What We Like

Acceleration
Handling
Decent ride quality (sDrive30i, sDrive35i)
Driving ease
Vastly improved iDrive system
Compelling styling

What We Don't

Trunk volume with top down
High price, with options
Too much brake-pedal travel
Ride comfort in sDrive35is
Some inconsistent interior pieces

The two-seat Z4 roadster uses a standard folding metal hardtop. Trim levels include the sDrive30i, turbocharged sDrive35i and high-performance sDrive35is. All three have standard Dynamic Drive Control, a feature that allows drivers to vary steering and accelerator settings to suit their tastes. Anyone considering the entry-level Z4 might cross-shop Nissan's redesigned 370Z; a loaded Z4, on the other hand, could compete with the Mercedes-Benz SLK, Audi TT or Porsche Boxster.
