Looking forward to more of the new N20 but as I said, the "feel" and the "sound" (crucial to BMW-philes) needs some work.

This is expected from a 4-cyl turbo or otherwise. Thanks for the honest review. I believe a 4cyl is acceptable as a base car for a 1, 3, x1, x3 etc, but the Z4 is held to higher standards - it should have a throaty 6 cylinder or higher - NA or otherwise, all models from base to ... (M?)
