2011 BMW Z4 2 5 23i sDrive 2dr | Review And Virtual Video Test Drive

[@Kref3]

Oh my, nice color. I have an 35i with manual transmission in dark blue metallic, which also looks gorgeous, but my color is a bit more common, yours is quite special. Apart from the manual shifter I have the same interiour though, beige leather and wood instead of aluminium (never understood why people go for metal on the dash board, the wood looks much nicer). And of course my steering wheel is on the right side .... which means it is on the left. I am actually quite puzzled. When you search for E89 on KZbin, you will find 50% British videos. This car must have been a great success in a country where the sun shines not that often.

Wood veneer on a sportscar? Not a fan unless you are going for the pipe and slippers, Jag saloon look. Metal is much more sporty. But hey, each to his own. If you like it that's all that matters.

In Cairns Australia, looking for Z4 S23i and came across this review. I thought I recognised the scenery! Ex Prestonion. Great review btw.

[@BarrieCrampton]

[@zachduke8830]

Barry you could sell snow to the eskimos

[@BarrieCrampton]

selling good cars is easy for an honest guy, selling bad cars is impossible 😎

[@mohdarifarifhafizi9874]

Thanks you barrie

[@tombell7670]

Nicely presented video, lovely car, unfortunately we're looking for a later 2014 plus model in white with red leather m spec

[@BarrieCrampton]

thanks, the last BM convertible we had with that colour combination sold within 5 minutes of going on line, happy hunting !!!!!!

[@1977JohnBoy]

tempted by these but im around 6'4 and didn't know if i'd have much room but you look quite tall too?

[@BarrieCrampton]

im about 6ft but there is a good amount of seat adjustment so try one first

[@fastestonearth1]

Nice review thinking of buying this exact spec 🤔

[@kieranfowkes5061]

Great review Barrie 👍

[@BarrieCrampton]

Thanks for watching Kieran

[@jasonfoy7847]

What colour is it please

[@BarrieCrampton]

I think it was Mojave Brown Metallic

[@marcusskyfall]

#headlightflash 👍😀

[@BarrieCrampton]

i try to remember, but its difficult to do it on that road now, they are making it into a through road so its always busy, it was a dead end

[@pipplepopple]

Exchanged my Eos 3.2 for a Rangey with you as I might have lost my licence with the Eos, but really fancy a Z4, was thinking of a 4 series conv but don't do enough private miles to warrant the cost at the moment...Z4 ..nice

[@VPfisi]

What kind of rims are those?

[@markboon9327]

Your brave roof off baz brrr

[@BarrieCrampton]

it wasn't off for long

[@mohdarifarifhafizi9874]

Wow car BMW Z4 good luck

[@flybobbie1449]

0-60 6.6 is the manual, the auto is slower. But the gear box on manual can be notchy so the auto is probably faster with quicker shift..

[@newbeginnings8566]

Annoying that the same car costs twice as much in Europe... Grrrr... What a bargain for £10k

[@BarrieCrampton]

we sell the odd car to people in Europe, a guy came from Gibraltar to buy a Jag Estate a few weeks ago

[@tony5006]

You're selling this car and you don't know about the "Soft Close" boot lid? You don't have to slam it down like you did. Doh! Oh. and you could leave the roof down and still mount your Go Pros to the side windows. Glad I didn't buy my 23i from you.

[@BarrieCrampton]

I'm glad you didn't buy it from me too, who on earth cares about a soft close boot, and convertibles look awful with the windows up and the roof down anyway, get a life and stop trawling the internet looking for things to moan about and show how knowledgable you are on z4's its a bit sad!

[@neorider9183]

what a boring car

[@BarrieCrampton]

Actually Not a boring car, great fun and great to drive
