Both car has stiff suspension but of course the Z4M is stiffer. Z4 3.0si is easier to live with but Z4M is of course more fun to drive. But of course you can have fun with a 3.0si as well.

It depends on what you want.

There is one very good reason to get the M version, you loose the crappy electronic steering, and also you get that amazing engine!

If you can afford for the M version, I think you should get it!

The Z4M roadster is now my daily driver. Coming from an X3 (i.e. very harsh ride), the Z4M is actually softer and more comfortable to live with.

Then again its all relative. If your coming from a softer car perhaps the Z4M will be too harsh on you...

You should also consider, nothing can replace the S54 engine. That and the look of the ///M is what sealed it for me...

I have no experience with either of the vehicles and can only comment on what I have read, but I am under the impression the 3.0Si would be the better daily driver.

Jep! I would also say, that the 3.0Si is the better daily drive - but I have no experience with the Z4! I've never driven one - so I would say, you should go to your dealer and testdrive both cars. And then you can decide, which one is the better car for you!
