New BMW Owner - 2003 Z4

Post by BumpyZ4 » Mon Feb 17, 2020 8:14 pm

Just bought a new to me 2003 Z4 3.0 6 speed with about 90K on the odometer. It drives pretty good and the exterior looks good but the interior needs some attention. Look forward to learning a lot from you guys!

The Kitcar is a Diva Roadster. It's got a LS1 with a 6 speed gearbox and weighs about 1900 lbs. :o

I feel so violated !
It's me ..."The Original Bumpy"
Not even an introduction to the late comer ..Bumpy Z4 ?
Well I guess I can forgive him.
He is from New Orleans and the Forum can always use some Jazz and Creole .
Welcome from Canada.

I'll tread lightly as to not violate any further then you already feel! I did some measurements but I don't think the LS1 will fit!
