LOL Every time somebody from the UK steps in a roadster they have to mention "hair dresser's car."   Stop. Just stop. It' s an "old saying." Roadsters/spyders, over powered or under powered, do not belong to an occupation, ...and it's just strange.   I've even seen folks from the UK review their own roadsters and mention "hair dresser's car" as a sort of apology-- like it's the elephant in the room or something that they have to  mention but also defy . Get the car you love and drive it. The BMW Z series-- all of them are pretty nice cars regardless of what you do for a living.

it's 2024, the design is from 2009 and it turns heads everytime when driving in the streets. this is a car from times when BMWs were still beautiful. Now we only see ugly cars on the roads.

if you remap a 2.0  you will get 260bhp and 420psi and you'll never stop smiling

I have a 2011 Z4 Sdrive 35 is and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I cant go anywhere without people comment on how gorgeous it is. Its just a blast to drive.

I own a 2016 sapphire-black metallic 28i M-Sport with red leather interior and I must admit: it is the best thing that ever happened to me. I am really convinced now that I will NEVER, EVER sell this one. I have driven the cayman, and even an Aston Martin (Vantage), but the interior of the Z4 is soooo much more appealing than the clinical Aston or the sparse Porsche. Don't get me wrong, I love Porsches, but this generation of Z4 is really in a league of its own. It might not be the best handling car ever, or even the sportiest, but for me the magnificent combination of the sportiness, the wonderful seats, the gorgeous interior, the performance, even as a GT, and especially the low, sexy looks of the car make this Z4 a very, very appealing all-day driver that gives you almost EVERYTHING. I really think this is a pure classic in the making and i am thinking hard about also buying another 35i or 35iS, because theu have the great 6-cilinder engines that are very smooth. But I need it to be in black with red leather also or at least in gorgeous red with black leather, low miles and M-Sport.

I just bought a 2013 z4 35i msport with 80k.  I absolutely love it.  Can't say a thing bad about it.  Such a timeless design.

I've had my 2011 BMW Z4 for about a year now, I sure love this car. It's sleek, it's masculine and it's quite sexy as well as reliable.

Beautiful lines are very reminiscent of the BMW 507 and the Jaguar E type

I sold my 2001 Boxster S for a manual 35i,after suspension mods and a tune I never looked back...

Hi, I love my 2014 20i s-drive, mapped n dyno'd at 263bhp 418Nm & absolutely love this car        I'm not that fussed about 0-60 times n top-speed.       What I do love is that whatever gear I'm in at whatever speed, the slightest squeeze of the throttle & this thing 'pulls like a train,' so smooth, so torquey.  I change quality oil & filters at 6000 miles and service annually        The car has been ultra reliable throughout, now at 47000 total miles It comfortable, great looking, tenacious road tool

Really nice to see a z4 on the channel not many people review em

I own the 35i and it is incredible! Very smooth trans as it blasts up to 90 w/o even trying. Well done video and I believe the e89, with its stylish lines, low/wide profile, and overall good looks inside/out is on its way to becoming a classic.

Always liked these and it's crazy how affordable they are now. Also wish they did an M version especially as they had the awesome Z4 GT3 race car doing well in endurance racing.

Nice two seater! I like how detailed you are 👌

Absolutely love my E89 TWIN TURBO. So much fun to drive.Love the way you British folks Talk. It's funny how y'all dig the tiny engines. us Yanks are super fans of the 35I's with 302 hp.Really looks weird with you sitting in the passenger's seat.

Every car can be a hairdresser s car , and i still do not understand what people have against hairdressers..

Great video Bobby 👍

The E89 came out in 2009 not 2010. They are fantastic cars but I would always have the 6 cylinder over the 4 pot. BMW were forced to discontinue the NA 6 pot and put this 4 pot in solely to meet emission regulations in around 2011 / 2012, sure the marketing blurb says more economical but in reality there isn't anything in it. This car in the video is showing 21mpg and I get 24MPG for town driving in my 30i and around 44+ MPG on a long run! The 6 pot sounds way better and is a more refined drive. The 6 pot NA will hold its value better than the 4 pot too. But if you were to get the 2.0 then you may as well get the 20i and remap it to around the same power level as the 28i and save some cash.

Someone here mentioned timing chain - from an actual owner who tried all the E89 models (literally), I’d say with exception of the 35is, which is a beast, this is actually the better engine and the 28i the model to go for.

The timing chain is a bit of a ghost. There were a few cars affected in 2012 but most had their timing chains upgraded by BMW for free at the time.
I’ve got my 28i for 4 years and still has its original timing chain and no issues at all.

I’m also member of several e89 groups and I’ve not come across anyone who had timing chain issues - People talk about it but usually those who don’t own one and I’ve not met an owner who actually had an issue.

Great reliable engine and pulls like crazy (the 28i has quite a good mapping, 20i and 18i are a bit sluggish). Yes, the 6 cylinder sound better but that’s really about it.

I’ve really not had any issues with it.

The BMW looks very good, but you are very handsome too. Also great review! Thank you. 👌
PS. What are those sunglasses?
