Hello Frank, I must agree that the Z4 E85 is one of the most beautiful cars of the last 30 years. Frank if you liked the video, I would appreciate you as a follower. You will help us be able to produce more content, and I personally reply to each comment. I hope you do!
I totally agree! I have one from 2005 and every day i find it more beautifull. It's a car-shaped sculpture.All this with a beautifull sound of a good 6-cylinder engine... This car is a great future classic.
I have a 2003 Z4 I bought new and it has been a great car for the last 20 years. We live in Oregon and have been to the East coast twice with it. My wife and I love it. It has a 2.5 engine and a 5 speed. Just changed the oil at 112,000 and pulled the valve cover to see what it looked like inside. I have run Mobile 1, synthetic oil for nearly the entire time and it was beautiful inside. We are in our 70's and will drive it until we can't get in it any more.
Wow ❤️ that is amazing. Keep giving it and receiving love, pass it down to a worthy person when it comes the time. If you liked the video subscribe, like and share to ensure future video creation
I’ve got a 2003 Z4, 3.0, 6 speed. Space gray metallic, premium and sport package. My friend bought it new, drove it for 10 years, then sold it to me. Mine just turned 90,000 miles. It is a joy to drive.
The z4 is a proper roadster I just bought one from an older gentleman who has it for 18 years now it’s mine looks like it’s going to be a beautiful relationship.👍

Still my soulmate in my car life, BMW e85 Z4.. It is a something special to own and driving experience this car. If you like cars, Before the world of batteries and electric plugs came, Be sure to experience Then you realize.. This is the last roadster..!!
I have a 2006 Z4M 6 SPD manual roadster that is a blast to drive. The 3.2 motor is great, this car has been my daily ride in good weather. Fun ride, ladies love it too.
Definitely, it’s look is classic. It will always be attractive to the ladies. Enjoy the vehicle and have a lot of fun driving it (safely). I hope you subscribe
Congratulations on your purchase! Both are beautiful vehicles but in my opinion the Z4 has a classic Jaguar E-Type look that will make it valuable long term. Enjoy
I've got the slightly less powered 2.2i since 2007, Its got the straight six block thankfully. After all these years the car still gives me a thrill to drive and to look at. Nice video thanks..
Hi, dear writers and followers this great channel ! I’m from Russia , from Ural region. Is a snow, cold time now. And my roadster Z4 2007 3.0 in the garage. My father living in Moscow and have z4 too. But, E89. I think is a good connection of the generations, and never-ending talking about auto-specifics. I really enjoy comments, because , almost all with a good vision, with a proud of this car. It’s really seldom situation in our world. I wish for all health, peace. We have a big community z4 fans in Russia, almost 900 person. Almost all participants driving exactly e85. Thanks for emotions, big pleasure ✊
The black switches on the trunk area are for increasing trunk space, it lifts the roof upwards giving you more space, if it's up the roof doesn't work AND you can only use it when the roof is closed, so use only on wintertime or if really necessary, otherwise you can forget it up and wonder why the roof doesn't work (it's blinks orange light as a reminder tho)
have a 2003 Z4 2.5i manual 5-speed urban green with beige interior. Car is constantly getting compliments. Love the car its my car for life. I am one with it when driving the car.
The button above the centre storage is for unlatching the roof when manual operation is engaged. Love my zed 👍🏻 the front looks so much better without a registration plate stuck to it.

