Well, the Z4 is light... naah. Let it remain in leagues with the Solstice, Miata, etc., etc. We have plenty competition. ;D

I don't like the roofline of this one in its coupe guise. The original Z4 coupe they started making in 2006 was awesome-looking and is one of my second choices if I couldn't squeeze the Camaro. It's too bad, because otherwise the new Z4 is much better in all other aspects, especially the front end.

I dont like this body style as much as the the 2006-08 model. I might change my mind when the M car is revealed. I would definatly buy a 06-08 Z4M.. Awesome little car that weighs 3000 pounds and has over 300 hp and 300 ft pounds of torque. The new car is a lot heavier, but I am sure it would be really fun to autocross and cost around 50k..

Not bad, not bad.

I haven't been a big fan of the line though.

Very nice but I think I prefer the 06-08 as well. Agreed with NuclearEnvoy, Z4 is on my list of potential next year purchases.
