ThanksPaza3 said:Lovely , I almost bought a Carbon Blue one ,around 7 months ago but the time I got the Mrs down to the garage they had sold it!!
Great car enjoy
when I went to look at this one, there was someone in it looking at it! It surprises me when they only do 19 mpg! 
Im just about to do the same sort if swap apart from ill be swapping from a 3.0 ltr to a m3 saloon. Its like when you were a kid and waiting for christmas!
It is a big upgrade from the S54, such a great engine. But yes thirsty! As default everything on ours was set in sport mode... after about 18 months of crap MPG and poor ride I played around with it and you can make it more economical and comfortable on longer runs by turning everything off lol! Maybe 26-28 if your lucky but with everything on 18 if your lucky! But then again thats what its for enjoy!!!
Sadly I've got to wait a couple of weeks I've got a week skiing to get out the way first

Nice car OP
Thanks WoodyWoody said:Wow, just catching up with this...!
You said you lusted after a Coupe Lee, a ZED M COUPE not an M3!!
But I agree, a mighty fine vehicle, a late Christmas present
I know I said I certainly wanted a coupe...but just got carried away! I pick it up on Monday just in the middle of all this lovely weather! I am looking forward to it, I am driving the zed everyday now trying to remember it the best I can
Watch the speed, I test drove a DCT as a possible swop for the Z4MC couldn't realise why the salesguy was so nervous until I realised we were over 100 leptons in a 60 lepton limit and it wasn't even trying.
Problem for me was that there was no drama almost too accomplished compared to the z4 and my previous E46M3, it was also a four door on 18's!

I know what your sayingVvrooomM said:
when I test drove one not long after they were launched the dealer knew I had my 420bhp Cerbera so he wasn't bothered about me putting my foot down & I think we hit 120 on the slip road! Just couldn't stomach the 50k price tag without any options at the time & the mrs said it was exactly the same as the 330d inside which I admit is a big letdown, I also agree with the accomplished side of things, if they did a V8 Zed I would buy one of them instead!
I just adore the engine in the M3 but the fuel bills will hurt :wink:
This weather has annoyed me! I was meant to be picking the M3 up today at 11am but the car is 130 miles away from where I live so I thought it would be sensible not to pick it up.
Moved it to Saturday now so hopefully the weather clears up a little by then...I was really looking forward to collecting it, but think its the best decision
