This new (Z-2009+) part of the forum hardly has any posters/visitors, it's like a ghost town in here :tumbleweed: :)
 
Cos they are are too expensive!! :poke:
OR - they are simply too new and not many people who have them are internet forum goers :) - apart from the select few on here
 
They haven't been out long enough yet. I bet the posters on the forum are a fraction of the 1st gen owners out there, so in fact we are doing well so far! :wink:
 
Not sure that is the case completely, when the original Z4 came out I was very active on the original Z4UM and so were hundreds of others waiting to buy one or just bought one.

The new Z is just a different market I guess to some extend.

Exactly what I was going to say and it is for sure a different market...
There are a number of us here from the original Z4UM...

Yes, but that was a new model, not an upgrade of an existing mark! :wink:

Same as the new MINI. I joined a forum about it 12 months before they came out! Not as many on the forum section to the 2nd gen MINI for ages on that site until they were out for over a year!
 
I just took delivery of a 2010 35i and coming from driving an '03 and an '06 Z4, I can honestly say that this new model is superior in every way. I loved both of my other Z4's, but the new Z4 blows both away big time. I can't find one aspect of the first generation Z4 that I can say I miss or was better than this one. This car is unbelievable. :D
 
After owning mine for a while, I'd agree there. I would say if I didn't also!

When I had my 3.0si Coupe I really liked the car, but secretly hoped BMW would improve it somehow because I always thought there was room for improvement on a few things, mainly to do with the handling on normal roads!
 
I would also agree! :D

I was a member of the original z4um and owned a 2.2i between Sept 2004 and Dec 2006. I loved the original Z4 but feel that the new model has 'evolved' a good bit. I've enjoyed owning it for every minute of the last 6 months. :thumbsup:
 
I had been closely following all the prototypes for about a year before it was properly revealed to the public. I was actually quite quick off the mark and ordered it in January this year, 4 months before the launch. Having owned a terrific-all-round (but slightly dull) 325i coupe for 2 years I was keen to get back into a roadster and wanted a new fresh model. :) As I said, no regrets and enjoying everything about it. :driving:
 
I suppose that this thread really begs the question - how many Z4 2009+ owners are using this site?

+1 :)
 
i do read the forum most days to see what is going on but as yet havn't really had any issues (bar the fuel pump) or need to start a thread. The car is great and I have nothing, as yet, I would want to change. Althought I have had a look at the aftermarket exhausts but only as I am used to a much louder car!

Of course we are exclusive, look what we drive,and look how happy most of us are, aside from a few first year pains. This is not me first BMW, and I have owned a few faster cars but none of them, considered as a complete package, compares, it is everything I could want on a sporty car, works as a daily driver and looks like sex on wheels...

:worshipbmw:
 
:D Well said! :thumbsup:

I too have owned a few BMW's and usually change cars every 2-3 years. At the moment I'm thinking this car could be a "keeper" because I also view it as a complete all round package. In a couple of years I might buy a cheap run-around car.

Not many at all, but that will change in time.

It's a bit of a bad time with the econmony and everything just now, I have been tempted recently but am keeping one eye on the future so probably won't do anything until next Summer or maybe a bit later.
 
I tired to find sales figures for the MB SLK and could not find anything but would like to know how the "new" Z4 is selling in comparision... :scratchhead:
