You are right. I am also very happy about the car being more comfortable than the old one.
However, this understeer issue bothers me..
You know I hate understeer but unfortunately I became an expert because I have an AUDI.

Conclusion: It's just their opinion. To be honest, I'm not surprised. Evo is a magazine for car-mad racers. People who either track their car, visit the Nurburgring at least once a year, or take their cars down a country lane for a rag about. Basically, it's for people who drive just for the sake of driving. The Evo journo reviewing the car no doubt wanted a better version of the existing Z4, hoping that it was something closer to or better than the Boxster, but go something completely different (or different enough for them to be disappointed).
Talking of the Nurburgring, I wonder what the fastest time is with the new Z4? Also, I can't wait for the Stig to take it around the Top Gear test track. That should be interesting. We all know Clarkson will hate it...
