Potential new E89 owner

Post by craigdm » Sat Jul 24, 2021 10:45 pm

I have made use of this forum a few years ago when I ran a 3.0si. Looking at the prices I should have kept hold of it, but I diverted away through a RCZ-SLK-XE-AClass route before finally coming to me senses!
We have an EV as a main car and I quite fancy another Z4 while they're still allowed.

I was hoping some of the experts could fill me in on the things to watch out for. I know I could do a search, but it's very difficult to sort the ordinary issues from the one offs.

I'm surprised that roof issues still seem to be prevalent, I had the motor replaced on my 3.0si bit I'd hoped that the newer model would have sorted that. Certainly don't have any issues on the SLK/CLC.
Also saw a few references to a boot mod. What is this, and why is it important??
Z3 rare 2L Straight 6. Should have kept it!
E85 3.0Si sold back in 2014. Should have kept it!
E89 20i just arrived 2021
