Yeah the 28i would have been my choice if I could afford a newer occasion or new car
I have not driven a lot yet but I'm around 1:10 (l/km) so that's ok.

Behind the steering wheel I was alright but had to put the seat on the longest setting. Hence it would not allow me to adjust the back inclination, especially on longer trips I like to change position a little bit. However my knees hit the dashboard sitting on the passenger seat...
Losing some weight is always nice but, quite frankly, I think it drives more than fine as a nice weather cruiser trough the Alps, along the lakes, to the beach....just awesome and the hardtop feels more secure.

Ah off course. Mine is without any 'gadgets': manual, no satnav, etc. Not even cruise control though I quite miss that tbh. I didn't even check if it was equiped with it when I bought it cause I didn't think a Z4 could be equiped without....oh well.
