2002 BMW Z8 TEST DRIVE | Motoring TV Classics

It's been almost 20 years but Graeme has not forgotten the BMW Z8....
The Z8 was originally conceived as a concept to celebrate the iconic 507. It was such a hit when it was shown, BMW brought it to market. When I did the original test in California it was a head-turner that literally stopped traffic — one guy actually followed me for almost 25-km just to find out what it was and where he could get one. The full Test Drive did exactly the same thing — it became a magnet that attracted more onlookers than any car before or after it.
Only around 6,000 hit the road worldwide and so in spite of its relatively young age, it has already become a prized collectable.
