It looked a bit of a basic write-up and from what I could see, they only listed the power outputs of the pre face-lift cars ( well certainly the 3 litre cars).
They can't list everything I guess or else it becomes a book...... :wink: 6 pages is pretty good for a car magazine article these days, Modern Classics magazine take note!

I spent around four hours yesterday with the Editor of BMW Car mag, he drove 3 1/2 hours to my house and back on a Sunday, now that's commitment! They are writing a buyers guide for the Z4 and my car will be featured. He took various static shots as well as some drive by photos; he didn't want any 'dab of oppo' shots but he did receive a demonstration of it's ability to slide (safely), as well as the exhaust valve in operation :driving: :rofl:

The guide will cover all models and I suspect it will be out in a couple of issues time, will let you know when I know more.

Some of the information I have helped provide will also feature here in more detail: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=99203
Nice one! I'll order that on-line (they don't sell it here :x ). Nice car and beautiful house as well, perfect for the shoot. I'm guessing you'll be getting a few copies, it will certainly add value to the car if you ever sell it

I was also about to order that, then noticed I must have purchased an electronic version sometime last year, as I have a PDF of it in my Z4 'archive' on my computer (larger than the regular porn archive of course).
