Pour one out for the BMW Z4. The German automaker is wrapping up production of its beloved droptop. As the roadster bows out, BMW will produce a very limited Final Edition model based on the Z4 M40i—but it's pretty pricey.

BMW offers the Z4 Final Edition in one configuration. The only choice a customer has to make is which transmission they want—the eight-speed Steptronic or the six-speed manual. The manual comes with the Edition Handschalter Package, which includes unique software mapping for the rear dampers, steering, traction control, and M Sport differential.

Under the hood, the turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine produces the same 382 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque as any other M40i. It wears staggered 19-inch front and 20-inch rear Dual-Spoke Bicolor 800M wheels.

BMW has decided on the rest.

Every Z4 Final Edition wears the same BMW Individual Frozen Black metallic paint, with the Shadowline Package as standard. This adds gloss-black trim to the mirror caps, kidney grille, lower air intake, and exhaust finishers. The Z4 also features the Moonlight Black soft top and red brake calipers.

Inside, the car has red contrast stitching on the instrument panel, center console, floor mats, door panels, and M Sport seats, which are trimmed in black Vernasca leather and Alcantara. The car will also remind you that you're driving the Z4 Final Edition with the unique door sill plates.

Other standard features include the Driver Assistance Package, a Harmon Kardon sound system, and the Premium Package, which adds ambient lighting, a head-up display, and more.

BMW will build the Z4 Final Edition from February to April next year in "very small numbers." Regardless of the gearbox, each one will cost $78,675 (the price includes the $1,175 destination charge). The regular 2026 Z4 M40i starts at $69,575.

The automaker doesn’t specify exactly when Z4 production will end. The Toyota Supra, which is the same car with a twist, ends production next March. The Japanese automaker has already announced it’ll launch a successor, but BMW hasn’t announced anything about a fourth-generation Z4.
