yeahh, i doubt with m sport suspension u'd feel any roll if you were tumbling off a cliff...
 
Another former ST owner here. The sensation of driving the Z4 is definitely different, but I sorely miss the spot-on ride and handling balance of the ST. Very comfy, and handled beautifully.
 
another former focus st owner here:

women, cars and houses don't seem to mix :(

i feel the z4 handles a lot differently compared to any FWD stuff i've had before. the focus was very good around corners, but you could feel that weight being pulled around. i also had a stripped out puma which handled amazingly well (better than the Z4).

i've had my Z4 almost 3 months now and still don't fully trust going round a corner very quickly with the DSC off, but it's definitely more agile and flat in the bends than the st was. It will take a while getting used to RWD if all you've driven before is FWD cars. different driving technique involved.
 
Oooooo, the orange :sweetheart:

Know what you mean about trust in corners, takes a while but every time I trust it a little more I am pleasantly surprised... Actually, that's an understatement, it's what keeps me grinning :D

i seem to run out of grip between my arse an the seat sooner than the tyres run out of grip :driving:
 
I have so far run out of sphincter grip before it goes pear shaped ; gotta love a twitchy twisty corner 8)

The key is practice. As for the OP, waiting to hear back :driving:

That was me tying to be too clever, your pic shows the non-sport seats. I just didn't reckon on the M suspension as an option...
 
All the pre facelift 3.0i models had M sport suspension as standard (a bit like "Sport" spec on the facelift models). However, it was possible to spec the 3.0i without M sport suspension. Best way to know for sure is chech the BMW link via log in, as posted above :thumbsup:

That's because your arse is so shiny from being spanked by the future Mrs Woot after someone showed her your thread. :telloff:
