New Z4 Owner/New Member
Just bought a 2003 Z4, with 44K miles on it, and picked it up for really less than bluebook.
I was not ready to get an third car but my wife fell in love with it...
It is a joy to drive, and drive hard......
After spending the last 12 years modding my F150, now I can start in a whole new area...
No questions yet, but I will have some. I have already found lots of info on this site.
AND I am ready for lots of comments on what I should do.
Thanks.

Re: New Z4 Owner/New Member
OK,OK,OK
Pictures tomorrow of my Z4 and F150.
Yes, I am a retired Submariner (Chief Fire Control Technician). I did 24 years. I have been retired about four years and work for FTSCLANT (Fleet Technical Support Atlantic) as a Submarine Combat Systems Electrical/Computer Engineer. I AM A GEEK.
But being a geek makes me lots of money.
Had to work today (Sunday). But after I got off, I went driving.... This was the first day since I bought the Z4 that I have had a chance to drive it.
Help, I am becoming addicted.
This car is F*cking GREAT.
Sorry, got carried away.
I am used to driving a 97' F150 that has been modified so that I have 325HP at the rear wheel, but it IS, still, a 4X4.
This Z4 rocks..... ok, I've only had it three days......

...and that smile will never cease The excitement in the hours when you are not in the car will subside a tiny bit after about 2 months of initial enjoyment, but I've had mine since Febuary (also own an F150) and I feel that same excitement still EVERY time I get behind the wheel of the Zed. I can't control myself. I keep telling myself that "I'm going to drive sensibly today", but it never happens

Bubble head to bubble head welcome to the forum.
I spent 4 years 76-80 on SSBN 623B.
I'm sure he will get some pics up soon. At least he knows that there are only one kind of Naval vessel. Boats all the rest are targets.

Ok, here is a not so good pic of the Z and my Truck parked in front of the neighbors house. The sun was going down today....
2003 Z4 and a 1997 F-150 XLT
If you look in the grill of the F150, you can see the HHO generator that produces Hydrogen and Oxygen for ingestion to the engine.
