The BMW Z1 is the strangest modern BMW -- and most people have never even heard of it. Today I'm reviewing the BMW Z1, and I'm going to show you why the BMW Z1 is so weird.

You totally missed one of the weirdest and quirkiest features of this (or any) car. The rear muffler was shaped like an aerofoil and acted like a rear spoiler to provide down force. That’s what the gigantic air gap between the trunk lid and the rear bumper is for. It allows the air that flows over the top of the muffler/spoiler to exit the rear of the car

*Fun fact:* The "1" on the Z1 badge is as German as it gets. That's how Germans write the number 1, with an up-down motion. It's also why Germans put a cross on their "7" in order to better differentiate between 1 and 7.

Thank you for this video! I'm German and I can tell you, they are pretty rare in Germany. That time, it was produced, I was visiting the factory plant and I was able to see, who the Z1 has been produced. It was so cool. A lot of was made by hand. I saw the most of the available colors. Very pretty. You missed one thing, which is common on sportscars today: a defusor at the rear. The Z1 has a kind of that. Pay attention ed nation to the gap between the rear bumper and the bottom of the trunk hood. This is the outlet of the air. The rear muffler is formed like a wing so the air goes over the muffler through this gap and produces downforce. That is one reason why the opening of the trunk is not that big ;)

BoxingWave i read a bit about it...its basicaly an e30 convertible with hide-away doors...BMW thought the trend in the late 80s was gonna be door-less cars...like the jeep wrangler or other cars, so they made this...needless to say it didnt sell all that well because it costed twice as much as an E30 and its gimmicks like detachable body panels just wasnt all that appealing

8:07, I think I found one of the conclusion for the BMW Z1, this roadster isn't recommended for accidents or crash as Doug mentioned that the body panels are plastic instead of metals. While the panels may crack after several years, an unexpected accident or crash may make matters worse. In my opinion, this roadster should be driven with fully 100% caution for those who own of rent a Z1.

That sounds like a great plan, my friend. The other day while I was cleaning my counter tops I noticed a strange buzzing sound coming from my refrigerator - I listened carefully and had to stop wiping to make it out, but sure enough, it was buzzing away. Now, I don't know if it was just a fluke or if it was just working extra hard to cool down the delicious coffee ice cream I had gotten for me and my wife, but it made me realize the general good fortune I've had with this house. Not much has gone wrong, and the things that have - haven't been beyond my capacity to fix! Now all that could change in a heartbeat, but as long as I know god is looking over me and my family - I know everything will be alright. Come to think of it, I could probably stand to grease the rollers in my windows too. There's nothing quite like the function of a freshly greased window unit!
