Hi guys , after 3 years ownership with an s3, and almost 7 years ownership with my Chimaera, i am getting very tempted to sell.

I have been looking at a few Z4 cars, 2.5 ltr for my son and have been impressed by the build quality and the performance.

So much so that i now find myself scrolling thru the Z4 M Sport ads for a suitable replacement for my Chim.

These are a straight six 3.2 m sport engine with 343 bhp and in my opinion one of the next "classic cars "

There values are starting to climb, but thats not the main reason for me thinking of buying one, its just an added advantage.

Opinions please.

Stands well back and expects plenty of abuse!

do it....the Z4M Coupe is a special little car. I would do the same in your shoes.

Keep the TVR and get something as well (sell off some handbags and shoes if need be ).

I've been thinking what I could replace mine with for years, nothing seems to really make me smile as much. The problem with a lot of new stuff (AMG SLs, GT-R etc) is that they only really seem to sound 'good' when driving quite hard, and the number of places you can do that on the road for any length of time are few and far between. So, I shall be keeping mine when I eventually get around to 'replacing' it.

Honda S2000, great car, completely different drive
Z4M, great car, not as charismatic
Boxster or Cayman?
Nissan 350/370Z?
Tamora?

I saw a lovely 240Z the other day, haven't seen one for ages.

What about the alpina z4, the roadster 3.3s?

5 secs to 60, only 160 odd made. A bit different and rare. Always loved alpina rims......

Worth a read, see how i dropped a tuscan in there

Keep thinking of moving mine on but then sense prevails
Only two options I can think of though

Mercedes 500SL but an auto and still just two seats practically
Lotus Excel - fixed roof, lovely gear change but lacking power (180bhp)
Wedge - but that's three.....

The OP said, "Convince me otherwise" But all we seem to be getting is alternatives to the Z4M. Maybe the too much choice will help him stop looking and keep the chim?? Clever plan,

1 word. Maserati.

surely you meant this?

Maybe, but it won't be fun, I'd stick with Trevor as some have said they will be making very good money come the new ones and people will at last realise just how special and unique they really are. Some people pay £60k+ for poxy kit car replicas! Why proper built cars like ours do not command that sort of money I will never understand. No other country has ever really understood the true sports car concept like the British IMHO!

Another word! Budget!

More words. I don't know the OP's budget but 15k - 20k will buy a Maserati or a Z4M but you might need to scrape out you change pot to buy one of those too!
