Back again with my 4th Z4 (E89 35i)

Post by gadgetJunky72 » Thu Mar 21, 2019 5:14 pm

Hi Folks,

Been on and off this forum for a few years now. Just purchased my 4th Z4. I blame it on the G29 Z4 unveiling I went to a few weeks back.

Previous: E85 3.0, E89 35i, E89 35i, E89 35is (I never should have sold this one)

Current: E89 35i, space grey with black leather heated sports seats. adaptive suspension. sat nav. usb audio.

I decided not to get another 35is as I'm planning on modding this one (intake, exhaust, remap) to get similar performance. I'm also thinking about what to do with the stereo as it didn't come with DAB. Options are retrofit DAB, install an Apple Carplay module or replace the sat nav screen with an android screen.

Some pics from the dealer as they are better than anything I could produce.

Cheers

Pav

Milltek was going to be my choice too. I think I’m going to go to Evolve in Luton for a remap. First I want to sort the stereo.

Good luck with sourcing a Milltek system as I believe they don't do one anymore for the Z, I think someone on here even asked them directly to build them one and they refused for some strange reason.

That's a shame. did you have a second choice when you were choosing an exhaust?
