On the lower-cost side, MGs, Triumphs, Alfa Spyders, Morgans, and yes, the early '53 'Vette, which was designed to emulate those Euro fore-fathers. Open top, great sound, beautiful countryside, pretty lady and lots of fun, thats what these cars (and the Z4, E89 & E85 and Z3 before it) are made for. That's why I bought mine, my two E85s before it, and exactly what I use it for - and pretty much only that. I hope you find something that makes you happier soon.

Agree 100%. But . . . this is a thread about the M3 v. Corvette, not the Z4!
