After the Boxster S the BMW Z4 M Roadster is my fav. car, so I'd imagine the Coupe would be just as fun although you lose the ragtop which is a deal breaker for me.

I can't tell you how many times I thought of buying a Z4 M Roadster. I must of test driven that car at least 5 times by now in less than 1 year LOL

In the end the steering of the Boxster S is just too natural and full of feel compared to the BMW's, and that sound coming from behind my ears at 7000RPMs....

What I DO love about the Z4M is the low driving position, great short-throw shifter that your right wrist naturally falls on and that amazing high-reving engine....80000RPMs....*drool*

Plus it transitions very quickly, steering response is great.

I only wish the steering has a tad more feel. It does have good weight to it, but it's not as communicative as the Porsche.

Tough call, but I say you should buy it, life is too short, we need to experience different cars!
