All hail the mighty DOHC straight 6:hail: . Those things are pretty peppy. My buddies dad has one and it will set you right back in the seat. It is a 5 speed and weighs nothing (convertable). I think it will spank you. sorry

Is it just me or do the Z3 and M Roadster look A LOT alike?? But the BMW M engine, makes it better than the Z3 right?

Im not an expert on BMW's but the M classes are usually based on normal models, so the M Roadster IS a Z3. The M3 is based on the 3 series, get it 3? And the M5 is the 5 series. So yes Id expect them to look at least somewhat similiar heh. Also Its more then just an engine, things like handling etc. are tweaked.
