The ZF 8 speed is total garbage for a “driver’s car”.
A Double clutch transmission is absolutely mandatory. Especially with a very basic over-boosted laggy turbo engine (without variable turbine geometry) like Z4 has.
I have owned 6 BMWs, including the M4, rented about 20 of them, test drove a variety of ZFs and manuals. Also DCTs and double clutch ones on 6 Porsches I’ve owned in the past few years.
ZF auto is trash. The Z4 is a fancy grandma car.
