The old Z4 was way out of line because it didn't really offer anything, and I would have agreed with you there. This one though, if you really boil it down it's not overpriced.....it's super well equipped. The 718 Boxster S starts at $71.4k, and that is a stripper. No PDK, partial leather, no limited slip, no sports exhaust, small wheels.....all things the M40i comes with as standard. Not to mention all the tech as well (HUD, Nav, etc).

Also, for me, I know the 718 might handle better but that car is running a 350hp turbo 4 that has been criticized to no end for having no soul. I'll take the boosted six in the Z4 10/10 times.
