Just wanted to get your opinion on the M Z4 roadster - I drove one the other day and love the refined feeling and tons of legroom that my s2000 just doesn't have.

Since I have two s2k's was thinking about getting rid of my 05 Silverstone for the BMW instead.

333hp sounds very enticing and the refined chassis, better sound insulation has pretty much sold me.

What do you think the dealer would give me for my s2k? Or should I try to sell it by myself? I'm willing to let this car go for below KBB if anyone wants it.....

The silverstone is a mint 2005 with the oem red/black interior in case anyone is interested

I love the z4's, they are great cars.

If I had to get one, I would get the M coupe. I dont like the roadster, I have no need for a convertable.

 

i wouldnt do it!

 

personally, id go with the Roadster too. just looks so much nicer IMO. Given that you have the other s2k, at least you still have a drop top option when you want it!

 

If I had two S's im pretty sure I would do it too.

x2

 

now how about the Z4 M coupe

M coupe and Z4 M coupe are totally different

 

i love the z4 M and the z4 M coupe. if i could do a straight up trade i'd do it in a heart beat!

sorry, thats what I meant.

z4 M coupe.

 

its got alot of torque and more hp thats the only thing ill give it that it has over the s

 

It's not a straight up trade NO WAY...hahaha - if that was the case I'd be driving the BMW roadster already!

I'm hoping to get 24-25k for my s2000 so if anyone wants a clean s2000, hit me up and I'll be glad to deal.

Just to clear things up I'm not looking at the older m-z3 coups!

I want the Z4 M-powered convertible roadster. I don't like the Z4 M-powered hardtop just because...hehe

But one factor besides the luxury and more hp that is a big plus for me is EXTRA LEGROOM AND overall space. On long road trips I always wished I could stretch out a bit more in my s2000. (granted I'm 6'2, 180 lbs)

Dealer wants $54k for the roadster so it's a lot more moola than the s2k

 

trade in, crash it, drive it off a cliff, sell it.


who cares your getting a gt3!

 

Trade it in for a M3.

oh, and ive seen those same pictures 1394120382184 times. WHAT THE EFF DO YOU DO! everytime i see your pics, i wonder how you afford it all.

 

I'm not a fan of BMW's Z4s. My friend has an M though and it's fast and a fun car, but I prefer the S2000.

Yeah same here considering you have:
08 White 997 GT3 (June delivery)

 

Money is still money so if I can minimize my losses that would be ideal. I saw a used M Z4 roadster for $49k with only 3k miles. I have a few pending buyers for my s2000 so we'll see since the guy is coming this weekend to take it off my hands.

I really do like the z4 more in terms of leg room and smooth power + torque.

I'll still have my yellow blown s2000 so don't see the need for 2 of the same cars. Still patiently waiting on my special spec'd out GT3. Will post pics when it arrives at the dealer but it's got a pretty sick color combo:

Got a white GT3 with the yellow PCCB's, yellow deviation stitching, yellow dials and yellow seat belts on the black leather/suede interior. It's one of a kind for sure - going for the EGG look

yea, money is still money regardless of how much you have, i knew i sounded a bit ignorant when i said what i said, but i also understand what you are saying. we better see pics of the gt3!

just curious, ballpark on how much its running you?

 

hey rick, it's alex from hawaii...

thinking about an ap2 =P trying to sell my project teg haha!

 

i would keep the s2k

 

I know you're looking at the roadsters, but the 335i coupe is an awesome daily driver car. Great fun to drive and has an amazing power plant.

Having both a s2k and 335i is a great garage

liam

You should give the 05 and up porsche boxster (the S if you can afford it) a look.
I own a 04 s2k and was very suprised by it. I didn't think i would be that impressed, but i defintely was. It was so easy to drive it from the get go. I never drove one before and right when i took it out of the lot i was amazed by it. Midengine

I also test drove the new Z4, but not the m series and came away not impressed. It was quieter than the s2k, but didn't like the feel of it or the pricetag.
