I never had an issue driving with the top down when I lived in Manhattan because I never left anything sitting on my seats that someone could grab when I had the top down. If I still lived up north I would still drive with the top down from early Spring to late Fall. |

If you were driving new Z4 they would be blinded/ paralyzed by the sight of you sitting in a true Unicorn and nothing would happen! 😎

Sunglasses help create a bit more privacy, I wear them always when driving top down.

Lived in Jersey City & Spring Lake NJ, worked in Manhattan. My first car was bought in 1960, a 1957 Fairlane 500 Sunliner. Have lived in a few other places including overseas & now North Carolina.
Was never without a Convertible. Even in the Army had use of a Jeep when not using my assigned vehicle M88A1 . Life is to be enjoyed so buy the Z4 if thats your desire. My Boxster turned into a Z4 M40i & have been very happy with the change.

Would love to see pictures! Too bad you can't pickup your new Z4 M40i there at the factory...that WAS a great experience for us in 2014 when we got our former 328xDrive Touring! Ahhh...the memories. Hmmm..wonder if you could rent a Z4 there at the Welt for a few days drive around southern Germany???

I saw this on the CNN website. So maybe most members in the USA have seen it, but thought I would post it anyway.
The guy obviously is driven by logic and suppresses his emotions 😂😂 https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/27/opini...nos/index.html |

I just got off the phone with an old friend of mine that lives in NY and he was not aware that the 6MT was now available on the Z4.
I want to send him some reviews from legitimate sources so if you had to pick one or two of the more recent videos and also one or two of the blogs that reviewed the 6MT which would you select? |

https://www.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=30723617 These are two of the better videos. I don’t think there are any actual test drive videos but the first discusses a first drive and the second is a good video of a stationary car. https://youtu.be/oAQPtZtzH_Y?si=SjnO9dEttjUcx-Dj https://youtu.be/nVPy-kz3wao?si=-I2D1_yreY0M37p7 |

He’s clearly someone who thinks of cars as utilitarian transport and nothing more. Unless you are a male with a small member, in which case you need a shifter to compensate for something else and your car is no longer just a car.
And yes, he’s decidedly anti-ICE pro-EV. Just another person with a blinkered worldview and more platform than circumspection. Content over quality! |

As far as I am concerned this CNN article was a total waste of my time to read.
