In this exhilarating episode, the team at TheStraightPipes take on the 2023 BMW Z4 M40i with launch control in the wet. And boy, does it deliver! With a whopping 382 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque from its turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 engine, this beast is a force to be reckoned with. But what really blew their minds was the traction and recovery off the launch control. It's like watching a superhero come to life!

But let's not forget the purpose of this car. It's essentially a convertible Supra, and it's clear that BMW has nailed it. The guys were quick to point out that the Supra's manual transmission was a bit of a letdown, but fear not, the Z4 makes up for it with its automatic prowess. The infotainment system, iDrive 7.5, is a dream to use, with all the controls conveniently placed for easy access. It's a perfect match for the car's overall comfort and performance.

Speaking of performance, the Z4's refreshed design is a sight to behold. The front bumper has been subtly modified, but it still retains that iconic BMW look. And let's not forget the stunning purple paint job that adds an extra touch of elegance. The headlights, although a bit peculiar with their spider-eye appearance, still manage to captivate the eye. It's a car that demands attention wherever it goes.

But it's not just about looks and performance. The Z4 offers a comfortable and luxurious driving experience. The seats are a dream to sit in, and the suspension is so well-tuned that it glides over any road imperfections. It's the perfect daily driver, whether you're cruising around town or hitting the open road.

All in all, the 2023 BMW Z4 M40i is a true gem. It's a car that combines power, style, and comfort in one package. And with a starting price of $80,500 Canadian, it's a value proposition that's hard to resist. So, if you're in the market for a convertible sports car that will make your heart race, look no further than the Z4. It's a car that will leave you breathless and begging for more.
