    I have same issue with transmission, when its neutral and clutch up. My car is not BMW Z4 but it is -97 Honda Prelude. I have think to put ATF to my gearbox. I think BMW uses ATF also but there might be case they have but normal gearbox oil in your transmission as in my. Many people are using ATF also in manual gearbox and have better results than with normal normal oil.

With manual gearbox ,engine sound is More deep at low rpm 3:42 it look like a M sound i dont know if it is only on mine or on all auto box but my engine sound is not same at all however n52 is same with the 2 transmission i still wonder how is it possible as engine sound should be same regardless of transmision type On realoem back box exhaust has different part number on auto and manual ) but not sure it is the culprit i have investigated but dont know where this problem comes from next step is to replace my sound generator .

    I've had sooo many cars over the years but never a BMW. People I know have always told me that the cost of repair would destroy any love for the brand. But recently I've come across a 2009 328i convertible that I just fell in love with only 85k. I'm not looking for top end speed, but wide band of usable power without the worry of the twin turbos. After see this video and a few others, I think I'll have a mechanic look it over, and if it's in great shape I will pull the trigger. Thanks !

    The BMW Z4 3.0si Coupe with a manual transmission (828 units in North America) is a standout rarity: - **BMW Z8**: Even rarer with 2,543 units in the U.S., underscoring the exclusivity of both models. - **Audi R8 V10 Manual (First Gen)**: The Z4 is rarer in North America among only 828 units. - **Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1**: Fewer units compared to the ZR1's 4,684 units, the Z4 Coupe maintains a unique appeal. - **Lotus Exige S (North America)**: With similar limited numbers, the Z4 highlights BMW's exclusivity among only 828 units. - **Dodge Viper (Final Gen)**: The Z4's scarcity outpaces this iconic American sports car's approximately 2,000 units, making it a prized addition for collectors and enthusiasts.

      Very different cars to be honest, to me the N52 in the Z4 is a nicer and more interesting engine, the Z4 is also a lot more physical to drive. The GR86 feels quite small, agile and light on its feet and of course comes with a much newer interior etc. Really depends what sort of experience you're after, both are great cars

    They are not in any way a proper sports car; the gearing is far too long, every gear last ages to get through, I find they feel quite slow as a result. They have heavy flywheels so don’t Rev anything like how a Ferrari does, the throttle is slow to respond, and the they feel very ‘diluted’ as if it’s been subdued for the mass market of idiot ms that have no clue about cars. Sure they handle well, but the drivetrain is a real let down, the 996 Carrera engines respond poorly to any modifications apart from a light flywheel. This will shock you but I turbocharged a mk1 Eunos Roadster and it was far more fun than the 996 I got afterwards, diluted and soft, a GT perhaps, certainly not a proper sports car.
