I tried the Z-3, and found it bland in styling, a tight fit physically, and short on some of the features I wanted in a sports car. The Z-4 responds to all of these issues: it is eye- catching, easy and comfortable on all kinds of roads and for long distance touring, and has an up-to-date set of power accessories, GPS, sound system, etc. It is a car for those who enjoy interacting with their machine.

AFTER DOING SOME EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THE AVAILABLE ROADSTERS, I NARROWED MY SEARCH THIS PAST SUMMER AND SELECTED THE 2003 Z-4. THE CAR IS NOTHING LESS THAN A REAL JOY TO DRIVE. THE 2.5 WITH MALDIVE EXTERIOR AND BEIGE TOP/INTERIOR DRAWS LOOKS FROM EVERYONE WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD. OPTIONS THAT I PUT ON MINE INCLUDED THE PREMIUM AND CONVENIENCE PACKAGES ALONG WITH AUTOMATIC TRANS. THE MOTOR HAS A DISTINCT GROWL THAT IS UNIQUE. KIND OF LIKE WHAT A HARLEY OWNER FEELS WHEN HE/SHE IS ON THEIR HARLEY. TO SAY IT THE BEST, THERE IS NOTHING NOT TO LIKE ABOUT THIS CAR. IN MY 25+ YEARS OF DRIVING, IT IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST ENJOYABLE DRIVE I HAVE EXPERIENCED.

Beautiful car. Attracts much attention and approval from other motorists. Solid and substantial. Difficult to get into but once in the great seats hold you in much comfort. Wonderful smooth engine but this is not unusual with BMW. Smart interiar and clever design on the outside of the car with the wandering creases.

I purchased a 3.0 titanium silver Z4 last month with the sport package. Absolutely the most enjoyable driving vehicle I have ever owned! Smooth ride, great sound system, this "land shark" is really quick. Incredible in the turns!!! The automatic top is very easy and fast. Destined too be a classic with the new body style. Looks like a piece of art rides like a luxury sedan. Only thing I can think of that needs improvement, it could use more than one power port.

This is without a doubt the most fun car I've ever owned. Handles beautifully, plenty of power, and great looks. Got the 2.5 with manual transmission. I was shocked when the dealer said 80% are sold with automatic trans. Why would anyone buy a pure sports roadster and get an auto?

I cant wait til I drive it each time. Alot of fun to drive, 2.5 plenty of power for those who dont need 0-60 < 6secs. Ride as good as the 3-series, handling excellent. Sports mode (only comes with the Sports Package) a must. Audiophiles, audio upgrade a must. Powertop a must, no boot, no latch, very slick. Very quiet ride, top up or down

My experience to date has been nothing short of magical. This car demands attention even when sitting in a parking spot! My Z4 is Jet Black with the tan interior and conveys an image that equals BMW's "Land Shark" advertising. I don't think BMW will have to worry about the Z4 getting the 'womans car' reputation like the Z3. As a 6'4" driver I am amazed at the head and leg room. It is a credit to BMWs adjustable seats. The 2.5 liter, 184 hp engine (coupled with the 5-speed manual transmission) is more than enough to put this car through its paces.

This car is absolutely an amazing machine. I wasn't too sure about it at first, since I never liked the Z3's but the design drew me in. I previously owned a 325ci coupe, and was going to trade it in for a 330ci convertible, but I decided to take a look at the Z4 since it was so gorgeous. Once I test drove it, I knew I had to buy it, so then and there I signed the papers and I couldn't be happier today!

I bought the Z4 back in December with all options included. There seems to be a few loud people out there that don't like the new style, but I for one find the new BMW look more appealing. I find the combination of looks, performance and luxury outstanding. It's nice to see a roadster with navigation, a working trunk, and even cup holders.

Car has great features. Good NAV system. Excellent automatic wipers. Great top - when it is down the outside of the top is up. That gives it a finished look. The top is also fully automatic. However - it does not handle as well on the freeway as my Audi TT Roadster. It is quiet inside with the top up (The top is nicely lined). It has a "Sport Button". When pressed, it really accelerates. It has reasonable interior storage. The controls are well arranged.

