        Yea well the Z4 is a Bangle product, and frankly I don't like Bangle's design. The 5 series for instance, the rear looks great but the nose looks like the nose of Mike Tyson

            nice, light, pretty quick, great handling.
            The only thing i don't like about z4 is when is top is up.


            Bangle is a chief designer at BMW.

                I had a Z3, drove it from Vegas to Oklahoma and back, was the worst trip I have ever mad in my life in a vehicle. I would rather drive ride my motorcycle, it damn sure has more room. The Z4 isnt much bigger, so unless your going to drive it around town, I would consider something a bit bigger.

                    people gotta learn to use the car for its purpose... same goes for anyone driving a truck around in the cities.

                            Bangle is a fucking genius. Period.

                            His designs work on so many levels it's insane. To see one of his cars in the metal, in sunlight, or under streetlamps...his genius cannot be denied but it's not very accessable.

                            When I hear people say a Bangle design is ugly I think of my three year old boy saying sushi tastes like shit.

                                      Mini design team, I think the Rover was done the same way: a group of designers, reporting to Bangle; while the 7 series, new 5 and Z4 are his personal designs.

                                        well Bandle is a chief designer, so he doesn't do all the job, he just approves designes. So he gets all the heat and credit for designes.

                                        BTW he designed M Coupe too.

                                          i have an s2000 as one of my daily drivers. i really wouldnt trade it in for another convertible unless it was an sl500

                                          but in any sense, get what you want. 5-10hp you wont ever notice, and remember most of the people ragging on cars on this forum are talking out their ass. i really dont like the way the z4 looks, but if you do the only complaint i would have is the tone of the exhaust, i really dont like it. it sounds really bad in high rpms like a stock e46(new m3)

                                                Actually I drove an S2ooo for about 6 months and honestly wish I hadn't sold it, it sucked on the freeway but around town it was about 100% of what I want in a car.
