The 3 cars side by side are .
Z4 . I8 roadster. M4 convertible. And the new 8 series had a stand on its own .
The i8 roadster made the others look plain
I was able to get in the z4 leather covered dash but cheap plastic round the gear stick etc .

But to be honest I am on the look out for another Z4 .... and this is what I would love to have

1. 3.0i E85 roadster no older then a 1985 model
2. Any Z4M roadster
3. Any last 35is roadster
4. Last choice a Z3M roaster with the S54 engine

But to be honest all of the above I have owned and sold ... you live and learn :thumbsup:

Does look a bit better in that grey and the new 8 series is a good looking car, but the i8 design is over five years old now and it’s still putting the others to shame.
