Review
The M Roadster is definately not a Z3 when it comes to handling and performance. It challenges the Z 8 for king of the true sports cars under 150K. It is the car for those who owned or wished they owned the big Austin Healy of the '60s, but with the difference of greater reliability, better handling, and much greater acceleration and top end. This is the car for twisting roads and long road trips.
Favorite Features
The "look" of both exterior and interior, backed by pure handling and power. To push this car through 40 MPH curves at speeds in excess of 100 MPH and accelerating to speeds approaching 160 MPH on straightaways is a thrill that can't be matched.
Suggested Improvements
Relacing the clock and outside temp gauges with an oil pressure and transmission temperatue gage, and Zenon HDI lights would make this car perfect.

Review
I really can't say much bad about the car...I love the looks and the aggressive style. The 3.0 is the way to go. Everyone who is an enthusiast wants the 3.0 over the 2.5 The motor is great, tranny superb, and the handling is out of sight. I have noticed fairly quick wear on the tires. But, I do drive it with authority..If you can find one in good shape get it..The car is gonna be a classic!!!!!
Favorite Features
acceleration, motor, handling!!!
Suggested Improvements
larger trunk, subwoofer is weak and rattles.

Review
I really, I mean REALLY like htis car! It is a drivers machine. It does everything you ask of it and more. It's FAST (expecially after getting it chipped = then it's REALLY REEAALLLY fast) It corners like a dream. Gas mileage has been outstanding - on a recent trip to Las Vegas at an average speed of let's just say 90+ I got 24.5mpg. Contrary to the review above I think it is one of the greatest looking cars around. It has hints of some of the most classic sports cars of all time throughout its integrated styling scheme. As for comfort, I can drive the car comfortably longer than the capacity of my bladder and gas tank.
Favorite Features
This is a drivers car - every thing is oriented towards performance oriented driving.
Suggested Improvements
Just a tad more leg room and a slightly higher molster on the front edge of the seat. Larger gas tank.

Review
After hearing less than steller reviews of BMW reliability - we bought the Z3 with some caution. However, the car has been just great. It is impossible not to have a grin on your face when you're driving. It is just a blast. I short drive in the Z3 can transform a bad day into a vacation.
Favorite Features
The engine and exhaust sound, the handling in tight corners.
Suggested Improvements
We bought an aftermarket armrest, otherwise it has all the creaks of a typical convertible - not necessarily a bad thing.

Review
This is my 3rd bimmer and, even though I loved the other two ('94 325is and '96 325iC), this is the best! This is what I wanted when I bought the 325iC - glad I waited until the Z3 came equipped with the 3.0! What a blast to drive and quite the head turner. I think I will hold on to this one for a while as I am not too impressed with the Z4's styling.
Favorite Features
It would be a shorter list to list the least favorite features! It's just a blast all around!
Suggested Improvements
I hate the plastic rear window. Too bad they didn't fix this before the Z4.

Review
this car is not for everybody it is a mean fast driving machine. the cockpit is cozy it is full with two people. it is geared for performance I dont sugest driving long distances. I have to get out to streach every hour or so. I raced a 94 corvete up a mountain and easly out handeled the vette. tight turns are a favorite you can throw it around and it keeps coming back for more. the DSC it a real life saver it only comes into play when I am driving at the edge I am scared to drive this car very fast without the DSC inguaged. if you want a fun driving machine I highly recomend this car. thanks for reading this rob
Favorite Features
best handling small car i have ever driven
Suggested Improvements
cockpit room limited need a bit more room for the driver and passenger. and always more horse power is a good thing.
