I have a few rattles in my Z4 after 15,000 miles. I have 1-2 in the dash/nav/console area but most are from the top or mechanism. I have been in cars far worse over the same roads despite the Z4 being a convertible, and having an ultra stiff ride. I would expect it to be more susceptible to rattles.

Every BMW sedan I've owned has been among the tightest cars I've been in, but some have had miscellaneous noises, like door seals. But that could be because the cars are so tight and quiet otherwise, that you hear the slightest of noises.

Overall, I've had the HPFP recall, and one major failure in the Z4, the brake booster. The only other problem was a broken hinge in the trunk shelf for the top. They fixed that when they did the HPFP recall.
