New ToY arrived today! 2006 Z4 M

Post by EuropeanBUM » Mon May 14, 2012 4:14 pm

Purchased this from a young lady stationed with the US Air force in Stuttgart Germany. After emailing back and forth for a week, I set up an appointment to fly down there to have the car checked out.
After a 3 hour inspection and an hour drive on the autobahn and stop and go traffic, I was in love!!!!
Paid $2000 less than she was asking for, which was dead on the bluebook value.

Fully loaded 2006 Z4 M
38,000 miles

Future mods:

New Rims
Trunk Storage
Repaint front bumper from scrapes on bottom

Really nice, I do love that colour

PS I always find the pics of our cars amusing (including mine) as there is always one picture where we have ejected our girlfriend/partner from the car so not to ruin the shot - hence them always standing in the background looking pissed off

I let the wife drive it from Germany to Italy and she is a Topgear Nut, She said I now understand how they get excited with a performance car, she loved driving through the tunnels and the sound it made with the top down.
