  • The Firmament Smiled - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    head turner and heart melter upon sight one becomes a Moses parting freeway obstacles magically as heaven itself appears to join ones motoring revelry commanding everyone around to give way, make room, here comes the fair haired, favored roadster that takes the breath of saints and angels all.

  • Z4 4 Fun - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    I think the z4 is a great little car for the weekend. Fun, fast and gets great looks from others -- but does not break your bank account doing it.

  • Great at first, then.... - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    I bought the Z4 as what seemed like a natural upgrade from my Z3. I paid a premium to own this car, based on its stellar styling and improvements, such as the fully auto top and glass rear window. However after owning it for the first 6 months, it began to annoy me to no end. Its horribly uncomfortable. From the unsupportive seats, the exaggerated door interior door handles that chafe my left leg every time I shift, to the un-adjustable seat belt that chokes me every time I drive. Plus the 1/4 inch clearance from the dash to my right knee, and Im only 61! Add an ultra-harsh ride, and I feel like Im in a torture chamber each time I get in. I wish I had kept the z3.

    Have had the car 6 mobnths and love it more every time i drive it. Heads turn and I continually get tons of compliments. Currently, I avaerage 24 MPG, not bad for a sports car! The dealership has been very accomodating for appointments and any repairs. I took the car on a 600 mile trip and was able to pack the trunk with 3 duffle bags, and a lot of other things. I was amazed how much the trunk held. I highly reccommend this car! Its wonderful!

    The Z4 is a beautifully designed 2 seater with plenty of power for the average driver. The top is very easy to use unlike my last conv. ( 95 Corvette). A place to keep the coffee cup is all its missing.

  • It doesnt get any better - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    I test drove several of the convertables in this class and the Z4 not only looked the best but felt the most roomie inside while keeping it tight on the outside. The handling is top notch.

  • sexy as hell - 2004 BMW Z4

    this car is fast, fun and sexy as hell. i dont know what people are talking about when they compare it to the z3, this car is a lot better. i owned a z3 previously and it does not compare in any aspect.

  • Should have kept the Z3 - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    I love the look of the car but it didnt drive as well as the Z3 and not as roomy as my Audi TT. Z4 has a lot of power and fun to drive, but wish I had my Z3 back.

  • Z4 was the worst car i have ever owned. - 2004 BMW Z4
    By -

    I bought my car brand new with 6 miles on it. Ive had it a year and has 11,000 miles on it now. I had to bring it to the show 8 times. The instrument cluster needed replacing twice. The passenger side power seat went out. The gas cap lid cover fell off at the gas station. The passenger side window fell out. The dealer would not take it back. BMW America would not do anything, but they "made a note of it" In 2003, the domestic cars had less complaints then the european cars. Makes you wonder why. I should have bought a cadallac.

  • Best car! - 2004 BMW Z4