I recently had the opportunity to drive a z4 3.0 for a week this little thing is so responsive it almost feels a part of you...it corners like its on rails and the acceleration is AWESOME...either in auto or manual this little thing will gallop like nothing else....comfort was great, the GPS was awesome and stereo very impressive.Styling is unmatched!!! Very well built automobile!!!!! Get one if you can afford the $52,000 the model I drove was.....made me feel like a kid again.

After looking at z350, 230 slk, and the Z4, the BMW was the most fun balance car.Auomatic, Selecting a White with red seats (grey dash/carpets)Sports/Premium/Zenon/ Convie/and heated seats, the Z is FUN. Handles like a GO Kart. My every day car is a X5, also wonderful, but with the Z$ I feel like 20's again.

I originally wanted to get Nissan 350Z, but I'm glad i ended up with Z4. My first experience with BMW was more than pleasant. It handles very well, no wonder why people prefer the ultimate driving machine. My Z4 has Sports Package, that gives you very good handling. Do not underestimate the 2.5 liter engine, it will give you enough power. Without realizing, you are already going over 100mph

I have had my Z4 3.0i w/sport package/button for approximately 7 months. I traded my Mercedes SLK Sport. If you don't want to talk to people at stop lights then don't buy this car! This is not a car for shy people. Overall, a great handling car in all aspects. I commute 1 hour each way to work and the Z4 is fairly comfortable. The trunk space is pretty good and realistically holds one set of golf clubs and a few small bags while still allowing the top to come down. If you are getting the 3.0i, be sure to spend the extra $$$ on the sport package. The button really makes the car even more fun to drive.

Traded up from a Mazda RX8. What a noticable difference in performance and handling. SMG performance is outstanding as is the acceleration in all gears. Auto top is quick and effortless. Gas mileage is averaging 27- 28 mpg! Fit and finish immaculate with no noted faults or defects. Wife loves driving it and likes the electronic seat adjustments and looks of car. Immediate gratification for the senses!

I haven't looked for an excuse to drive my car since I sold my 1981 TR-8. The Z4 is like my TR-8 on steroids. This car is awesome. Fast Sleek and sticks to the tarmack like it is on a train track. Most all today's cars look pretty much the same. The first time I saw the 2003 Z4, I was hooked!

A great car to drive and to maintain. Every feature is of high quality and reliable. The design is classic and will be as sought after twenty years from now just as the 50s Mercedes SL 190 is today. The SMG (semi-manual gearbox) adds substantially to the driving experience. The car is far superior to the Audi TT (the slowest roadster ever) and the SLK. Comparable are the Boxster S and the AMG SLK, but both are quite a bit more expensive. Thus BMW gives you the by far best deal for your money. As an advice, do not save on the extras and get as many as you can. You will appreciate it later and every time ou get into your roadster.
Love it, Love it!!

I've wanted a convertible sports car all my life and I fell in love with a Z3 (by site only) back in 98. When I could finally afford to buy what I wanted, I did lots of research and decided the Z4 was my best buy. It has not only met all of my expectations, it surpasses them. I love the speed, I love the handling, I love the looks I get when I drive it!

IT IS VERY DIFFERNT IN SOME RESPECTS FROM OTHER AUTO THAT YOU SEE ON THE ROAD TODAY AND THAT IS WHAT APPEALED TO ME IN MY SELECTION PROCESSES.

This is my first BMW and convertible. I was not sure if I will like a convertible, but this car is so comfortable with top up or down (my usual mode of driving), that I wish I bought a convertible earlier. The car has all the comforts/techno gadgets I was looking for, and all work well together. Handling is superb, and the balance of performance, handling, and comfort is extraordinary. I highly recommend the car to anyone looking to get into this type of vehicle.

This is a great car. It is put together well and very quick with the 5 speed. The steering is quick and precise and the upgraded stereo sounds great. The car sounds great, just like a roadster should. We also have a Corvette, and the two compliment each other well. The Z4 looks, feels and sounds like something out of a Bond film, whereas the Corvette is like taking off in a rocket. Highly recommended.

