Background

BMW Technik GmbH isn't notable enough to create an article? Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
When BMW Technik GmbH was re-integrated back into BMW? Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Add information about histor after BMW Technik GmbH was re-integrated back into BMW. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
"Although first developed in 1990, the concept was not shown until 1995." - any reason why? Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Design

"the 4.4 L (268.5 cu in) produced 355 PS (350 hp; 261 kW)" - what are "PS"? Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
If BMW Z18 is based on BMW Z3 I would add more information about BMW Z3 and one sentence about its next generations. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Other

This article may be interesting for article extension. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
I think it's possible to find more sources in different languages, and I would try to take more information from current references. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Links to redirects in references. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
I made some minor fixes. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
What about models Z13, Z21 and Z22? Are they related in any way to Z18? From the infobox I can see BMW Z22 is a successor, but there is no any information about it in the text. Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Is this possible to add more categories? Eurohunter (talk) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Replace parameter "Work" or "Publisher" with "Website" in references. Eurohunter (talk) 20:33, 2 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
@X750: It's notification. Eurohunter (talk) 16:58, 16 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hi @Eurohunter:, I think you should autofail this for now. I am busy for the next month, and I do not think I have enough time to improve this article within the allotted time period. Unless, of course, you do not mind. Your call. X750. Spin a yarn? _{Articles I've screwed over?} 06:37, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
