The BMW Z4 looks amazing, and the cabin oozes class. It's great to drive, with strong engines, capable handling and a supple ride. There isn't much space in the boot when you've got the roof down, and an Audi TT is more fun to drive.

My car is an old toyota corolla, its not even a sports car but its my 1st car bought by hard work. and every day i get into it, it really make's me feel special.^^

@KandiMan 3 года назад

Great job! 👍🏾

@SirLoinOfsteak85 11 лет назад

I know exactly how you feel - I feel the same about my old Renault Megane coupe (also my first car)...I don't care that it isn't the greatest car on the road; it's mine, and I bought it with money I earned.

@uhugvjkbkjh 11 лет назад

stupid review... "the good news is that the roof is electrically operated" how the hell wd you operate this type of roof manually ??

@ankurwalia6473 3 года назад

haha :D soft top roofs are offered manually in some cars

@cb1983wien 12 лет назад

so which roadster would you choose for this kind of money? the price is relatively high, but the performance (excluding the more expensive boxster) and the quality are top in its class (no reliability issues on current BMW's and the interior is awesome)

standard manual gearbox when in the video you can clearly see the auto one

@dsuess 6 лет назад

HAHA! "Standard 6-Speed manual gearbox" and he's using an automatic in manual-mode HAHAHA

@azmike3572 5 лет назад

Does it have three pedals? Yes? Then it's a manual!

@azmike3572 4 года назад

No. The three pedals would be gas, brake, and clutch.

@matfox6254 3 года назад

@@azmike3572 uh, but it doesn't have three pedals. So that means it is not a manual by your own stated rules.

@Slacking02 10 лет назад

BMW should have made a true ///M version with the out going V8

@jsuttonus 12 лет назад

Pick up a 2008 3.0si for a song (around $26K) and you'll have a Z4 with generous trunk space and faster than all but the current top of the line.

@halilsahiner369 10 лет назад

On 35is the 7 speed DCT transmission is standart and on 35i it is optional. On the rest of the Z4 line up, the 6 speed is standart and 8 speed transmission is optional. Correct me if I'm wrong.

all the z4 apart the 35is came with 6 speed manual

@mammothborderDC 11 лет назад

and the quality and heritage.

@CodeXana 11 лет назад

I would much rather drive the Z4 than the SL550 mainly because of the better technology in this vehicle, and its base price is less than half of that than the base SL550.

@cb1983wien 12 лет назад

the slk is very nice as well but its not cheaper than the z4 and all the aquivalent models are slower!

@rscosworthfan 11 лет назад

i like this car i just wish them front kidney grilles were a tad smaller

@marktrev19 11 лет назад

All engine's have six cylinders? Even the 20i and 23i four cylinder ones. The must keep the spares in the boot. Such an awesome car though. I think of the Etype when I see it

@flybobbie1449 6 лет назад

23i is six cyl.

@davidmulcahy4864 4 года назад

And the 2.0 replaced the 2.3. Only 6. when introduced. 4s came out in 2011.

@unanutriainfame 12 лет назад

obv.you don't say that in the car you are reviewing you have the manual one but maybe someone watching this can think that that's the manual one XD

@ForceUnleashed83 11 лет назад

I wish there was a coupe model as I refuse to buy a convertible and am even probably going to go for a Peugeot instead or just a different model bmw lol

@Krezo200 4 месяца назад

Excuse me?

@Tracertme 5 лет назад

Can a owner confirm, I thought it was four Airbags not six as What Car say at 2:47 ish...????

@flybobbie1449 3 года назад

I would say 4, the usual plus one each seat. Non near roof.

@ultravas 12 лет назад

In that case, then everyone driving a Ferrari 458 Italia should stop with their lunacy and all purchase Nissan GT-Rs right? Wrong. Because no one care's if it's a second faster to 60mph or can achieve over 200mph, you'll probably never push it past 120 anyway. It's the badge.

@ultravas 12 лет назад

No, but Whatcar is a British company, I assure you that, so forgive me for assuming that this British company would have a predominantly British audience (p.s. It does). I may have distilled it down for the ignorance of the previous commenter but yeah, it's not JUST the badge. I'm not your enemy here.

@mooddog07 12 лет назад

@harryc266 9 лет назад

Well it was published in 2012 so the 2014 version.

@NickLiang 9 лет назад

These are the 2009 - 1012 models, the straight 6 engine models. 2012+ started using turbo 4 cylinder engines.

@NickLiang 8 лет назад

***** I guess so, but it is only available in its twin turbo format for the 335i. They no longer use the naturally aspirated I6 engines in the Z4.

@NickLiang 8 лет назад

***** Do your research, yes it was. 2.5 and 3.0i was both naturally aspirated.

@cb1983wien 12 лет назад

in europe the nissan costs €41 and the z4 €49 which is not that huge of a difference especially if you also consider that the bmw will hold its value better. and the nissan's interior is very cheap looking plus personally i really dont like the looks of the 370z.

@ericgeorge5483 6 лет назад

This car costs around twice as much as an MX-5; is it twice as good? I don't even think it is as good!!

@Krezo200 6 лет назад

Eric George you cant compare them imho

@flybobbie1449 6 лет назад

Put them side by side, the MX5 looks like a toy car.

@JC-po3xu 5 лет назад

You're right. Whenever i pull up next to Miata, i feel like i came across a kid in a playground riding in his batter toy car.

@flybobbie1449 3 года назад

Recently sat in friends latest MX5. Top of window frame level with my eyes. The interior seems cheap and plain. Top of doors colour coded with the outside. Get that on cheap cars like Fiat, not even padded.

do you mean this z4 is not reliable?

@flybobbie1449 3 года назад

@@commendatore2516 Had my 2009 23i, 8 years, now 90k miles. No engine or transmission problems. Known faults, tail lights let in water, easy fix. Roof solenoids best changed at 5-6 years. A couple of lose connectors. Manufacturing fault in wiring can cause boot latch problem. Go to the z forums to fix.

@Krezo200 8 лет назад

I had both, the e85 looks 'naked' in the inside, i prefer the newer looks, maybe cause i hd the e85 a long time and the e89 is my current ride but the e85 was much sportier und better to ride in curves