Wasn't in market for car (getting 530i), but took a ride after hearing about dealer incentives. Car is addictive; bought it. Very precise and responsive. Well worth the price paid (under $39k for loaded vehicle listing over $47k). Only problem is dealer; salesman rammed it with a customer's used car a few days later (381 miles) when I took it back for a paint problem. Now dealer acts like I don't exist. Got an email into BMW North America to see how they handle it. Meanwhile having to use own insurance to get it repaired.

This is an upgrade from the Z-3 I had, I like the keyless entry and back glass window with defroster much better it just has a few more whistles and bells, seems to handle the road a little better, and I don't see one very other car like I did with the Z-3.

This is a great car for driving in the wind and sun. At highway speeds you don't even get wet in a light rain or drizzle. Handles like a dream on the curvy roads in Austin. Cupholders are a bit odd, but other than that it is hard to complain. The 2.5 has plenty of oomph for the weight of the car, and the sport package was well worth it.

Bought the car in November of 2003. Loved the drive of the car and was impressed with the it's lines. Within the first 3,000 miles, had to repair both front tires due to puncture. After 10,000 miles had to replace all 4 tires. Inflation pressure listed by BMW was not the same as required by the tire company. No problem with tires after proper inflation. Soft top would not function due to a leak in system. Fixed under warranty. Problem with front suspension system. Fixed under warranty. Few months after warranty ended, master computer system failed. Replacement value $1,300. BMW paid half. Currently car is in shop for front suspension system problems again.

I've driven mine across the country and it's superb in all respects -- fun, reliable, great gas mileage, great performance, all ways. Even though it's small, it has good storage space and excellent driving compartment space. Gas mileage on the road is 34-38 mpg. Semi-auto transmission is fun, but jerks on changes often, annoying. All in all, a plus, though. I'd buy another without question.

This is my first BMW and my first Roadster. I was always a fan of the Z3 since my brother bought one in 2001. His was stylish, powerfull, and a blast to drive. My heart was set on a Z3 and I was not very fond of the Z4. Over time, it began to grow on me. I now own a brand new 2.5L Z4 Roadster and I love it!! Very sporty, powerfull, handles great, and is a gorgeous automobile. The navigation system is a little difficult to use but once you get the handle of it, it is fun to use. The only problem I have with it is with the top up, the blind spot is a real problem. Other than that, it is a beauty. I highly recommend one.

I have owned six different models of BMW's over the last 24 years but this is by far away the most fun to drive. I would never consider a Z-3 but the Z- 4 is so cool and "begs to be driven". The suspension system is unbelievable; the braking system is phenominal. The seats are very very comfortable and I am 6'1. This is a an automobile that I will keep for a long time. A great car!

I was looking for a convertible for quite some time. When the Z4 came out, I immediately thought I can stop looking. Love the looks, and love the performance even better. I had wanted to keep my old car since it was paid for, but after driving the Z4 for a couple of weeks, I simply had to sell the old car. Now I am buying a truck as my second vehicle because I simply refuse to drive anything else. Drive one and you'll know what I am talking about.

Fewer features than my top of line Pathfinder, cost about the same, but much more fun to drive. If the sex appeal of the Pathfinder is that of "bloomers in a convent", this is the neatest "thong in Rio"! Have yet to drive it somewhere w/o someone commenting on how 'snazy', cute, sexy it is! Abs love it!! The friendly adoration of strangers offsets the open envy of some male friends!

I've always owned a Mercedes, this is my first BMW. This Z4 is a real performance car. The pleasures of driving this vehicle comes from the triptronic and the fully loaded Z4 thatresponds like a cat. My experience with Mercedes was a luxury ride but this is a well engineered machine. The two downsides are the seatbelt does not rest comfortably and the interior is on the small side.
I love it!

I am a first time BMW owner and I cannot believe how easy it was to fall in love with this car. It's fun to drive, impressive and can quickly get you out of a jam (no pun intended) when it really counts. Although the car mags weren't too impressed with the Z4, I have to disagree. The simple interior makes it sharp and functional. It's a drivers car, you don't need any extra bells and whistles. I was and by far is the smartest deal I have ever made. Nick Alexander Imports is an excellent dealership!
