Z4 poll told members to ignore the badge for the purpose of the poll....i.e. BMW has 'that' badge...so would win anyway

The same badge that was on that guys car that went off on it's own at 135 MPH

So that's what they mean by the 'ultimate driving machine' then?

BMW may have the better name but in this comparison it hasnt got the better car.
