if the Z4M roadster I drove at vmax is anything to go by, you're in for a lot of fun guys.

was thinking about one of these as a change...

good looking, nice size and that engine.
just hope its more involving than an m3?!

I'm getting mine in early September, it joins my CSL (which is staying until the next one comes out). I drove a Z4M Coupe last weekend and am due to drive it on circuit in a comparison test for Total BMW next week. It's much better than an M3, and a noticeable improvement over the Z4M Roadster that I drove for issue 091 of EVO. Better turn-in (due to a higher ratio steering rack and uprated diff) and much less body roll than the Roadster. It looks very different too, more complete as a design and with the stance of a rottweiler. I suspect it will become a classic.

There are a few cars still available with September build slots. If you drop me a message I can put you in touch with one dealer I know with a slot.

Very little compares with a CSL, which feels like a track car whereas the Z4M Coupe feels like a very good road car. The Z4M sounds much better than a regular M3, smoother, louder and more interesting but nowhere near as loud or crazy as the CSL. I like them both but for different reasons, ultimately the CSL has a wonderfully stable chassis and accelerates harder at the top-end but the z4M Coupe is easier to live with on the road and very compact. The CSL weighs less than the Z4M Coupe too.
