Z Series Tested: BMW Z4 M Roadster.


The BMW Z models are a line of roadsters manufactured by German automaker BMW. The Z stands for Zukunft (German for future), and has been produced in four different series with six generations consisting of roadster, coupé, sports car, and concept variants. The introduction of the M Coupé and M Roadster in the Z3 line marked the first of the Z series to have a high-performance BMW M variant. The first generation Z4 also continued to offer M Coupé and M Roadster variants. The current Z4 (G29) uses BMW's (B58B30) inline-six, its platform is the basis for the current Toyota Supra.

BMW has presented again a new dream sports car: Z4 M roadster is called the youngest resident of Munich. The Bavarian open air is nevertheless powered by the 3,2 Liter Motor, which already drives the M3 as Coupé and Cabrio more than rapidly over the runway. We tested the 343 HP strong Z4 M roadster for you...

Just looking at makes me want to run for my life!!!

That car is disgustingly sick and it looks sooooo good.

I really wonder how much of a difference the power is going to make on the Z4. I think it should be lighter than the M3 so maybe a 0-60 of 4.5?
 
Im looking forward when this engine is being replaced with the new V8 from the M3

A swedish carmag drove the Z4M, the said the steering wasnt informative as the Boxster but Z4 was much much much better compared to Z3M. However, the testdriver was looking forward to drive the Coupe version..
 
I went to the local auto show a couple weeks back and sat in the Z4 M. Didn't do it for me. Sitting next to both an M5 and M6, it looks lackluster. No doubt it's a good ride and all that stuff but the design just didn't match up.
 
Agreed. This Z4 M is a disgrace to the M name. It doesnt even look special, but just like a slighty tarted up Z4. It wouldnt get a second look in on the streets.

Z4M Coupe isnt, the best handling M today.

I also feel that BMW was a bit cheap on the M make up. They just gave it a new bumper and four pipes. Some nice skirts and gills would have been good to.
 
I saw a Z4M Roadster, white with black interior. I saw in it and WoW the car feels like a racingcar, the driving experience must be awesome :bowdown:
