But, I disagree about comfort....
I'm 6' & I have far more room in my Z4M than I did in my G. (head & leg)
I can easily wear a helmet & still clear the roof.
& the M seats are in a different league entirely.
-I don't know if the power M seats have more adjustment or not though....

Z4M..and it looks good..
how's the performance compared to G35 6mt?
They aren't even close. The Z has about the same performance as the E46 M3: 1/4 mile in about 13.4, but it stickers for around $57K decently equipped. Of course almost all Dealers are discounting them because not many people like the Z's styling. Personally the styling doesn't bother me. The lack of any trunk space is my issue.

Eventually it will be discontinued when the new Z2 comes out. (~ 3yrs)
Z2 is supposed to get the TT engine & be about 400lbs lighter;
more of a true sports car.
A new Z8 will become the new halo car for BMW.

Z2 is coming and a Z9. Z4M destroys the G coupe in every category performance wise. I ran 13.3 on the track so it's faster than the M3 stock. Hell of a car to drive and for purists only, if you don't like driving fast and go to track, don't buy it, the looks is just a bonus for the rest of the car.

I am truly in a fix on what to get. The G35 looks fantastic from outside but the interior is not that great (hate the '80s steering wheel), not to mention the horror stories about bad engines, brakes, rattles and tire problems.
The Z4 is a nice package, sounds like a reliable car and looks modern. I lose the option of carrying more than one passenger, and the car looks a bit small. Not a deal breaker though
