The German automaker BMW produced a car from 2000 to 2003 that was the BMW Z8, it was given a model code E52 BMW. BMWZ8 is the production variant of the 1997 Z07 concept car. Very few changes were made with practical and regulatory consideration for the production model. The Windshield of the Z8 was extended upward, and a larger front air dam was fitted. These two changes were done to provide aerodynamic stability and a reasonably placid cockpit environment. The four spoke steering wheel of the concept car was replaced by three spoke design. The hardtop was changed from a double-bubble from with a tampering fairing to a single dome with a truncated convex backside. To allow easy operation of the power soft top the concepts exotic drivers side was eliminated. The Z8 remained extremely faithful to the concept car despite of the changes that were made. Through the use of an expensive MIG-welded aluminum space frame the complex compound curved were also preserved. Without the race-style center lug nut the Z8 retained the concepts five spoke wheel design, albeit. This car had an aluminum chassis and body and used a 4.9 liter (4941 cc) valve V8 that developed 400 hp (294 kW) and 500Nm (363ft-lbf). This engine was built by BMW Motorsport subsidiary and was shared with the E39 m5 in order to provide the car with 50/50 weight distribution the engine was located behind the front axle. As with most BMW product, its top speed was electronically limited to 155 mph (249 km/h)); the cars maximum top speed with an unlocked chip was 186 mph (300 km/h).the car included an innovative use of neon exterior lighting. The tail lights and turn indicator are powered by neon tubes that offer quicker activation than standard light bulbs and expected to last for life. Z8 was shipped with color-matching metal hardtop with rear defroster. To compliment the lines of the roadster Z8 hardtop was designed from the outset no like many accessory hardtops that are provide practical rather than stylistic considerations. The power windows and controlled mirrors were controlled by a simple instrument, a number of convenience functions were integrated into multifunction controls in order to keep the interior uncluttered, the center mounted instrument cluster was canted slightly toward the driver. With an intention of having an unimpeded view of the hood and the road ahead, displacement of these gauges to the middle of the dash were done. In the final model year of 2003, the Z8 model was augmented by the Alpina V8 roadster, this model is a departure form the hard-edged sporting focus of the original car and elements of the new touring intent. Instead of the original 6 speed manual and 4.9 liter (S62) engine featured in earlier Z8s, the Alpina came only as an automatic, using a 5-speed BMW Steptronic transmission allied to a downgraded 4.8 L Alpina-tuned V8 motor from the BMW X5 SUV. Relaxed suspension tuning was used in order to complete the cars transition from sports car to boulevardier. . Headlights by State:
