Can't argue with Hugh....

this is subjective... I prefer Z4 M roady cuz I think it is much sexier than the coupe. you are buying the car for yourself, not for others; so why would it matter as long as you like it.

jamboMR · 09-26-2008, 06:56 PM

why not just assess this on where you live. i only drive weekends in norcal and never ever drive without the top down so not interested in a coupe at all. but if youre tracking it or live in a rainy area, get a coupe. good luck

Coupe - sexier.

Roadster - the sound of the S54, even at low revs with the top down is breathtaking.

I took the roadster.

If where u live have a decent length summer then buy the roadster otherwise go for the coupe. Personally though i can't justisfy the cost for the coupe, there are just too many coupes out there that are better and cheaper. (Covette, Cayman s, ect...)

How do you figure the Cayman S is cheaper then the M Coupe?

+1. Also, no offense to you guys with roadsters but i think it is more girlish to have a roadster. it will be louder inside and i was concerned about somebody slitting the cloth top.

This is the exact reason I'm waiting for the next-gen Z4. The lines resemble the coupe, but the top pops!

Even more confusing - how's the Cayman better than the M Coupe, but the Boxster isn't better than the M Roadster?

In my opinion, the Ms are great bang for the buck if you're looking for a mid-range German sports car. It's cheaper than the Boxster/Cayman while being as fast or faster, and beats the non-AMG SLKs hands-down for performance, though it's not as nice inside as either.

i will go for roadster!

i dk, mercedes rattle a lot inside and make all sorts of noises we used to have 3. Now we have 2 bmw's in the family and it beat the mb hands down.

I'm more of a fan of the roadster/coupe interior over the merc or the porsche. Nice, tidy, simple... exactly what a roadster should be. Unlike he merc and the porsche with all of the buttons, flashing lights, screens, they're both just a little too busy for my liking.