Thirty years ago I had a TR5 with a 150 bhp 6 cylinder engine and it was a great car. Since then it has taken many cars to find that my Z4 3.0 is in fact a modern TR and strange too that BMW own the Triumph name that produced the TR. Z4 a modern classic bargain.
Amazing choice Brandon. How many miles does yours have? is it a manual transmission? Looking forward to have you as a follower, if you liked the video. There are more coming.
That’s amazing. Is it the 2.5 as well? Manual or automatic. Also, please give us a like to help us ensure future video creation and if you really liked the video make sure to follow that would be amazing.
I have the 2.5 2005 e85 beatiful car but be ready to fix a lot of minor inconveniences to keep them looking new over the years of owning one. Change the valve seals as bmws seals are infamous to leak oil all over your engine , and if mechanicly inclined reposition your convertible top mortor to your trunk as where it was designed to go in your water drain under the top it fails do to water damage about every 2 years if not serviced.. but aside from making small adjustments the car looks beautiful sounds great and feels amazing when you takw it out top down .
You are indeed correct. This car is perfect mechanically, however, due to time it had the roof motors and hydraulic cylinders repaired. If you liked the video please let us know and help us by subscribing. That way we can surpass the 1K soon. We are growing quickly and respond to each comment.
I have a 2005 2.0 with 6 gear manual transmission, and 150k km mileage It's slow as fuck, but it's fun enough for cruising while obeying the law. And it looks good, that's the most important thing about roadsters anyway. Perfect first car for me as I don't have kids and I'm still young enough to enjoy life The car is not for antisocial people, lot's of people will look at you while driving and come to talk in parking lots. You have to enjoy that. It's okay for daily driving in cities and perfect for summer nights on back roads. I wouldn't want to daily drive this on the highway tho it's noisy af inside and with roof down it's impossible to hear anything. Making an occasional roadtrip is very fun and the cargo space is enough for 2 people unless you travel with a woman ;)
Thank you Fotis. You can see the boot space at the end of the video. I had honestly forgotten about it due to the fun nature of the car. 😅 I’m new making car reviews, it would help a lot to have you as a subscriber since all of the videos are thanks to you, you make this possible by watching and subscribing.
@@RealAutoNerd yeah i saw the boot after the comment cause i though the video was ending when driving away. Very nice review honestly and the most important part for me is that you only say the necessary thing without going on and on just for the sake of talking. i m actually going to buy this car and i came across your review. It really helped me thank you
What cracks me up is the guys that buy them and jus polish them and hardly drive them. Lmao I drive mine like the roadster sportscar s they are intended to be. There made to drive. Change my own oil and do whatever needs done to them myself I even use a microfiber Towels an polish on it now and then 😂😎👌🏁

This car has aged really, really well! First produced from 2002.... 21 years ago!? 😵 It looks far too crisp and modern to be THAT old! Only the fairly basic interior tech shows any sign of age (and actually, I like that clean and basic minimalism). The used prices are also very reasonable and the engines are found in the 3 and 5 series, so easy to service and get parts for. I'm struggling to see any downsides here. It looks to be an almost perfect second/weekend car. I want one!
@@RealAutoNerd Expensive if you buy all parts new from the BMW dealership, yes. But there are other, cheaper options for those who don't mind a bit of DIY.
Even with these years gone after this review, no one really seems to care for these. I have an M in red, but now only a Tesla seems to be seen as a desirable car now days. I think this era of car design was bold, Chris Bangel signed off on this, he did the Fiat Coupe as well, I have two of them also. I think in insides could have been better, but overall these are special. No one will be making anything like this again, it's; ute, suv, or ev, passion is now an appliance... thanks for the review, words echoing down the halls of silence.
Yes, I also have a SLK 55AMG, t171, now that is quite the cruiser, 5.5 litres in a car the same size as the Z4 is quite a feat. I have them sitting next to each other in my garage, they take people by surprise when they see them :-) you only live once...
Hey ummm we’re still buying fixing and driving these I just had one loaded off in my driveway this morning 2005 3.0 z4 silver. If you know you know. Let’s the modern plastic people enjoy their disposable plastic boxes.
@@Johnnygga enjoy the car! Good transmission choice. Very glad to hear that they do a good job. Btw, help us get to 1k subscribers. More videos coming up, including one about the Z4

