epbrown,

You are an a-hole. hkz786 is only offering an insight into how the Z4 might look based on the most recent spy shots of the finished car during it's shake down testing.

I and I reckon many here think what he is doing among others are very worth while and appreciated.

P.S.

hkz786, nice work once again and please keep it up.

Oh and before any of you jump on my user name for being "cycler", I ride motorcycles thats where the name comes in.

Wow epbrown fuckin lay off of him. What the hell makes his opinion so offensive to you?

He claimed that in his opinion the chops are 90% accurate. There's no basis for you to get your panties in a bunch over that. Seriously man, go relieve some stress or something.

Hks provides more to the general car forum than most users on here anyways, so I think he deserves more respect than you're giving him. Although, I'm gonna be honest and say that those chops are maybe only around 75% accurate or though just because that camo makes it near-impossible to decipher all the nuiances in the design.

thanks for comments guys, and hey, I can handle 75% looking back I think you're probably right. I've spotted quite a few things that arent accurate!

What a bunch of pansies, I went easy on the guy.

Look, his opinion in the first post was stupid, period, and I said so. By his own admission, his first picture was a photoshop of a Z4. How, by the Evil Eye of Camalapartis, is mildly tweaked picture of a Z4 a "90% accurate" depiction of a completely different car? The cockpit is the same and it still shows a canvas top, by Crom!

He's more than welcome to having a stupid opinion, as well as posting photoshops, and I'd fight for his right to post. But I'm equally right in saying what I think, and all of you are more than welcome to chime in as well. Some people like them, some don't, that's life.

I respect people's opinions more when they can explain their thinking and defend them, and it elevates discussion when opinions aren't just strongly held, but well thought-out. I personally have found his defense of his opinion pretty poor, and you guys aren't helping. Odds are most of you don't care. Eh.

This thread is pretty funny.

Keep the chops comin', though! Makes me thankful that I have what I have and not what the next Zed iteration will end up being.

I said I wouldnt, I know, but I swear this is the last time I respond to you...

- other people can see you're wrong, why cant you?

- I admitted it wasnt 100% accurate, so yeah the cockpit isnt the best. Though I did make the bootlid wider (according to spyshots) to accomodate the new hardtop roof.

-You said that BMW isnt lazy like Porsche, have you seen the new 7 series interior? exterior spyshots dont rack up to much at the moment either. Hence the poor chops made at the moment. No offence to the guys making them though, they're just producing what they see!

I also said that everyone sees things under the camo differently! That's how I roughly see the new Z4, I even produced a crappy pic to show the rough design based on the spypic! So who cares if it doesnt look like a whole new model?

Man do yourself a favour, back off, other people have even commented on what you've said...I'm def not going to even reply anymore.

ever notice that the ones that make their dumb ass comments are the ones that are just pissed that they didnt come up with anything to show or say. Its called jealousy.

There are good chops in here, and I edited one of the photos I took of my car below... I know it isnt that great, (the perspective is off, blurry, etc etc) but this is the only change I want in 2009!

Holy crap...where are the chill pills when you need em. Not sure where all the anger is coming from. All I know is that its highly doubtful that the nextgen Z is going to look better than my current MC, still hard to tell with all the armor/disguise paint spy shots tho.

hks786 - awesome work on the chops. I've worked in Photoshop before, and I know that it takes years to master the technique to the level of what you've done - great work. Keep it coming!

Wow, hks786 we're much nicer on the E90 forum I guess? Haha calm down people, he's just trying to help everyone out and give them a general impression of what may come in the future.

Keep up the good work

Photoshop is photosop, in my opinion when it comes to photoshop on spyshots it will never look like the real thing because the chop would have the creater's own taste and own thinking since it is based on a spyshot!
Of course he would also base on a z4 as well... if not what should he base on? Everything on his own? A Civic? A Corolla? No way because you would just say the chop's accuracy is below 50% blah blah blah....

But mehh..... it is a photoshop forum, everyone is just trying to play around and try to give us some insight on how "may" it look with their uber photoshop skills that a lot of ppl don't have. In his opinion 90% accurate is just his comments saying 90% accurate compare to the spyshot.. not the real thing. Even the car in the spy won't exactly be the final production unit. I myself play with photoshop too and there are efforts needed to produce a nice chop like that.

In my opinion we should respect the chops/the creaters! But ya, is my opinion anyways, and some people just hate other's opinions.

Regardless, nice work hks786!!! Keep them coming.

Well... however ugly the next iteration will / may be, I trust that BMW will not be compromising the driving experience. That alone would be enough of a factor to consider an upgrade.
