"BMW hasn�t forgotten about making the Z3 2.8 fun to drive, but having a good time is more work than it is with the Miata. It stops on a dime, but not quite as well as the Miata. It provides exceptional feel and feedback through the steering wheel, but not as crisply as the Miata. It grips like Superman on fantastic P225/50 ZR16 Michelin Pilot HX tires, but the Miata�s P195/50 R15 Bridgestone Potenza RE010�s feel stickier. It sweeps through corners with aplomb, but rolls more and is harder to plant properly due to its higher curb weight and larger size. Here�s the deal: the BMW Z3 2.8 is a great sports car, but when you drive it, you feel like you are driving it because the clutch and the steering and the shifter and the body roll constantly remind you. When you drive the Miata, it becomes an extension of your soul. It disappears from view." --Edmunds, 1997
