Z4 Coupé

[Pulse]

Here are a few photos of my Z4 Coupé. I absolutely love it!

I picked the car up on Friday 27th March, and it is excellent, with a lovely spec!

First, here are a few photos of it having just had a quick clean, outside my house.












Now, a few photos of my trip out today with Fidgits, and his Z4M Roadster.

First, off to an industrial estate.






Then, off for a good drive!






Needed to stop for a spot of lunch! (Fully inclusive of ants!)




Then off for another drive!




Some more shots of the day...

I personally can't answer this, as I haven't driven both hard, however they both have their merits. Different exhaust notes, clutches, etc; so it depends on what you like the feel of I suppose.

A Z4M Coupe?

I fell in love with the wheels on my Coupe, too. I made sure I got all the essential options, which for me includes the BMW 108 Style wheels!

Thank you Martin.

It is a beautiful interior, and a credit to BMW. All the little touches are fantastic, and feel solid. The leather is upgraded nappa, so is very nice (another option that was on my 'must have' list).

It was purely that I got bored of the VXR. I change cars a lot, in the search of the right car. If this one lasts longer than 6 months, it may well be it. Only time will tell....

Yep, keeping it clean is going to prove a pain, but I'm typically quite 'nice' to my cars, so it'll hopefully stay in good condition.

For me, the 3.0 was very smooth and refined, whereas the M had much more urgency, and while the book says the Si is only 0.7 seconds slower to 60, and i'd say thats quite accurate - for me, the M just felt much faster..

I think the M feels better to drive, but the fact BMW got rid of the electronic power steering and run flats probably has as much to do with that as the improved suspension.

Yep, I need to get some good stuff. Never had leather seats before! (Absolutely in love with leather heated seats!)

Improved suspension, but no lower, which I think we both found odd... Thought it'd be at least a tad lower.
