Wow, I must say that this new Z4 looks the part. The old model did nothing for me, very disjointed styling in my opinion, but this, wow! Did "Bungle" have anything to do with this? Going to be very hard now to choose between this and other convertibles.

I love the styling / interior.
At 3400+ lbs, this is a pig compared to the previous generations. The old roadster / coupes weighed just around ~3050-3100. Granted, this one has another 45 horse power -- but I'm not sure if that's really enough to make up the difference in weight. And if there's really no M version of the car, that's just epic fail. At 3400 lb, I'd probably rather have the Saturn Sky Redline. |

Edit: Here are my results of checking. 6-Speed Gear Ratios: i35 vs 2008 M-Roadster 1st 4.055 4.35 2nd 2.396 2.50 3rd 1.582 1.67 4th 1.143 1.23 5th .0867 1.00 6th .681 .85 Diff 3.64 3.62 HP: i35 vs 2008 M-Roadster 300/5800 330/7900 TQ : i35 vs 2008 M-Roadster 300/1400 262/4900 Interesting contrast. I’d have to know more about the torque curves, but given the weight advantage of the M Roadster, it looks to me like the M will come out on top.

Z4 has moved up market just like the E90/E92. If you want a lightweight nimble roadster wait for the Z2 — or go support the flailing US auto industry. Totally fine by me! Quote:
The new Z4 will appeal to them, just like it did with the previous car and with the Z3. Polarizing design or not, women are attracted to this car because of its size and because it is a convertible... |

Luxury cruizer??....0 to 60 in 5 sec!!!....thats some serious cruizin!!! remember the listed weight includes fuel and driver...so its not that much heavier...the additional weight is mostly the hardtop.....lets not jump to conclusions and saying its a weight pig and see what it does around the track....everyone may be surprised with its lat G's and slalom speed.... until then...enjoy your low fat latte!

But then again having said all that, the BMW E85 Roadster which the new E89is a direct replacement for never grabbed my attention as much as the Coupé version of the same model.

It can't be raw and aggressive because it's designed by a woman? Uh, sexist much? |
