OH come one man! I didn't sit in it but it can't be that bad!!! How much do you weigh and how tall are you?

PS: does anybody have a car configurator? or an option list?

Yea im 185 and 6', the car is meant for chicks. It looks good though but you certainly need a maxi pad to drive one

DINAN530i

My local dealer had one and i test drove it and it is a fast car and the handling is very stiff and tight. Feels like a little rocket. Not to mention the sound from the exhaust is deep and throaty.. I would wait and by one in the fall at a better price but nice for a 2nd car not a main driver

Yes from your point of view. I dunno it's like saying F1 cars are also for chicks because they can't accomodate a big male. Ok it's out of line that statement since those are ultra performance cars. But you get my point. It's like saying almost anything with 2 doors and 2 seats is a chick car since obviusly most of those cars aren't gonna give u the best confort since that's not what they were ment to. U name it (350z,s2000,Z4 M3 CSL, and the list can go on with more exotic stuff like zondas and ...) They were ment to be as light as possible, small and nimble, to give you excelent lateral support (seats) and big grip, so you can do what the car was ment to do (drive very very fast). Of course as the weight/height increases you feel more and more out of place and unconfortable but that's not enough to say it's a chick car because of that.

Z4 2.5 wasnt meant for ultra performance at all, just meant to be a tiny little roadster. Its definitly not for me. You cant compare a Z4 to a 350z or an M3 and say the design of the Z4 was strictly meant for lightweight performance. All the Z4 M is, is just another Z4 with an old M3 engine in it. Interior looks nice though. If I were going to spend that kinda money I rather have an M3 cab if I wanted to drop the top.

Yeees it wasn't ment for ultra performance, it wasn't ment for real performance as the Z4 M coupe, and that's why they don't have the same seats. The seats on the Z4 are more confort oriented in a way than those on the M. And i drove the z4 3.0i and i didn't find it unconfortable at all. Yes it's a small and a bit claustrophobic place but no way that's a chick car. Simply as the weight drops (that's occurs also when the car gets smaller, obviusly) the car if it's as well ste-uped like the other car models like the 3 series, coupe or cabriolet then that car, the samaller one gets better performance.
The design wasn't stricly ment for lightweight performance,yes, but that's a factor well taken into consideration when they designed the car. The same with the other models. And we were talking about the z4 coupe not the cabrio. Obviusly i would choose the m3 over the z4 coupe/m3 cabrio over the z4 (wait i don't want a cabrio at all) but anyway that's because i love more the 3 series design and it's more practical for me. I didn't reach in any way that financial state to afford a big car and a very small car as a weekender or just to have fun, if i would have reached that then the Z4 M coupe would have been an option for sure. BUT i say again BUT that doesn't mean i can say it's a chick car. I simply can't find the arguements in your statements.
Cheers.

I dont understand your arguement. Z4 roadster is a chick car or guys with small packages. Thanx.

BetterMakeWay

Not right...the z4 roadster is a different car to the 3 series convertible...totally different sensation. Go and drive both. 3 series convertible is not a proper roadster.

I dont know where your getting at here. I owned an E46 cab, that was a convertable. Z4 is a roadster. Where are we going here?
