Hey guys! New to z4 questions !!! Help
Hey guys I am new to the forum and from Australia Sydney , so if I am posting in the wrong section please let me know or kindly remove it.
So my questions is, is it a good go to sell my 2011 Audi a5 3.0tdi for a BMW z4 sdrive30i 2011 I know answers might be a bit biased, but I would like to see some neutral opinions and advices. One of my worries is, I love my music. Audi offers bang and olufsen sound system which in my opinion is very good. As for BMW I am under the impression it's call BMW professional audio pack which are Logitech speaks? Another question is, I am looking to get a manual transmission, how does the clutch go? Is it durable? As I am getting a 2nd hand car. 3rd question, I've seen these black BMW *rims on z4? Are they from dealer or aftermarket? My email is wilsonrx7@hotmail.com Thank you very much!! |

2 totally different cars. If you want a roadster, get one. They're great!
Some people complain about the the premium sound system offered in the Z4. I have it and have no complaints. You can always upgrade with an aftermarket set up. As for the clutch, it depends on how well the previous owner shifted. there's no answer for your question as to how long your clutch will last. How many miles are on the car? I'd drive it to see how the clutch feels. Bmw does sell black wheels, but you need to find out if they are made for the Z4. Check out the BMW website for accessories.

Hi Wilson
Apples and oranges... Its more about being able to live with a 2 seater imo. In the Z4 the top down ride is exhillarating, and we have the best weather to appreciate it. I do it in Brisbane all the time. With road, car, wind and traffic noise the premium sound is about delivering a recognisable sound while driving. Its not about creating an opera house environment. If you want both at the same time, you will always be dissappointed. I have the premium sound in my DD, and while I dont care if the quality is sublime, I can always hear it clearly when I am cruising the streets or racing around the track. Cant talk about the manual box - couldn't even option it on mine, but I dont miss it very often.

Thanks for the reply guys! You are all very helpful people!
I can easily live with the 2 seat, I know BMW have very poor interiors, even on the 2011 m5 my brother have. I find it not worth comparing to even my much cheaper a5. What I want to know most from you guys is, would the driving pleasure like everyone say on BMW true? Is it that good? |

Ps
I really dislike the understeer of the a5 and the whole Quattro being too safe. If the driving dynamic of z4 is really that good. Then I'll give it a try! |

Why don't you just test drive the car? Driving preference is subjective. You may not like what others like, so check it out for yourself.
