The E89's fuel usage in normal use is much better than the E86 though. A much cheaper car to live with - a difference I'd expect on the 28i too. The E89 is also a much more refined cabin than the E86 and is much easier to drive (not that the E86 is any way hard), but, the E89 is an unforgivingly hard crashy ride on 19" RFTs.

The Z4 is the successor to the popular Z3 that BMW produced for the 1996-2002 model years. It was a rear wheel drive sports car, with a variety of inline 6 cylinder engines ranging from 184hp all the way up to 330hp. E85 is the chassis designation from BMW for the convertible Z4 (2003-2008) and the M-Roadster (2006-2008).

When I drove a friend's E86 Z4M (coupe, solid roof) I thought the steering feel / feedback was probably the best I've ever felt of the cars I've driven (which

That's an understatement. Hell, it's only $15.00 and only took 20 minutes to install, and yes, I now run -2.5' of camber in the front. I would not dial it back for anything. Car is neutral with a tad of oversteer. just the way it should have come from the factory.
