Like the Mazda MX-5, the BMW Z4 is a fun roadster to daily
What is it like to drive a two-door roadster? Well, apart from the obvious that you somehow stick out like a sore thumb, driving a low-riding convertible means you get to be Mr. Cool.
Let's start with its looks. While BMW could have made drastic changes in updating the Z4, they actually practiced restraint. It gets a restyled front grille that features a new honeycomb design without the extra 3D effect its predecessor used to have. Unlike most BMWs nowadays that have most of their controls and settings buried in the infotainment screen, the Z4’s cabin is surprisingly more traditional. Yes, it has a digital instrument panel and a touchscreen media display but it’s one of the remaining few BMWs that still have plenty of physical buttons on the dashboard and center console.
With a push of a button, the Z4 rumbles into life as it delivers quite a throaty exhaust note from startup. Once it's done with its cold start warmup, the Z4 immediately quiets down like a regular daily. Speaking of daily, I have to say that the Z4 is one of the few sports cars you can actually daily. Yes, the ride is a bit stiffer than let’s say an MX-5 but that is to be expected from a convertible sports car.
Don’t think for a second the Z4 is a boring roadster that’s masquerading as a sports car, far from it. Introduce it to long and winding roads and you’ll be surprised by its agility. Not only does the Z4 remain flat and composed through the turns but it delivers tactile feedback to the driver while doing it. Set the drive mode to Sport and the Z4 just comes alive with faster acceleration and sharper steering response.
