With an exterior look created by a Danish designer, the Z4 was fun to drive and affordable compared to other competitors in its class. Reaching its 4th generation, the Z4 came with a fresher design that appealed to many of the brand’s fans. The Z4 kept some of the references of an historical car, such as the large hood and the sloping roof. Not only the exterior was attractive, as the new engines boasted even more power, reaching 215 hp with the 3.0-liter power plant. The fuel consumption was also reduced compared to the previous generation of the engines. Available as a 2-seat roadster or a coupe for 2006. The coupe had a fixed roof that improved the body’s rigidity, thus also enhanced overall handling. The styling was even more appealing. The cabin featured a simple cockpit and clean, easy to use controls. Wood trims were also available, however, the standard metallic trim was a real eye-catcher. Safety wise, the Z4 came with antilock disc brakes and a stability control system. Also, side airbags, active knee protection and rollover protection were included. While the Z4 earned a 3-star rating for side-impact, it managed to score 5 stars out of 5 for frontal impact. Fun to drive, not very expensive, and extremely stylish, the Z4 seemed to be a complete package for the passionates.
