- BMW Z4 sDrive35is Limited Edition Mille Miglia was unveiled last week.

MUNICH, Germany — BMW is building only 99 copies of the Z4 sDrive35is Limited Edition Mille Miglia, to commemorate the 70th anniversary of its stunning 1-3-5-6 finish in the storied Italian road race in 1940. Not surprisingly, all 99 cars will be sold only in Italy. A nice tie-in is that BMW repeated the 1 and 3 parts of the famous finish at the 2010 event on Sunday in vintage 328s.
Unveiled at the 2010 event, the Z4 sDrive35is Limited Edition Mille Miglia features a Polaris Metallic matte silver paint scheme, with an M Sport aero kit, matte-black grille, 19-inch dark-chrome alloy wheels and Mille Miglia badging.
The cockpit is trimmed in Alcantara and leather with red stitching, M Sport steering wheel, special floor mats and trim.
Power is supplied by BMW's 335-horsepower twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-6, coupled with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox.

How sad, no manual. In this AT-glutted world, I thought BMW would keep the faith.
