Doug's Take

The BMW Z4 M Coupe is a really cool and underrated sports car – its mandatory 6-speed manual transmission and S54 6-cylinder engine from the E46 M3 provide plenty of driving thrills, and its unique design gives it a more distinctive look – and added practicality – compared to the Z4 M Roadster. This particular example touts low mileage and no modifications, which are fantastic benefits. Plus, this Z4 M Coupe comes with a clean, accident-free Carfax report, for added peace of mind.

It was one of the first BMW models styled under the guidance of Chris Bangle, and it shared no styling cues with its predecessor.
