2008 BMW Z4 Roadster

Vehicle Summary: 2008 BMW Z4 Roadster

The BMW Z4 Roadster is hard to beat in terms of pure driving pleasure. It is even less practical than its sibling, the BMW Z4 Coupe, but put the top down, and all is forgiven. The Z4 Roadster comes in two models, the Z4 Roadster 3.0i and the sportier 3.0si, which packs a few more horsepower and a stiffer suspension. A six-speed manual transmission is standard. A six-speed automatic that can be taken through the gears manually is optional.
