Launched in January, the Z4 M-Roadster convertible sports car became the newest addition to BMW’s collection of super fast cars. Instead of updating the Z4, BMW developed a hybrid of the M-motorsport and the 2-seater Z4 roadster.

The new fast car Z4 M-Roadster is presented with a front valance styled after the M5’s air splitter, while the back bumpers are integrated with down-force inducing rear diffuser and quad pipes.

Under its impressive snout, this hot cool fast car is powered by a 3.2-liter inline-six engine (derived from the last M3, which has been reigned the five-time super automobile International Engine of the Year).

The BMW Z4 M-Roadster is a fast cool car that delivers 343 horsepower at 7,900 rpm and 262 ft-lbs of torque at 4,900rpm from its 198 Ci/3246 Cc six-cylinder Motorsport engine.

The M-Roadster fast car’s impressive engine is accompanied by a Getrag six-speed manual transmission and M differential that results in stability and running smoothness, outstanding traction, short shift travel, and exceptional acceleration.

Z4 M-Roadster has proven to be a very fast car producing an acceleration of 60 mph in 5 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph.

An impressive feature of the Z4 M-Roadster fast new car is the speed-sensitive variable M differential lock, (already existing in the BMW M3), which provides superior traction and driving stability especially on roads requiring a higher standard to enhance the positive rear-wheel drive features.

The Z4 M-Roadster is not just a super fast car; its design reflects genuine BMW functionality. The engine lid, air-intake scoops, kidney grille, every line and openings of this technical fast car has distinct purposes to support the car’s overall performance.

The interior of this superb sports car boasts sophisticated materials and shapes, which are available in four colors and two leather trims, perfect for motorsport adventures.

Z4 M-Roadster new fast cars can be purchases in five different exterior colors to fit one’s personality.

The M-motorsport and Z4 is an excellent combination since the Z4 M-Roadster now comprises of Z4’s competent chassis with M3’s muscular body and engine.

BMW retained important features that the flame-surfacing M effect provides as well as the M Roadster’s braking system allowing a 120-foot stop from 60 mph.  This long-awaited sports car guarantees exceptional driving satisfaction from both its standard and additional features.

Brand new features of the Z4 M-Roadster super automobile include adaptive LED tail lamps, upgraded acceleration, modern chassis and improved steering, brakes and direct throttle. The overall configuration of the 2006 Z4 M-Roadster works in perfect harmony and deserves to be the center of attention among any other convertible roadsters available in the market.
