Glad to know the MRoady will still be good for something. :smile:

Other than that, the Z4 is supposed to correct the things people b*tched about the Z3 all the time (although ergonomics apparently wasn't on the list). You've addressed the improved handling. And it sounds like there's more room in the cockpit. How does the trunk size compare? The glass back window is an obvious improvement. And the car has run-flats, right, so no funky M mobility kit?
