I'm from vancouver B.C. I drive a M5. Anyways, I'd like you guys to know, that if you go to playland (amusement park)in vancouver and look at the old bumper cars. There is a bumper car there styled EXACTLY like the z8. Same grill, same light with the two projectors, and foglights in the grill. I think thats where the designer took the look. hehe sorry guys but it's the truth. I SWEAR!
