My old dealership bought any Z8 they could find. The owner has 4 of them...2 standard and 2 Alpina. They buy them and turn around and sell them again.
The Z8 is still one of my fav. cars to drive and I regularly drove Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, etc. They're just too damned small, with the hardtop on them...they're not meant for tall guys, like myself.
BMW Z9 in the works!!
