In Reply to: where did you get the crochure from?can I get one? posted by Lawrence on February 12, 2000 at 02:06:24:
: : I got the Z8 brochure today, but guess what?
: : My wife tried to install windows98 on the older pc that the scanner's on...but something went wrong...so now, I can't even boot the thing w/out a diskette! And of course, the scanner programs are all windows based, I can't do them from DOS. Therefore, no pics until I get that up and running again (seems I have to figure out how to back out the windows98, or install a version of DOS greater than 7.0). However...
: : Couple things that I can tell you I learned from the brochure:
: : - "revised production specifications for the Z8 and M5 engines are 394hp @6600rpm and 368 lb-ft of torque @ 3800rpm."
: : - Neon brake lights, front and rear turn signals, xenon headlamps and flowing side turn signals. {It has a gill like the M Roadster, but there's a neon yellow light on the horizontal that looks sharp.}
: : - still no exact 0-60 time--"well under 5 seconds".
: : - can choose between a sport and comfort "thottle mapping mode".
: : - standard run-flat performance tires 245/45R-18 front, 275/40R-18 rear (but then EVERYTHING is standard on this baby ;)
: : - body colored aluminum hardtop
: : - all aluminum spaceframe
: : - dual cupholders (can't forget those! Like anyone's going to get a cup of -anything- near mine.)
: : - DOHC 32-valve V-8, VANOS "steplessly" variable valve timing
: : - FULLY automatic lined soft-top
: : - steering-type: Rack & pinion
: : Any questions, let me know. I'll try to get pics up, but might take awhile, have to figure out what the wife did to the pc :-/
