      I have. I think they're just "meh." Quickish, not too exciting. Z3's are a bit too small of a car in my opinion. I would, however, really like to drive a 6 speed Z4 35is.

        Z3 3.0 is the only one worth buying in my opinion, 2.5 and 2.8s are meh and the 1.8 is just a bad idea. All handle like they are on rails and are fun with the top down. If you are a bigger person, its a tight fit in those cars! I myself feel like im crammed against the door sometimes. Z3 M's are on a whole 'notha level too :D

        Adding to the side note on Z4's, not a fan of the first gen interiors/seats/shift level. Just ofnthe bed driving position in my opinion. Third (current) gens are much better but they are boats. Z4's are very much just top down cruisers, unless its a M or IS they dont have too much fun factor to them. Really wish they shoved a V8 in these cars.

          Does driving a compact count? The Z3 is really just a roadster version with a little different exterior styling. All of the suspension is the same=P

          I have actually thought about a Z3 for the girlfriend but can't find any that I would be convinced to go and look at.

              I would love an M Coupe. Of course the stance douche in me would ruin it though=P

                      They only sold the coupe with the largest engine trim at the times so they were offered in either m52 or m54 after 2001 and the M coupe was 99-2002 with either the s52 or s54.
