yeah was was aware of your jibe and the what you meant by it, friendly banter!!! i also was having a laugh
id actually really like an is for my DD, i cant lie my dealer has a 1M and with my modding talents i feel i could make a belter of a car.... but my god id need to start again, brakes,suspension, power upgrades, probably new turbos or a single turbo, uprated oil and intercoolers, id keep the wheels and add PSS with slightly wider tyres, At least -2. neg camber as bmws have horrible camber shift on hard driving which causes outside shoulder wear....... i just Love the sound of a boosted s54... proper exotic, but the lure of the 1m is undeniable.......
my z4m is imo becoming close to motoring perfection........ im building my expression of the ulitmate bmw. I smile EVERY single time i pop into the garage or go for a drive.....
lol @ Modding talents! Calm down! You've bolted some big brakes on and fitted a leaky supercharger!
The rule of thumb is, if you mod a car you make it go faster, but make it ultimately less drivable day-to-day. NOT everyone wants a bone shaking ride with at least -2 camber!
The Z4 is far from motoring perfection. The damping is crap, the throttle response is poor or overly sharp. It's a 'good' car but I'd sooner have a stock 1M than a mod'd Z4M!

lol it was alight hearted comment...... what the hell?? was that really neccessary?? its a JOKEEEE!!!!! its alight hearted comment, didnt you get that??? or didnt that come across???
you have to be the most negative person on a forum ive ever come across, every comment to come across from yourself is nothing but moan moan or finding a fault with something, its called light hearted comment,,,,,, do you not understand lighthearted ali, anyone can bolt on some parts no Fs sake, with the crap thats currently going on in my life with a very sick little one im just trying to lighten the mood and ive got complete twats like yourself just gunning to find an issue with something ,
now if you get to the end of my post and see MY idea of a good car, simple MY idea, now whereas the supercharger yeah its leaky but all ive done is be honest and post up ALL the good and bad issues for other people that wish to go that route.........the only use for you may be to be turned upside down and used as a toilet brush in a diarreah clinic......... the shite around the bowl will match the shite you spout generally
Doesnt your french luke warm hatch have KW coilovers? You know, you cant polish a turd matey
You say youd rather have a stock 1m over a modded z4m, cool thats fine, knowone asked that question, youve come along with your underhand comments and tried to be an ass
i agree with some of your comments on the z4m its a Average to good car stock...... a good few choice mods can Really make it a great car, you seem so down on the z4m and yet your on this forum?? my dates are coming up soon for the curborough day id like to organise for the forum, please please please bring yourself along, your one guy id love to meet

Sometimes u just gotta bite
Easy big boy!The essay response really wasn't required, but amusing. In summary:
1/ You consider that everything you own is vastly superior to everyone else.
2/ Your opinion of tuning differs to that of the next person.
3/ If you are intent on posting abuse, at least do it with some valour and don't put smileys...
This is a public forum, there will be differing opinions!
I won't challenge you're comments over the Clio...Your view Vs. the next.
1 parting thought, why not organise a track day on a proper track!

1) probably.........
2) probably.........
3) boring............
4) curborough is local, been a member for 10+ years and i can get the keys cheeply for a low price for forum members..... It wasnt about the track, more to meet the members and have a good day
parting thought for you also............ these forum are ALL about differing opinions i agree, the way you air those opinions is very important
No more arguments,please.... my E89 35i blows the doors off every 35iS made and most M's....the extra 80 hp that I have all the time is qute a handful some days, but I love it.....and I drive my 245 hp Z3 every day now, its so much fun to snap it around a corner it makes me warm and fuzzy all over (oops, too much info 
).
Beedub, I'd love to try a 540 hp roadster some day, you got one ?

Mines only got 500 :-(
New dyno next week with race gas
and data logging, watch this space.....Back to topic....
Interesting to see which would be quickest in a straight line off the start.
S-Drive 35is 1600kg and 340hp
Z4MR/Coupe 1485/1495kg and 343hp (338bhp)
I think the M would have the edge, plus it would sound soooo much nicer !
BUT....when it comes to in-gear, "real world" usable power I don't think an M can live with that turbo torque in the 35iS, despite the weight advantage.
