BMW Z8 | Other Bond Cars | Other Bond Vehicles | Villianous Vehicles

The Z8's inclusion in The World Is Not Enough was the culmination of a product pacement deal worked out with BMW that started with Goldeneye in 1995 (Z3) and continued with Tomorrow Never Dies in 1997 (750iL).

The Z8 didn't see much action in the movie, and met it's demise at the blades of one of the King Buzzsaw Helicopers. The Z8 was introduced at MI6 headquarters, drove through the Azerbaijani oil fields, and saw combat action on the docks outside of Valentin's caviar factory beside the Caspian Sea outside of Baku. As the Z8 is being sawed in half, Bond remarks: "Q's not going to like this!". The Z8 was equipped with two retractable, side-mounted Surface-to-Air Missile Launchers hidden behind the forward side fender cooling vents, remote control capability, and, amazingly, "six beverage cup holders".
