In this exhilarating review by TheStraightPipes, the 2025 BMW Z4 with a manual transmission takes center stage, drawing inevitable comparisons to its Toyota Supra counterpart. Delving into the heart of the matter, the team dissects the transmission experience, pointing out minor quirks and nuances that set the two sports cars apart. While the Z4's manual gearbox is commendable, it falls slightly short of the Supra's transmission prowess, leaving enthusiasts yearning for a tad more finesse in the shifting department.

As the review unfolds, the spotlight shifts to the Z4's suspension tweaks and driving dynamics, revealing a blend of comfort and agility that characterizes the driving experience. Despite some body roll and a hint of playfulness, the Z4 maneuvers through corners with finesse, offering a soft yet engaging ride reminiscent of a luxury Miata. The team applauds BMW's suspension tuning prowess, emphasizing the car's ability to strike a delicate balance between comfort and performance, making it a joy to pilot on a daily basis.

Moving on to the exterior aesthetics, the frozen deep green metallic paint job catches the eye, accentuating the Z4's sleek lines and aggressive stance. Details like the black badges and exhaust tips add a touch of sophistication to the overall design, while the practicality of features like the top-down operation button and trunk space are not overlooked. With a starting price of $82,000 Canadian, the Z4 presents itself as a compelling option for enthusiasts seeking a blend of luxury, performance, and style in a convertible sports car.
