The Bertini GT25, a cool car?





Never heard of a Bertini GT25, look again, it's a body panel swap kit for a BMW Z3. The kit costs £3750

Cool?

Whilst the BMTroubleyou Z3 isn't a bad looking car, it's no great beauty either, and it's not exactly cool. (I'd say the lack of cool factor is more to do with the average Z3 owner being a git than the car itself)
But with this kit one could distance one's self from the stigma and embarrassment of BMW Z3 ownership, thereby gaining some cool points.
It's a lot better looking than the Z3 too!
So to sum up, I'd say cool.

Certainly an improvement on the overly fussy (Clown Shoe) styling of the Z3.
Makes it look more modern, almost as modern as an MGF.

For a kit car that is actually pretty aesthetically pleasing.
I like it!

Nope. Not my cup of tea at all.
Possibly the only way imaginable to make a BMW Z car even crappererer.

It will be all right in the end. If it isn't all right yet, then it is not yet the end..

definitely an improvement for the boring Z3.

I like front and back end - but I think they do not match... :nonod:

The rear light clusters are too square for me, they need a curve to fit in with the body shape.

The front end is stylish but the ar*e end is let down by the rear light clusters :yesnod: Very dated.

A bit too much of a "wanna be" to make it to cool, but as said previously an improvement on the Z3

Front end reminds me of a TVR. That said anything that makes a BMW not look like a BMW has got to be an improvement.
Against the original; cool-ish.

Lovely looking.. But still the same torsional stiffness of cottage cheese..