Dude I’m FL too. I have a 2004 BMW Z4 3.0 liters and it 6 speed manual. I’ve been reducing weights for the vehicle and and it drive more flexible than original. Is it worth it if I spend money to tune this car into a racer?
Hello Husky, the BMW Z4 is a great sports car that would undeniably be an amazing racing vehicle. Reducing its weight while increasing rigidity would certainly make it unbelievable. I would only modify a car with high miles, we must save pristine cars. At the same time, I have to indicate that racing is only acceptable in a controlled environment and with the appropriate licenses and safety.
It's 100,000 + mileage that's why I want to modify it. The engine is M54B30 and it sound like it's turbocharged. Does the OEM engine come with turbocharge (although it feels pretty weak)? Sry I want to understand my car better. I have a friend works in bodyshop trying to convince me to swap the engine with a LS1 or LS3. What do you think of it.
@@Hajiaaa got it. The M54B30 engine does not have a turbo. It is a naturally aspired engine, however it is possible that somebody might have added a supercharger. Take a look under the hood and it should be clear if it has one (it should look like a long pipe with a big circular part at the end). The LS series engines from GM are quite good but you most likely would have to change the transmission as well (I’m not a mechanic). I recommend to maybe do that once your current engine and transmission die (it should be relatively soon since you are tracking it). That would be more financially sound
Haha, it’s a beauty. Good luck finding a good one Konrad. If you liked the video watch the others that I posted.Also, if you follow us we will appreciate it since it’ll help us get to 1000
Wrong again the M didn’t come out until 06 so it doesn’t have M sport suspension the seats are an option in an non M. However not sure if they where even offered pre 06.
Wow! That would be amazing. Enjoy the vehicle and let us know what engine and transmission you choose to buy. I hope you liked the video, a like share and subscribe helps us a lot!
@@RealAutoNerd the Alfa Romeo Brera is incredibly beautiful, I have owned it for 10 years, but in terms of driving, it is rather disappointing. And it's diesel. I have been looking at the Z4 E85 for years, I think I will buy one in 2023, maybe one of the first examples (2003)
3:15 - This guy 🤦🏻♂️. The trim on the dashboard and center console is completely aluminum. Cold to the touch in winter, warm/hot in summer Ambient lighting isn't RED it's AMBER 3:44 Three stage heated FRONT seats, how about the REAR? Is this guy a dummy? Or is this guy a dummy? Like is this really your car?
Your points have previously been addressed. Everybody that has sat on that car thinks the aluminum looks and feels like plastic, might be one of the best implementations of plastic looking aluminum in the market. Front seats. I take that one. Amber? Wow
@@RealAutoNerd Soo you’re saying that the trim on that particular car is plastic, as you said in the video it’s made out of plastic? Hmm ok 🤔 And by the way I’m not one that just SAT in the car, I actually own one. (3.0, with a third pedal) Nobody’s ever told me that they THINK or FEELS it’s plastic... and yes amber is a color in case you weren’t aware...

Dude I’m FL too. I have a 2004 BMW Z4 3.0 liters and it 6 speed manual. I’ve been reducing weights for the vehicle and and it drive more flexible than original. Is it worth it if I spend money to tune this car into a racer?
Hello Husky, the BMW Z4 is a great sports car that would undeniably be an amazing racing vehicle. Reducing its weight while increasing rigidity would certainly make it unbelievable. I would only modify a car with high miles, we must save pristine cars.
At the same time, I have to indicate that racing is only acceptable in a controlled environment and with the appropriate licenses and safety.

