Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryA redesign is never really complete until you have the full engine lineup involved. With last year’s redesign of the Z4, BMW left the iconic inline 6-cylinder engine on the shelf, leaving only 4-cylinder power for the punchy little roadster. This year, the I6 returns with the M40i trim, promising plenty of power to please the people. | |
