BMW Evaluation - 2004 BMW Z4
By Alan Louganis - October 13 - 10:00 amBMW is a car that you spend more money fixing it than your car payments. The BMW corp and specially Santa Monica dealership have stolen so much from me.

Great Z4 - 2004 BMW Z4
By sdb8 - October 7 - 2:00 amGreat fun car. Automatic roof is great. Smooth acceleration, nice cruising (though the engine revs a little fast on the highway). I have driven it over 500 miles in a day and was comfortable (61", 230). I took a db meter on my test drive, and with the top up it was just a few db higher than my Acura RL.

woodys - 2004 BMW Z4
By woody343434 - July 14 - 2:00 amI think this vehicle is a fresh new look into B M Ws future,other such vehicles with such ammenties are far more expensive and little on design ie (mazda,miata).I have found it is a really comfortable car plus really peppy on take offs and passing gears.I would suggest this car to any one looking for a fine quality convertable that doesnt want to spend 40k.This vehicle offers plenty of ammenties plus lots of fresh new look.

Fun but Uncomfortable - 2004 BMW Z4
By sctts233 - June 12 - 2:00 amThis car is a lot of fun to drive, especially with the top down. With the top up, there is a lot of rattling noises and a very bumpy, unpleasant ride. I would not recommend this as an everyday car.

Electrical/Computer Problems - 2004 BMW Z4
By Shayen George - April 1 - 10:00 amThese cars are prone to electrical computer problems relasted to the Idrive system. If you search the Internet you will find hundreds of stories like mine. My Z-4 has stalled out unexpectedly at total of six times. The EML (Engine Malfunction Light)light came on, and I could not get the RPMs up for sufficient power. On 2 occasions this created life threating situations.

Z4 tires - 2004 BMW Z4
By Lubbe - September 16 - 2:00 amOverall, the Z4 is a nice car. The problem is tha run flat tires. They have a tread wear rating of 140 which translates about 15,000 miles. It will cost in excess of $1,000 to replace them. They cannot be repaired if punctured and they cannot be found in stock at any Bridgestone dealer I know of and they can only be replaced by a run flat certified dealer. The tires are not warrented by BMW so you are pretty much on your on. A tire problem on the road will probably result in a delay of several days.All of this so BMW could leave off the spare.
