The editors of the Australian magazine Cars Guide have spent some time with the 2011 BMW Z4 sDrive35is and share their impressions on the M-like version of BMW’s Z4 Roadster. Before getting to their review, let’s review briefly the technical details around this high-performance Z4 model. The sDrive35is carries under the hood an upgraded version of the popular N54 engine, the very same award winning six-cylinder 3.0 liter twin-turbo engine. The tuned up engine produces 335 horsepower (340hp in Europe) at 5,900 rpm and 332 lb-ft in “regular mode”. An electronically-controlled overboost function can briefly increase torque under full load by another 37 lb-ft.
