The chassis is stiff, the steering is precise, and the exhaust note from that silky six is genuinely rewarding.BMW Z4 Features and InteriorA Roadster Built for the Driver The Z4 Roadster cabin is driver-focused by design everything angles toward the person behind the wheel. The 2.5i trim delivers a well-appointed interior with supportive sport seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and BMW's intuitive control layout that has aged remarkably well. The power-folding soft top drops quickly and stows cleanly, transforming this car from grand tourer to open-air roadster in seconds.Driving with the top down on a Marin County afternoon, with Pacific air rolling in from the coast, is about as good as California car ownership gets. This is exactly the car built for that moment.BMW Z4 Reliability and OwnershipWhat Owners and Mechanics Say About the E85 Z4 The first-generation Z4 known internally as the E85 has developed a strong reputation among enthusiast owners for its mechanical durability when properly maintained.
