Drove the previous Z4 at -3.5 and that was fine roof down. Found when I got down that low in the Z3, the heater couldn't keep up and I couldn't hear the engine over my chattering teeth.
I do need a couple of extra woolly hats for the car though as my left ear gets cold!

Yesterday morning and this morning have seen white stuff covering the Z
Must be the extra wind in the Z4 cabin
On the Z3 it's my right side that gets cold - the small vent doesn't blow out much on that side yet the Centre vents are like an erupting volcano!
Had my first winter nighttime top down drive last night, trapper hat, scarf, gloves and jacket in place. Forgot how much I like a winter drive, reminds me of riding a bike.
Did see another nutter in an MX5 with hood down, nice to know I'm not alone!

No, I always got a cold left ear in the Z3 as well. One of lifes great mysteries I guess...Must be the extra wind in the Z4 cabin
Have you stuck something over your right ear. You'd be surprised the difference it makes. Stops all that wind blowing right through
Going to have to get heated seats out in mine. Really do need them now.
Rather a cold left in than the usual whine I get in mine
Driving the other day with the top down, it was cold but I had a wool cap but also a fleece lined windbreaker with a hood that also had the fleece lining. It was perfect!!!! The hood really keeps the wind off you and makes all the difference in the world Frankie

Before Igot my Z3 I had a cobra replica v8 5.7 litre and the engine gave off huge heat. Sadly it had an old mini heater and In winter even with fur lined flying jacket, balaclava, wool hat and gloves it was freezing and I often arrived where I was going numb. Nevertheless always enjoyed it and took at least ten minutes to put the roof on if rained. I have to say I do like the heater, heated seats and electric roof on the z3...must be getting soft in my maturing years.
Need a thread on that Cobra!
A member on here @Stormy_be has got one alongside his stripped Z3 that he uses on track.
