Model history and curiosity

The BMW Z1 is a roadster type car (otherwise definable as a spider) produced by the German car manufacturer BMW from July 1988 to June 1991 in just 8,000 units.

Most of the specimens produced were sold on German territory with Italy as the main export country. After the end of production in 1991, BMW no longer had any specific spyder models in its catalog until the presentation of the Z3 in 1995.

The BMW Z1 was designed over a period of more than three years at BMW Technik GmbH. The development of the car is globally attributed to Dr. Ulrich Bez and his collaborators (Alexander Pregl, Rudolf Müller, Lutz Janssen, Wolf-Henryk Menke, Dieter Schaffner, Klaus Faust, Sabine Zemelka and Stephan Stark). However, the direction of the project was entrusted to Dr. Klaus Faust when Bez left BMW to move to Porsche in October 1988.

The Z1 is also the first of the Z series (initial of the word Zukunft, which in German means future) of BMW, a series characterized by sporty style and performance and an exclusively two-seater roadster-type layout, to which the Z3 also belongs , the Z4 and the Z8.
