The only thing that this car needed was a manual. Now that it’s available, I placed my order for one!

How did you spec your car?

@AdrianBawn 7 ай бұрын

I bought mine (only the 20i but most features are the same) a few months ago, and i think you do the infotainment a disservice. Your tone suggests that because its previous generation thats a bad thing. In my opinion thats a selling point. The latest iDrive 8 is 100% touch screen. Its useless to use in a regular car. Fine if you have a tesla with autopilot, but you need tactile feedback when driving a normal car. The iDrive 7 setup has a lot more physical inputs for major features, and the puck controller is a lot more user friendly and can be used without having to concentrate on where your hands are going on the screen. I hope iDrive 9 brings back a lot of those features because I wont be upgrading my car to anything with iDrive 8 in it.

@miata1370 4 ай бұрын

Totally agree...and why we purchased the '23 x3 M40i before it morphed into wide screen, iDrive 8+ land. Physical button controls are much more intuitive for me to operate. Eyes up and looking down the road....car goes where the eyes go....

Great production. Bought my first BMW, a ‘22 Z4 M40i, couple of years ago. I’ve been an Audi guy for many years, still am, but I wanted a roadster for once in my life. The TTRS roadster never did it for me, the looks were ugly. The 718 Boxster looks great, classic, but it sounds like shit now. The Z4 M40i was a great discovery for me. First time I test drove it, I fell it love with it. I enjoy driving it as my fun weekend car on a sunny day. And the sound of that in-line 6! 😊

@davidt8087 7 ай бұрын

Plus you get compliments on it all the time like I do. Ah I wish this car came out back when I was 21. At that time the M235i was new. I wanted the M4 cuz I wanted to pose, but my dealer luckily put sense into me. Turns out he was right. Car and driver magazine ten best cars from 2015 to 2017, number 1 car on that list in those years when I owned the 235, the M235i. Yup. But if this very z4 was out back then, it would be ABOVE the list and ABOVE number 1, it would be so good it would be in it's own dimension lol. Wish I hadn't cheated on my wife because when I got my z4 we were going out, and her panties dropped, and we were like best friends, but she was my ex wife at that point 😭😭. Plus I'm a pilot now anyway so once your a pilot cruising 6-8500 feet above everyone else, aka the normies aka everyone has a car, and your cruising over the ground passing people stuck in traffic Going 165mph with good winds, you no longer care about sitting in a car and driving somewhere. It feels like bejng a peasant.

I am surprised as a reviewer you didn’t point out how dangerous it is to have both identical switches side by side for handbrake and roof opening! These established companies must have “design rules “ that govern what can be done and not. My Audi A3 Convertible had the same design and I had mistakenly operated the brake switch when trying to open the roof - I was shocked in both events. Luckily they happened at car park speeds

I feel exactly how you feel with the M40 cars of this generation vs the M cars. The M cars make a lot of sense if you track a lot but otherwise they are just too compromised as daily drivers. The M40s are the M cars for the road. I have the "other" Supra brother the M240i and I love it. I never track the car but I do hit over 200 km/h daily on the unrestricted highways and I'm always the fastest car on the road. (In fact it's faster than the M2 0-60 because of AWD) I felt like getting the M2 would just give me a fussier car in terms of ride harshness, noise and comfort levels. Great review as always, I hope your channel continues to grow. I subscribed when you had around 20k subscribers and now you have 10 times as much!

I had a '98 Z3, 5spd 2.8 ltr. Was on the waiting list for 1.5 yrs to get an M Roadster with German engine, was in line and ordered the second one my dealer received. I still have that 2001 M Roadster, respectable low mileage, and it's driven regularly. I still pick up my step when I walk out to the barn to slide the doors and take her for a ride. Have driven Z4s multiple times as loaners or for 'fun'. I think that males will buy this particular Z4. If you really want to open it up to the men's market then do one very simple thing: offer it with a six speed MANUAL TRANSMISSION. If you're going to take anything out of the car, ditch the cup holders---NOT needed. In fact, a passenger is optional. It's a BMW Roadster, a Driver should be able to jump in, grip it and rip it.

Have the same B58/ZF 8 speed in our x3 M40i...great combo but yes, certainly more power/speed than you can use on a daily basis. It's the perfect marriage of engine & transmission: very smooth power delivery that caused us to choose the M40 over the base 3.0. Suspect that'd be my similar decision if a new Z4 is in our future.

Faster, but less maneuverable (GTS is faster than the M40i). Louder engine, but quieter interior. Better interior and infotainment than the Boxster. Fewer options, but they cost a lot less, too. Porsche is the better driver's car, but this car is the better cruiser. It's all a matter of preference though. Can't go wrong with either. Just depends on what you value more.

The reason why they won't make a Z4M is because BMW will then have to give the S58 to Toyota and have them offer a Supra GRMN or something. BMW is afraid that will cannibalize sales of the M2, M3, M4 if the Supra does all that for a lower price and lighter weight.

The whole "M" thing doesn't really matter that much, these B58 straight sixes are getting to 500 HP with just an intake and tune and become a whole new beast. AND are still very reliable at that point, they've made this engine VERY strong. Going deeper with changing some internals (pistons, rods) and upgraded turbo with tune they're hitting 700+ hp easily. The B58 is arguably one of the best engines BMW has ever made.

As a purist I too miss having a standard in my Z4 M40i and I know I would feel more engaged if it had it, but honestly... this 8 speed ZF is great and there's no way I could ever shift as fast as it does. In sport plus and paddle shifting I can almost come to a stop without touching the brake which is very "standard'ish". I've ALWAYS had standards but this wasn't as bad as a trade off as I thought it would be.

I DID consider the M40 but I couldn’t justify the $12k price difference (plus I don’t need anymore speeding tickets).

I opted for the Orbit Grey wheels, black Vernasca heated seats (and steering wheel), along with Comfort Convenience and remote start.
