My mum has the same car, but with the 2.8L engine. I love it. It has the M seats, M steering wheel and M suspension. Its a middle east spec one, so not sure if its any different from the US model. They never sold the hardtop non-M version in Ireland or the UK.
It handles very well, and its just a sezy beast me thinks. The more you look at it, the more it makes sense.
If I had to drive a BM, it would be an M-car, and it would probably be the Z-M coupe. In Ireland and UK, they have 320hp, whats the US rating?
