The old M54 3.0i takes 14.0 seconds to reach 1/4 mile. The new N54 3.0Si takes 13.7 seconds to reach 1/4 mile. The Z4M isn't very quick either, as it takes about 13.2 seconds.

Wait. You're not making any sense.
By your logic, if every Z4 driver is middle aged white-collar, then every S2000 driver must be an asian male in his 20's who weighs 145lbs. And we all know Asians can't drive (not being a racist; I'm asian). So that must mean S2K owners can't drive, which contradicts your saying that S2K owners know how to drive properly.
And yes you can turn off the traction control in the Z4/Z4M.

When did they start putting the N54 in the Z4? I thought they were using the non-turbo N52 motor in place of the M54.

I guess you did not see my "(**That I have seen)." Next time I say something like that. I will yell and put it in all caps so it is not overseen like you did.
Not very smart/educated, are you?
