My Take: The “Land Shark” has started to show it’s age, so it looks like BMW is looking to push these cars out the dealer lots a bit. Note the slightly lower MFs and fairly high residual values. There’s a new Z4 in the horizon. Check it out! Not exactly getting my blood boiling with excitement, but I’m rather sick of looking at the current Z4.
