Traditionally, the BMW Z4 has sat somewhere between the Porsche Boxster and Audi TT on the sports car spectrum. Not quite as dynamically focused as the former, but also more overtly sporting than the latter. In this CarGurus review, Dan Prosser assesses if the latest entry-level model, the Z4 sDrive 20i, represents a break with tradition.

Pros
More sporting than earlier Z4 generations, but still easy to live with
Refined engines and a comfortable ride make long drives a pleasure
Decent boot space for a sports car

Cons
Not as engaging as a Porsche Boxster
Relatively high running costs of M40i
No fixed-roof version (unless you count the Toyota Supra)

The CarGurus verdict
The most enthusiastic drivers will still be better served by the Z4’s long-standing competitor from Porsche. Nonetheless, this latest model does close the gap to the 718 Boxster thanks in part to wider tracks and a shorter wheelbase, physical characteristics that improve agility and handling precision. The previous Z4, on the other hand, was a more sedate car with little to recommend it for keen drivers.

A sizeable boot (for a two-seat roadster, at least), plenty of standard equipment, a good level of refinement and a cushioned ride all make the Z4 a very amenable everyday proposition. This isn’t the kind of sports car that stretches your patience to snapping point in normal driving. As long as you like the car’s styling and you aren’t searching for the most rewarding driving experience out there, the latest BMW Z4 has an awful lot going for it.
