Hi there,

I have been driving my e89 28i for the last few years but never thought about joining any forum or community until now. I've joined some spanish BMW forums, but it's always to keep eyes overseas as this forum seems to be more active than others.

Although I travel often for work, I doubt I can make it for any meeting. I am mainly interested in info about coding, reprograming and playing with electronics in car and PC/phone as my background is electronics engineering and I work motorsport freelancing.

Attached a photo of the car leaving dealer last year, I don't normally take photos of my car. Car is pretty standard looking and not planning on any massive changes.

I'll be in my E85 for the annual Spain/Portugal trip this year. The best driving roads in the world are in Asturias, Cantabria, Castile and Leon :thumbsup:

Asturias is top for driving, especially for spring/summer rain days. All of a sudden you find incredible forests passed through the road, or driving on the side of a cliff... Incredible. And food is great as well. I'm originally born and raised there in the rainy north but live currently in Valencia. I used to follow rally stages in the north so I know the roads pretty well, if you need advise, just drop a line :)

Enjoy twiddling…the N20 powered cars are tougher nuts to crack as there is not as much third party support for that combo..

Still more than enough the play with :thumbsup:
We choose to go to on with this endeavour at this time and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…

Hello from a fellow Z4 owner in Spain, I am near Malaga. The E89 does look good in both white and black. :D
