you sure, i was positive it said z4m. either way, id like to see how close it comes to the cayman s. you gotta think tho, the z4m roadster does have a lower center of gravity.

Agreed. A friend of mine ordered one of the first Cayman S's on the west coast, he LOVES it. I've driven it a few times and it's an excellent car. If only they'd offer an LSD...
