The overall sales numbers probably reflect that.

It just seems like a no-brainer.

In addition, the lever ratio has been changed and the effort required to make shifts and engage reverse gear has been adjusted.

The revised layout provides a comfortable 42mm clearance between the shift knob and air conditioning panel."

I wonder if the new Z4 will also have that type of redesign?

I think the main reason for the redesign was because of the odd divider. The EU Z4 seems fine.

I remain VERY partial to the Z4 interior.
