It would be easy to associate the BMW Z8 with other retro-revival cars of the 1990s and early 2000s, but that would hardly be the case. BMW had already honoured its past with the sporty Z3 roadster, after all. So, the Z8 instead married the muscular V-8 engine from BMW’s Motorsports division with the considerable design talent of lead exterior pen Henrik Fisker. This was to be the company’s halo car and would boldly launch BMW into the 21st century.

The Z8, nearly identical to the Z07 show car from the 1997 Tokyo salon, was unlike any BMW since the M1. Its styling evoked the BMW 507—the design icon that so nearly bankrupted the fledgling automaker in the 1950s. Under its sumptuous curves sat an M5-sourced S62 4.9-liter V-8 paired to a six-speed manual transmission. The Z8 had the power to back up its stunning styling.

About 5,700 examples were hand-built in Munich over a three-year run, after the Z8 made its silver screen debut in the 1999 James Bond blockbuster The World is Not Enough. Following the Z3’s role in Goldeneye, the Z8 starred in a short but memorable scene with Mr Bond behind the wheel. Nevertheless, it captivated fans worldwide and proved that BMW was a force to be reckoned with.

The Z8 offered here is a U.S.-delivery example that was first registered in California and remained stateside with its original owner until 2012. It was then converted to European specification and exported to the UK. Notably, its original specification parts will be included with the sale and the car can be converted back if so desired by its next owner. Furthermore, the car shows just 7,000 miles since new and also includes its original factory hardtop.

Truly one of the most recognizable BMWs of the 21st century, the Z8 is nothing short of an icon and deserves to be treated as such. Suitable enough for James Bond, the Z8 is an excellent grand tourer and sports car, one that begs to be enjoyed on the open road.

Il serait facile d'associer la BMW Z8 à d'autres voitures des années 1990 et 2000 caractérisées par leur "rétro-design", mais cette comparaison ne serait pas légitime. D'ailleurs, BMW avait déjà fait honneur à son passé avec le sportif roadster Z3. De son côté, la Z8 mariait le V8 musclé de la division BMW Motorsport et l'extraordinaire talent de styliste d'Henrik Fisker, designer indépendant. Cette voiture allait constituer le fer de lance de la marque et lui ouvrir en fanfare les portes du XXIe siècle.

La Z8, presque identique au show-car Z07 du Salon de Tokyo 1997, ne ressemblait à aucune autre BMW depuis la M1. Son dessin évoquait la 507, cette icône esthétique qui avait failli provoquer la faillite du jeune constructeur, dans les années 1950. Les courbes sensuelles dissimulaient le V8 de 4,9 litres S62 d'origine M5, associé à une transmission à six rapports manuels. La Z8 disposait de la puissance que méritait son style superbe.

Quelque 5 700 exemplaires ont été produits à Munich de façon artisanale, sur une durée de trois ans. La voiture débutait sa carrière en 1999 sur le grand écran dans le film de James Bond, Le monde ne suffit pas. Après la présence de la Z3 dans Goldeneye, la Z8 apparaissait dans un scène courte mais mémorable, conduite par James Bond. Quoi qu'il en soit, elle fascinait les amateurs du monde entier et prouvait que BMW était une force dont il fallait tenir compte.

La Z8 proposée ici est un exemplaire américain dont la première immatriculation était californienne et qui est resté aux États-Unis jusqu'en 2012 entre les mains de son premier propriétaire. Cette voiture a été ensuite convertie aux spécifications européennes et exportée en Angleterre. Il est important de noter que les pièces d'origine, correspondant aux spécifications américaines, seront livrées avec la voiture, ce qui permet de la convertir à nouveau si son nouveau propriétaire le souhaite. De plus, cette Z8 n'a parcouru que 7 000 miles (11 265 km) depuis l'origine, et elle est accompagnée de son hard-top d'origine.

La Z8, BMW la plus marquante du XXIe siècle, est une véritable icône et mérite d'être traitée comme telle. Capable de convenir à un héros comme James Bond, la Z8 est à la fois une excellente routière et une vraie voiture de sport, qui ne demande qu'à emmener ses occupants pour qu'ils profitent des routes ouvertes.
