Green Z4 Coupe

Post by pennpromo » Mon Jul 11, 2016 1:29 pm

I have just MOTd my high mileage Z4 coupe.
Went through with only one advisory: slight play in lower ball joints so pretty pleased.
Gave her a wash and wax over the weekend which got me thinking:
How many dark green metallic Z4 coupes are there in this country ?
(BMW call it Tiefgruen Metallic A43).
Anyone got any ideas ?
I guess that they must be rare ...

Seems like there are only 23: 16 SI and 7 SE.
Another 41 Roadsters too.

They're all SI. I guess you mean 16 Sport & 7 SE. :thumbsup:

There's 32 Sport & 6 SE coupe's in bright red, so your green is rarer than my red :D

It does look good. Another colour that wasn't popular at the time, but it's time has now come.

Don't know if it's a National thing but around here green cars are seen to be extremely unlucky and to be avoided at all costs....

People say that they are involved in more accidents as harder to pick out against the background, especially in low light.
Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?
