Z4 in Pistonheads Dream Garage

Down at number 19, a nice little mention for the M:

"The first generation BMW Z4 garnered a following that its replacement struggled to match. Why? Bold styling that is aging well, some lovely straight sixes and traditional hot rod appeal are just the start. The bonkers 3.2-litre M variants, both the Coupe and Roadster, look like being proper classics very soon as well."

A very PH list. Lots of British cars and hero cars. Honestly, I’m amazed that the Z4 is in the top 20 (two places above a Testarossa with no RS Clios in sight!) but we’ll take that result, for sure. :thumbsup:
2008 Z4MC: heavy wheels | crap suspension | skittish rear end | wobbly engine | not enough induction noise | underwhelming turn in | inconsistent braking | lardy battery | chubby steering wheel
2006 Z4 2.5si: gone

Now you've said that I'm amazed the Mazda MX5 isn't on the list - it seems to be the PH answer to everything. :lol:

No mention to the humble, basic-as-it-gets and fun Mazda MX5?! That page is not worth the Megabytes of data it's written on! :rofl:
