Interesting, thanks for sharing. The Z4 is not really liked by women here (I think), haven't seen women driving it, mostly men but often over 40 or so. I guess German women like practical cars and since a Roadster has no rear seats. Smiley

Younger people here usually cannot afford this car, they go for the Mini convertible instead which is more than half the price, very popular especially with younger women here in Germany. The 1 or 2 series convertibles (used) are also popular. 

Boxster isn't a women's car anymore it seems, most Boxsters I've seen lately are driven by men. Funny: Most 911 convertibles I see are driven by women. Smiley May be a German thing though only.

I leased the Z4, so I do not care about depreciation. Smiley

Missing are your wife’s impressions?  Is this not to replace her car? 
Here in the US the Boxster is always going to be a lady’s car thanks to the Two and a half Men episode where Alan owned one. The Z4 may suffer a bit along those lines due to association.  

smiley ... no, it was a Boxster S ... smiley
