Hello - New E89 Owner

Post by panthro » Mon May 20, 2013 10:34 am

Hi there, been browsing here lately as I picked up a 35i M Sport last week. Its sapphire black with coral red leather with the connectivity pack, heated seats, DCT, Pro Nav, PDC and a few other things. Absolutely loving it so far as its my first convertible. The only things I'm missing are a wind deflector (bought the bits, just need to fit them), upgraded audio and DAB, which I'm hoping to sort out at some point. I'll also be fitting a stubby aerial and maybe some CSL wheels if I upgrade the brakes.
I almost considered an M135i but decided the Z4 was much more special. I used to have an E92 M3, and whilst the Z isnt as fast, it certainly isn't far behind; I'm really impressed with the pace it has.

Thanks, once its clean I'll take some half decent pictures. Black is such a PITA to keep clean. I'm planning on machine polishing it and applying Gtechniq.
