That's funny.
BMW does have some stylists from the Hellen Keller school of design.

My father is seriously considering the M roadster, and with 330+ hp, ITB's etc, I don't blame him.

You guys would not believe what he said about the boxcar to me over the phone yesterday....

Funny, I have two magazines and both have complaints of BMW owners of how ugly the Z4 really looks. I test drove both , the first one was the boxster and at first I though the car had a engine problem the low torque( almost non existing) was hard to adapt, the Z4 was a little more comfortable to get in but it was a pain in the a$$ to get out.

According to this site 0 to 60 and 1/4 times (there are other sources) the 06 S2000 has a 5.5 0 - 60 and a 14.0 1/4. The 03 Boxster S does a 5.1 and 13.8 which is not really a noticeable difference in every day driving and I think Lart is actually considering a non-S version Boxster so the S2000 should actually be quicker.

I was comparing it to a 968 in my head actually........ Which is also slooooow. I have not driven a Z4, and I dont think I have to mention the boxster is sloooooooow. Which part of my post offended you? Is it because you dont like it when I say slooooooooow? I mentioned a 951 cab because I thought it would be a good choice for him. P.S. Sloooooooooow.
