Congrats on a sweet ride!

I'm just happy only a section of my roof is bird bomb-accessible :ph34r: :P

Shame you'll have to wait until it gets warm again to really enjoy the top down motoring...

Well maybe thats going a bit too far as my top-of-the-line Z4s 3.0-liter inline-six was only capable of zero to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds, but being so close to the ground with the air rushing through my hair made it feel so much faster than the 745Li I just recently tested, even though its not. Its engine makes 225-horsepower at 5,900-rpm and 214 pounds-per-foot of torque at a modest 3,500-rpm, which is not particularly impressive next to a 350Z Roadster, for instance, but the power is adequate enough especially considering the Z4s svelte curb weight of 2,998 pounds. The inline-6 is smooth though, and features BMWs double-VANOS variable valve timing technology, which translated means soul stirring torque throughout

the rev range. Anyone familiar with the refined, athletic characteristics of modern, inline 6-cylinder Bimmer powerplants will understand firsthand the sensory pleasures they can evoke, revving smoothly without constriction, all the while producing a spine tingling exhaust note.
