Nope, that bottom line on the door is actually curved, from about 1" at the front, dipping down and then back up to 2" at the rear of the door.

I think it looks quite nice, just a shame it's grown into more of an SLK than a z4m. Oh well, i'm proud to (hopefully) own the last great M car. Especially in light of the frankly ridiculous X5M and X6M. I hope they retire the CSL badge forever and make our cars into cult classics of exceptional value and asset like apreciation ( 8)

I've told my wife that the car will go up in value and i need to be right at least once in our relationship!
2007 z4mc carbon black - gone but not forgotten. The guy I sold to still has it, maybe one day I will buy it back.
Now - Maserati Gransport with many mods. Sounds incredible.

If the UK government has it's way, M cars and the like will be run off the roads! :(

I saw a silver one yesterday around the Reading area, looks not bad but not as nice as the older Z4, IMO quite similar to a 6 series :wink:
