Thanks!

The 1M and Z4 are very very different, but compliment each other quite well. The 1M has better brakes, steering, suspension, and power (although a cheap tune on the Z4 will fix the power). When I drive the 1M, it screams to be driven hard. Everything is so tight and precise. When driving it, I try to push every corner, every on-ramp, etc. It can be almost a bit frustrating when sitting in traffic because of that. When driving it, I am always thinking, "I can't wait to get back to the track again!".

With the Z4, I am quite content to drive along with the speed of traffic, top down, wind blowing, listening to the Sat radio. I can punch it into an on-ramp for more thrills, but I don't get frustrated if I can't because of a slow driver in front of me. It's much more "comfortable" to drive and more relaxing. Of course it looks WAY better!

They are different tools for different purposes - both extremely good and extremely fun, but in different ways. I hope that makes sense.