It's 100,000 + mileage that's why I want to modify it. The engine is M54B30 and it sound like it's turbocharged. Does the OEM engine come with turbocharge (although it feels pretty weak)? Sry I want to understand my car better. I have a friend works in bodyshop trying to convince me to swap the engine with a LS1 or LS3. What do you think of it.
yes I subscribed your channel
@@Hajiaaa got it. The M54B30 engine does not have a turbo. It is a naturally aspired engine, however it is possible that somebody might have added a supercharger. Take a look under the hood and it should be clear if it has one (it should look like a long pipe with a big circular part at the end). The LS series engines from GM are quite good but you most likely would have to change the transmission as well (I’m not a mechanic). I recommend to maybe do that once your current engine and transmission die (it should be relatively soon since you are tracking it). That would be more financially sound
You love it even when you see him dropping oil, like in the start of the video hahaha
Was it really dripping oil? I did not notice 😳. This one seemed completely clean unlike others from the same age
Don't give the car popularity rn I'm trying to buy one
Haha, it’s a beauty. Good luck finding a good one Konrad.

@@RealAutoNerd you got it!
How you got a 2.5i with the m sits?
There was an optional sport and premium packages that included that and a couple extras like the M suspension
If you liked the video please follow to help us create more videos
Wrong again the M didn’t come out until 06 so it doesn’t have M sport suspension the seats are an option in an non M. However not sure if they where even offered pre 06.
@@anthonygillesse7242 it was referred as I indicated by BMW North America
It’s only a sport package with M “inspired” seats and suspension
I still have one with just 7000 miles on it.
Wow! Which year? That’s impressive
2004 3.0 sport
Wow it might be one of the examples with the lowest miles
@@RealAutoNerdmines a 3.0si 2008 with 16k, so pretty low, but don't drive it much
@@gregsmith1070 remarkable. Very low miles. It may be one of the best kept on the wild
Hope it stays forgotten (keeps it cheap so i can finally own a beamer at 20 years old)
Wow! That would be amazing. Enjoy the vehicle and let us know what engine and transmission you choose to buy. I hope you liked the video, a like share and subscribe helps us a lot!
Amy Winehouse on 4 wheel
Quite an interesting analogy! What are you driving?
@@RealAutoNerd I currently own an Alfa Romeo Brera, but I have plans to buy a Z4 2.5i. Amy and the Z4 are two icons of my adolescence
@@SuperMaccy75 amazing choices. The Alfa Romeo Brera is also a beautiful vehicle. Both will be extremely expensive in a few decades
@@RealAutoNerd the Alfa Romeo Brera is incredibly beautiful, I have owned it for 10 years, but in terms of driving, it is rather disappointing. And it's diesel. I have been looking at the Z4 E85 for years, I think I will buy one in 2023, maybe one of the first examples (2003)
I am of the opinion that a well-maintained Z4 is like putting money into a good-performing savings plan
Heated front seats 😅
Did I say that? Wow 😆
This guy know nothing about roadster sportscar sobviously lol. I did like his accent 😂😂😂😂😎👌🏁
I’ll take the compliment 😅😂
These cars are chick magnets! Im married and don't do that anymore but if you want female attention this is the car for you. Listen up young men!
haha! that is true. This thing looks polished, refined, elegant and timeless.
3:15 - This guy 🤦🏻♂️. The trim on the dashboard and center console is completely aluminum.
Cold to the touch in winter, warm/hot in summer
Ambient lighting isn't RED it's AMBER
3:44 Three stage heated FRONT seats,
how about the REAR?
Is this guy a dummy? Or is this guy a dummy? Like is this really your car?
Your points have previously been addressed. Everybody that has sat on that car thinks the aluminum looks and feels like plastic, might be one of the best implementations of plastic looking aluminum in the market. Front seats. I take that one.
Amber? Wow
@@RealAutoNerd Soo you’re saying that the trim on that particular car is plastic, as you said in the video it’s made out of plastic? Hmm ok 🤔 And by the way I’m not one that just SAT in the car, I actually own one. (3.0, with a third pedal) Nobody’s ever told me that they THINK or FEELS it’s plastic... and yes amber is a color in case you weren’t aware...
@@RA-xx3og what I’m saying is that it looks like plastic. I own the car as well. Beautiful vehicle

?
@@RealAutoNerd really sorry that was posted by mistake. Maybe the kids checked my viewed videos history 😆
