You can move on now that you have been proven wrong.

Also, all arguments and points by Justinnum are invalid since he is posting on a PERFORMANCE car forums while driving a 328i "sport"...LOL!
You like to use words like "fact" "proven wrong" yet you supply no evidence to support either. Just one persons delusional opinions.

And you can't use an apostrophe correctly. Can't wait to read your next article on Jalopnik or in Evo since you are the ultimate car expert.

No need to get upset that someone doesn't agree with you. Majority of people would choose a cayman s over a Z4M.

Do you want "monkfish wrapped in grand reserve parma ham on a bed of savoy cabbage and vegetables in a cream reduction" ......... or "The Red Naga Chilli"?



When I went looking for a high powered roadster that would give me that American muscle car feel, yet had nice handling and modern accoutrements, the Z4 M Roadster was the choice for me .............. the "Red Naga Chilli" if you will

Yeah, but 2 magazines had it going .1 seconds quicker than the Z4M around some track. Therefore the Cayman S is better.

Has to be if two journalists say so

0-60 times are all over the place on the Z4 M Roadster. C&D in their "First Drive Review" gave it a 4.5....... later in their full "Road Test Review" they have it at 4.6. R&T in their "Road Test" gave it a 4.7. Hammond in the video says "5 seconds to 60". Owners here seem to agree BMW can be conservative on their power ratings and performance numbers.

The two cars are not trying to be the same thing, one wants to be the "monkfish" and the other wants to be the "Naga chilli" .............. therefore, IMO, the "this one is better" argument is comparing apples to oranges, just because they are both drop top sports cars does not mean they want to be the same type of drop top sports car ................... I love grabbing it by the "scruff of the neck"

Another subjective argument ............. "styling". I think it's a beautiful design, others like you hate it. There is no "correct" answer when it comes to styling........... one man's Picasso is another man's velvet Elvis

I actually thought the Z4M was an ugly car for quite a while when I owned the Z3M.

Then one day in New York, I just say a black one and it "popped" for me. Suddenly I thought the Z4/M looked awesome.

Still on some angles it can be downright ugly. But on most angles, it's looks surpass many non-supercars.

Derp... says the guy who's decided to spend god knows how much on a brand new F30, disgustingly ugly 328 lol. Your opinions on cars are vastly discounted just by looking at what you've decided to buy over a cayman s, z4m, 996 tt, etc..

Lol naw. I'm just happy I spent 30k on a car that can hang with one, instead of spending 50k on a 328. Bet you also think your key fob is a free ticket into any girls pants too right? Haha

Enough bickering men.

Corvette is my choice. Best 'bang for the buck' sports car available. Looks pretty damn nice to its brother also.

Agreed! Only problem with corvettes is that they are EVERYWHERE which takes away from it a bit IMO. Definately best bang for the buck though.
