they popping up?

Not sure if this counts but I saw an article (while looking over the guys shoulder on the train) of a guy being caught doing 155MPH in a Z4 -- while on the phone! Didn't get to read it all as the guy turned the page :roll: . Not sure what the drivers punnishment was.

Atleast we know the limiters work... :)

And also that bizarre BMW TV ad featuring a Z4 and a cow! Something about how BMW engineers go to such detail as to get the sound of the car just right. (TiSilver Z4 with Red interior)

Tonights episode of Alias - a spy girl series on Bravo - saw one of the main villains, Sark, sat in one in the car park - no action for it though which was a tad disappointing - it was the traditional sterling grey :shake:

z4 grey in deleted scene on the DVD, "Paycheck". It's a scene where Ben Afflecks character is running away from the bad guys down an alley and runs into the back of the car. He's carrying a BMW key and tries it on the car but it doesn't work (works on a BMW bike later in the film)

Shame
