1st Impression; Z4 M VS. CS2
Well gents: I have now had my M Roadster for two weeks and I have to tell you, I love this car. How does it compare with my CS2. The answer is simple, it DOESN'T. They are two different animals and I love them both. The M is very quick, nimble and it sounds like music when you get on it. The nose seems a bit long when you 1st drive the car but since your every wish become the car's command almost immeidately, you get used to the long nose fast and starting liking it. The steering is very responsive and once in the sports mode, you feel as if the steering is more communicative. The engine revs freely, the OM says not to exceed 5200 RPM up to the 1st 1200 miles. This car can do 8000 RPM without any hesitation. The power curve is almost perfect at low, mid or high range. I can tell you this my C2S is faster on the fwy and off the line. But the M Roadster is very close off the line and should be cut any slacks or it will be on the C2S tail or perhaps even neck on neck in the 1st two gears. If you drive a C2S and one of these puppies pull behind the light next to you, drive your C2S as if you are mad it and leave no room for the Roadster to get the best of you when you are thinking forplay before the kill. Go for the kill instantly. I am 6'-2" and fit in the car without a problem. The M has fantastric breaks, almost perfect. The car becomes alive after 4000 RPM and turns to a mad beast. The seats are comfortable, the top comes down in 15 seconds or less, the thick steering wheel feels wonderful. The gauges are simple and user friendly. I have a new 5 and I hate the I wheel and all the electronic crap in it. The M roadster is very much like the 911 on the inside, in terms of being simple and practical. Many of you may disagree but based on my impression from the Z8, off the line and for less than half a price the M roadster will give the Z8 a good run considering a delta of 70 H.P.
, the carrera S has no substitute !!!
