2010 BMW Z4

The 2010 BMW Z4 is happy to compete with the likes of the Audi TSS, Chevrolet Corvette and the Mercedes Benz SL Class. With retail pricing between $46,000 and $61,050, BMW jumps in offering a powerful example of what a modern sporty convertible should be. Excellent auto financing options are available now. It's presented in two trims: sDrive30i and sDrive35i. The Z4 looks like a classic 2-seated roadster, but upon closer inspection offers far more, including a 2-piece aluminum retractable powered hardtop. It's elegant, yet immediately strikes onlookers as capable of high speeds and big fun!

On the inside, there's ample room for two adults to enjoy long cruises in the country, or shorter shots down the main street strip. You'll find 39 inches of headroom, 53 inches of shoulder room and a very respectable 42.4 inches of legroom. Maximum cargo capacity is reported a 10.9 cubic feet, just enough for packing a picnic, some gear for a day hike and a nice bottle of chardonnay.

The BMW 2010 Z4 has been designed and meticulously manufactured to offer new owners a sporty convertible driving machine that's both elegant and intelligent.
