Does anyone here know if Z8s share drive train with other BMWs?

This seems like an awfully good deal to me (same place I bought my Box):

I think the M5. But id rather have the Alpina version, they are the rare and collectable ones (they all are, but more so the Alpina)

A customer that comes to my job has a Z8,the first thing popped into my head is how ugly the interoir is,the pictures just reminded me.

Honestly, they may be rare and collectible but the interior is plain ugly and disfunctional (What's the tach doing a yard to the right of the driver?). Also, the Z4 (even the old Z3) exterior looks much better. The back of the Z8 looks like a bad copy of Alfa Romeo. I'd find it very hard to love this car. Just my opinion.

funny thing is I used to think this car was incredible until I looked at these pics! I don't mind the interior overall but I did notice and have to agree with what the hell is "the tach doing a yard to the right of the driver?" all the gauges for the matter....pretty funny

Reading up on it, apparently the aluminum frame is a problem, with distorted shock towers etc. THATS a deal breaker.

watch this....maybe it will change your mind on alpina (http://youtube.com/watch?v=5qqhuPYv-Jw)

i think the only thing that car has going for itself is that it was in 007
