BMW released Tuesday pictures and specs for the production versions of the Z4 Coupe, including the much-anticipated M-Series Coupe. However, there is some confusion in the motoring press...Autocar reports that the car is available with a 3.2-liter, 388 hp V8, good for 0-62 mph in 5.0 sec, while SPEEDTV.com reports a 4-liter, 388 hp V8. Meanwhile, the official specs for the M-series Coupe list only the 3.2-liter inline 6 from the M3, with 343 hp and 0-62 mph in... 5.0 sec! And, while Autocar cites both inline 6 and V8 variants of the M Coupe, SPEEDTV.com says the M will be available only with the V8.Perhaps they were confused by the non-M version of the Coupe - the Z4 3.0si Coupe, with a 265 hp inline 6 good for 0-62 mph in 5.7 sec. In any event, someone has their wires crossed... BWM press releases and more pictures follow after the jump, so you can draw your own conclusions! I'm putting my money on BMW's version of the story, for now.
