  A friend of mine just purchased one last week. It's a stunning looking car, way better looking than the latest model Z4. It's arguably one the best looking BMW's ever made.

  6’0 including the quiff. You said you were 5’10 in the Jag XE videos three years ago. Never too late for a late growth spurt :) Then again nice convertibles like the Z4 make everyone feel taller.

  The BMW six cylinder engine is a gem. It's BMW's best engine. So smooth. Our 528i Touring is still smooth and quiet with 147,000 miles on the clock. 👍🙂

  Absolutely love the look of this generation of Z4. It's timeless. And there is nothing as smooth as the old BMW NA straight six engines. There were as silky as cream wrapped up in, err, silk (or satin, if you couldn't afford silk)!

  I drive a 2009 E89 Z4 S Drive 35i with automated manual transmission and N54 twin turbo engine with just over 300 HP. This car is my daily driver and after tolerating run flats for 12 months I took the plunge and changed the tyres to medium range Falken tyres which completely transformed the driving experience so 2 years later am still enjoying the drive on a daily basis. Great in the snow and on days like Matt drove is excellent, with sun glasses on of course.....

  Another fantastic review, especially as I bought a BMW Z4 2.3i E89 two weeks ago and I absolutely love it. It’s one of the best cars I’ve ever owned. It’s a fun, engaging car with fabulous good looks. Loving my midlife crisis!

  You don’t need a shed load of performance with a convertible, so an NA straight 6 BMW sounds like heaven

  One of the best cars I have ever owned. Trouble free, great engine. Avoid big wheels and runflats and ride is great. I have owned two 2.3is over the years and both were totally reliable in every way and pretty economical to run.

  I have the 2005 2.5, its not fast by modern standards, but as a summer driver with the roof down its a dream I had as a kid, and still love driving it

  I have the 3.0L and in sport +mode it is rapid. If I want to cruise around I leave it in normal mode , it's really comfortable , i'm 6ft1" and have no issues with room . I think this car is massively underrated ,it's a nice  looking car with the roof up or down and much easier to keep clean than a rag top. I won't be selling mine anytime soon !!

  Easily the best looking Z4. Thanks for the video.
