Ya know... i've been looking at the Z3 M roadsters forever especially the 2001-2002 model where it has the 333hp motor. Mmmm... come to think of it, if I find one right now with a M/T, i would pick it up.
Conveniently all of the Z3 M's were manuals. However the M Roady was a flexy sucker. The M Coupe was 2.6x more rigid. The Z4 roadster was nearly as stiff as the Z3MC and the coupe was a little stiffer than that.

So if you want a convertible, the Z4 M Roadster with the S54 might be preferable. Plus the S54 made a few more hp in the Z4 than the Z3, at least on paper.
