BMW Z4 M Roadster TC Kline Racing

Tuning company TC Kline Racing have created a carbon fibre bodied version of the Z4 roadster for public consumption. Powered by the same 3.2 litre straight 6 found in the BMW M3, but weighing 180 kgs (400 lbs) less than the standard Z4 roadster, the Z4 CR is clothed in a fairly faithful replica of the Z4’s bodywork, albeit in carbon fibre composite.

Wider wheel arches, a deeper front bumper, more pronounced side skirts and a rear diffuser all add to the aerodynamic abilities of the roadster while offering a more muscular appearance. The original Z4 was a ‘love it or hate it’ design, this is no different.

Inside, TC Kline teamed up with Recaro to create a unique interior for the Z4 CR, featuring lightweight one piece race seats upholstered in Alacantera and leather and fitted for a racing harness.

Underneath the carbon bodywork TC Kline have fitted the Z4 CR with KONI adjustable suspension, their in-house designed front camber plates which allow for faster turn-in and better steering feedback, and upgraded PFC (Performance Friction Corp.) brake calipers and rotors.
