Now you've got me on the edge of my seat! One of the reasons I bought mine, due to the racing pedigree of the Z4M Coupe..

Nice car, love the cage.

Thats a left hand drive car? have you looked into what it will take to make it right hand drive? have you checked the aus import details for importing/road rego'ing a LHD car thats younger than 15 years?

There are pagers and pages of design criteria to go through for if your making this a RHD car for oz, (basically you won't be going anywhere on the road in that car if you keep it LHD. ) that would make it a track only car, which you'll need to trailer it to the track.

not telling you what to do, but thats pretty much the gist of it, and the other thing, being a ex racing car, does the chassis even have a compliance plate?

anyways, love the cage, and id recon that will make a really sweet track car. Unless of course you know something that i don't, in which case please tell me as i am going through the same s**t atm... :(

Thats a very good question indeed. In most of europe its virtually impossible to get a registration on an ex race car because the lack of certificate of conformity.

But a very interesting build though.
