The model designation in BMW language, the "Z" represents Zunkunft, (Future) translated to English.
Anders Warming working under Chris Bangle is credited with inventing the "flame surfacing" cleverly layering the Z into the aspects of our Z4's.
At the time the styling was avante guard, and often overlooked, or decried.
However, now 20 years on is is considered a masterpiece, as are other Bangle inspired cars from the late 90's and early 2000's.
Like the Alfa Romeo coupes and convertibles circa 2000 ish, and the Fiat coupes from the mid 1990's
