Tsx Vs Z4 Vs Slk

i have already been thinking about what's my next car after TSX. for a while i m starting to like Z4. the design looks ver sleek and neat, just that i wish there's more hp to it compare to the new SLK. i m really considering of getting either a Z4 or SLK for my next car. any suggestions?

Don't really like either one, but the SLK looks better than the Z4 (crappy design on BMW's part)

I'd go with the SLK, sexy little roadster with the hardtop up or down and the SLK350 is quick too.

I love this SLK:

Sorry to say it, but the SLK really comes off as a :ghey: type of car. And one of the reasons that I say this is that my wife's gay friend has one as well as a guy in another office in my company.

For that money, I'd take a Vette...

I don't think the new SLK comes off as ghey, but I'm with you I'd rather have a C6 Vette.

Smile what's your next car after TSX?

looks like everyone tends to favour SLK rather than the Z4. Yeah, i guess i will take everyone's suggestion. i personally like SLK as well, since it's got more power than the Z4 anyways. i better start saving and looking forward for SLK to be my next car. Besides that, what's everyone's next car after TSX?

I still wish I got the S2000 on warm/sunny days. I love the TSX, but the S2k was what I really wanted. It just wouldn't have worked for me as an only car. Oh well, someday I'll pick up a used one...or an NSX..

S2K is a nice car, but just the design has already been very outdated. when will they actually resigned this car. feels like the design has been around for almost a decade~ like mazda miata for instance.. same thing~

Are you serious??? The design doesn't look outdated at all. They just had the refresh in 2004 and the car has only been in production for 5 years now. It has a classic design and one that I don't think will look dated even 10 years down the road.

Weekend/Track toy, doesn't make a very good daily driver.

Doubtful that the S2K will get any more than a cosmetic freshening any time soon. NSX is going on what, 15 years for the same general design? S2K will probably be the same thing. And fortunately, I love them both (95-01 NSX, 00-03 S2K)

With the changes they made in 2004, it is actually a very good daily driver for areas without snow.

Maybe cause I'm young, but it seems that any production car would suffice as a daily driver. I mean even if I had a Ferrari , it would damn sure be used as my daily driver and it's about as race ready as they come. I don't think a S2k would be any worse.
