BMW Z4 COUPE WILL BE OUT IN JUNE 2006. M COUPE RETURNS.

Munich. Following strong consumer reaction to the concept Z4 Coupe at the 2005
Frankfurt and Tokyo Auto Shows, BMW has confirmed that both the Z4 Coupe and an
M version, the M Coupe will enter series production.

Visitors in Frankfurt and Tokyo were captivated by the car's stylish body with
its unique silken matte finish, tailored in the very best style of a classic
sports coupe. While the driving dynamics potential of the vehicle was clear in
its strong, purposeful lines, equally appealing to visitors was the striking
interior design.

To be produced in Spartanburg, S.C., the first vehicles will be delivered to
customers as early as June 2006.

The proven 255 horsepower (U.S. SAE net) in-line 6-cylinder engine with its
high output and lightweight magnesium and aluminum construction promises
superior agility and high performance. It not only catapults the Z4 Coupe to
the top of the international competitive field but is also demonstrates the
enormous performance capacity of the fundamental BMW Z4 Roadster concept -
which forms the basis of the coupe.

BMW is also working to produce a high-end variation as quickly as possible and
the result will be the return of the M Coupe, based on the new Z4 Coupe.
Powered by the exciting 3.2-liter high-rpm engine, familiar from the BMW M3 and
winner of many international awards, it will also come out in June 2006.

New images of the Z4 Coupe, along with the original concept study will be
available in high resolution from November 23rd on the BMW media website
