TO THE POINT What's New? Plop the M3's powerful inline six, a hydraulic rather than electric steering system, a revised suspension, and styling tweaks both functional and decorative into the BMW Z4, and the result is the excellent new M Roadster.
Selling Points: Tons of torque, macho looks, impressive handling
Deal Breakers: High price, lacks refinement, only a tick faster than a stock Z4

2006 BMW M Roadster

Are you kidding me? Yes it's fun to drive. Let's see, two seats, a convertible top, M power and handling, aggressive styling, and enough trunk space for a weekend cruise up the coast. Yeah, I think that equates to fun.
