D4V3 GT4 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Seen this for sale in the colour I want (forget the bonnet stripes!) What you reckon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesterfield Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I do think they look one hell of a lot better than the standard Z4, and the M is apparently quite a motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Personally, no. Especially with the stripes!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Wilson Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 How much dude? I toyed with the idea of getting one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4V3 GT4 Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 38K it must have been at least 45-46k new, only 2k on the clock! I still don't think it's as good looking as the Zed, but it's an amazing drive! Yeah those stripes would be coming straight off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah those stripes would be coming straight off! I agree about it not looking as good as the Zed, but I'd have one if I could afford it. I think they look cool in black and yes I'd lose the stripes.

M13KYF Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 yes like chris said it's a improvement over the soft top version. Just not a big fan myself. something to do with the front lights not looking right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomoto Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 looks OK in the white paintwork , I would like one , but think it will be prudent to buy one in a couple of years time ., when they are well below the £20k mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Oh, yes! You know I approve Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmmackfc Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Not a Z4 fan myself, although I would agree it looks a lot better than the base models. I can see why you'd want to say cheerio to the stripes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Not a fan of white. I think the Z4 coupe looks cramped. Saw a nice blue one in EVO with the CSL wheels on it. It looked awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that too and it looked great. Better pics on the EVO website. Had a strut brace fitted under the bonnet aswell iirc. They definitely look smaller in the flesh than the Zed.

Stew Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Yep, the guy raided the upgrades list. It was meant to be a huge improvement over standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trev-the-Rev Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've liked the look of the M since it first came out. EVO magazine gave it a bit of a poor write-up though on the account of it's tendency to understeer when pushed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captint Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Evo rate the 3.0i higher than the M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickya Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Very nice though pricey, more power than zed, faster, but zed is a better handling, more balanced from what I have read. Though saying all that I think they would be a bargain in 3 years time at approx £20k as Lomoto said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D4V3 GT4 Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Evo rate the 3.0i higher than the M Driven both, the Z4M is a different car, I know what they were saying though, is it a 10k difference? Well maybe not but it's still the best car I've driven over the past couple of years. I said last time, if anyone gets the chance, just book a test drive and you'll understand where I'm coming from!

Stew Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I wouldn't mind the chance but the BMW dealers here are idiots and wouldn't take me seriously because of my age or the fact I don't wear a suit to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I remember my old man going in and looking at a brand spanking 745i. H|e went in at the weekend during the week and then through the week he had a meeting beside the dealers so went in again. They were all trying to help then. He declined and bought a merc instead! I might go and see if I can book a test drive anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
