Your point re: a Ferrari is well taken, however, with all due respect, you are in error. There is in fact *NOTHING* that can truly replace a Ferrari. They say "Porsche [has] no substitute," well then Ferrari simply cannot BE substituted ... even if there were an attempt to build such a car.

LeMansX5 - I think I slipped it in while you were busy appreciating Kevin's Freaky Friday pix... Like Sanguru says, you are the king of the spyshots.

Wondering why BMW would reuse the Z8 model number so soon. I thought they wanted to created some exclusivity with the Z8 similar to the 507 model - rare, limited production, etc.

I may be one of the few who like the Z8, probably because I'm such a fan of classic 1950's 2 seaters like the aforementioned BMW 507, Austin Healy 3000, and Jag XKE. But gawd, the old Z8 hard top is truly hideous.
