BMW Z1: What BMW's Weirdest Car Is Like To Drive

You might know of the Z1 for its weird, vertically retracting doors, but what it's actually like to drive and live with? Alex and Matt spent a day with one to find out...

Wait they just casually drive past a m1 in the Starbucks car park and on the street and don’t even acknowledge it 😂😂

MAKE AN INTRODUCTION VIDEO FOR YOUR NEW PRESENTERS.

I only clicked on this video to look at the comments and I’m glad I did😂16k views and it’s been out for a day with a channel with 3.1 mil subscribers is mad

[TomGayler]

I remember when Car Throttle used to get hundreds of thousands of views on their content, even after Alex Kersten left.

[Tinman]

Car throttle, a new car each week... and presenters 😅

[Sithhy]

Guess management still doesn't allow you to buy cars lol

[AliWaye-cl]

Oh no another two who’s gonna have there own channel soon

I used to be a windscreen fitter / automotive glazier. Worked on a z1 in about 2001. Never seen another one since. The doors are crazy. That particular car also had camo print leather seats. Weird.

[alfpetzer]

Spectacular to drive. Light, very open, straight six.

[electrikoptik]

The current lineup of BMW i models makes the Z1 look like the prettiest car even made.

[JMc.D]

People really need to move on from this whining about the presenters. If you preferred the old crew go and watch them. If you didn’t then happy days.

I would love a product like this they need to revisit this technology in 2024 and see if they can make it even more practical


Absolutely love this door concept

[minimina]

I love how it was designed to be a futuristic car. it really embodies the idea of futurism from the 80s

[nmeister]

7:36 I love it how the M1 just casually appears, parked on the side of the road 😂 Also im sure this Z1 also featured as a random car passing by in the M1 video too 🧐😅

[mattusgig]

It’s a shame no car makers make anything “fun” anymore 😢

[cosmicreddevil]

I love that car. I imagine those doors on a modern car that would be awesome. What a crazy idea but that was car companies back in the day. They loved just coming up with random things and sticking them on cars. I wish modern car design had this sort of designing style. Another good video, look forward to the next 👍

Came to see what Alex and the guys are up to these days, but yeh they're obviously gone. Not the same without them. They were car throttle, it's like top gear without Clarkson, May and Hammond.

[i.m.ps.]

​ @CarThrottle at least you read the comments. Whoever is responsible for this great job! I am sure you are still waiting for things to calm down so the numbers come back up. Thing is, you destroyed the credibility of this channel so what is the purpose of watching this if we cannot bond with the presenters? Chances are they may come and go as the management, who clearly has no clue, wishes. Acting as if nothing happened, not even introducing the new presenters is clearly a very stubborn decision that must have been forced by someone whith enough authority and the certainty that they know better. Let that someone present it then, they must be unfirable enough for us to form a bond with them!

[RRobbin]

The doors are a reason to buy this car

[MikkellTheImmortal]

As a BMW and Jeep fan, this is like a strange hybrid of the two that I want.
