Is anyone buying or ordering one of the new Z4's? I recently purchased my 2006 Z4 (lease end) rather then lease or purchase the 2009. I hate to say it but I think the new Z4 will be a very slooow seller! I have not seen much posted of people buying the new model.
Who's buying
- Thread starter MrZip
- Start date
I love my Mk1 Z4M too much - I can't see me opting for the new one. Initial impressions don't lead me to think there's anything that it will deliver on that I don't get from my current car. Coupled with the money I've spent on mine to tailor it to do what I want, it doesn't make sense to get the new model.
If I were to spend that sort of money (that I expect a high-end, or future Z4M would cost), I think I'd be looking to spend more and go further "up the ladder" so to speak, into something more exotic, and/or completely different.

Tell me about it. I own RBS shares
although I thank myself so much that I sold most of my holdings in banks a while before the banks imploded. Luckily I bought a few barclays near the low but now it`s knowing when to ditch them....is this just a brief recovery or is barclays in a bull market rally.I had a good look round it today, it is better in the flesh than the pictures - and seems very nice when fully loaded.
It is definitely a step away from the E85 towards the SLK, so it depends if you want a good all-year all-rounder, or a weekend more 'raw' toy. If you can call the E85 'raw' that is (well the suspension certainly is).

The canadian pricing has been release by BMW. The sDrive35i starts at CAD 64K. Fully loaded, it is CAD 71.5K. I just bought an E90 ///M3 for CAD 77K. It's a difficult case to make for a two-seater with limited trunk space and about 5 days of top down good weather per year. It's a rather expensive third car IMO. It's lovely however.
BTW, I never was a fan of the SLK so it is no surprise that the new Z4 does not do it for me either.
I know I won't win any fans on this forum, but (if they are still around in a few yours
) one of these will probably be sitting in my driveway:

I have had fun with my roadster foray, but I think future will see me going back to my V8 pony car roots

The front end is just 200% better than the current model, i.e. double-ring headlights, front air dam, kidney grille.
Hits the spot for me, I think I see one in my future, not immediate though. This time next year maybe, funds permitting.
Thing is, for all you guys that don't like it, what else would you get? The current Z4 is/was quite unique in the price range, especially for used ones. 370Z is the spiritual successor I think, but only to the coupe, the the 370Z roadster is too fugly.
