Re: thoughts of the upcoming bmw Z4 coupe?
THANK YOU ANDREW! Finally I can see the M coupe with the M3 competition package wheels. I don't know if I like the look of these wheels on this car though. I went to go check-out the M coupe myself. The one I sat in was white with imola red interior. I like the interior alot. I sat inside, and the car made me feel like it was screaming DRIVE ME, and drive me FAST! The small-diameter, but thick steering wheel is really attractive to me. The clutch is much firmer than in the Crossfire, and the 6-speed seems to require a very, very firm hand in order to move through the cogs. You also sit alot lower in the car than you do in the Crossfire. The rearview vision is worse than in the Crossfire too. In the Crossfire you can see much more vertically than in the Z4 M coupe. I hear the tires on the new Z4 M coupe aren't that good either. I want one either way. My biggest problem with this car is that the S54 engine does not have the low-rpm torque delivery that makes the Crossfire so fun to drive. Past 4,000 rpm this engine gets fun though. If I can afford it within a year or two, I plan on swapping the Dinan 3.90 rear axle for more torque delivery at lower rpm's.
