How come this car is never talked about by anyone anymore? In

Because it's shit

Nobody, I mean nobody can afford one, and all the ones that still exist are pretty much garage queens.

It's appreciated so much to the point of attainability, with most examples being worth more than $200k. Still one of the best looking BMW's made, but it really is just another boutique collector car at this point.

>quite honestly the most beautiful car ever built.
eh, looks great from the back, but that's about it.
you can bet your ass it's unreliable as fuck and maintenance costs a fortune.

Because that shit is more than anyone can afford, pal.

Sammy Hagar DDs an Alpina Z8, I've seen it on the street a bunch of times, definitely a great looking car. The people I know who worked on them said they were really well put together. It used to be not uncommon to see them but they've all been stashed away to collect dust and value it seems.

>releasing the z8 before the z4, z5, z6, and z7
>they also skipped the z2 for some reason

What did BMW mean by this?

>Aston Martin skipped the DB8 and DB10

It's a miata rip-off

>fresh chip n seal

The irony of that pic is the owner of that car would never drive it on that road in a million years. Or even be in the area in the first place since he might have to interact with some smelly poor living there in flyover country.

They had discontinued the 8 series and at the time 8 was their highest class

Still is too. Waiting for the new 8...

Db10 was a one-off (ish) for Bond movie
