Hello - newbie 35i Owner Here :-)
- Thread starter The Admiral
- Start date
The rain was terrible for parts of the M5 - pleased to report no leaks! :lol:
The boats were Immense - the car is faster and more economical though :lol:
Thanks m8 
Welcome. Those boats make the Z look tiny!
These boats were even more Immense 8)
Back to the car

Hi and welcome
Great pics mate

Lovely car - welcome. 1500 miles in two days is impressive.
BTW and slightly off topic, does anyone have experience of driving an ///M and a 35i? Is the latter an epic missile of a drive? Just interested - I test drove a 3.0 E89 which I felt a little underwhelmed in but didn't pursue further as I couldn't get my golf clubs in the boot with the roof down - which was prerequisite.

Thanks Folks
Afraid I don't own a boat of my own
Do enjoy using other people's though :lol:
Great fun along the Amalfi Coast to Capri in this one last year:
And off up to Loch Ness and the Caledonain Canal this summer in this one:
Not quite a Superyacht, but it will do

I used to have an M Roadster (Z3M) and the Z4 35i is significantly quicker than that, but not as fast as the 500bhp EVO I just sold - plenty space for golf clubs in that
You can also remap the 35is up to 370bhp/400lbft quite easily, I understand :evil:

Nope... Monaco is where you will find the REALLY expensive ones
I have a done road trip from the Antibes up to the Croatian rivièra and I can tell you that Monaco and Nice are the best places to look for beautiful yachts...
Road trip of 6.500 kms with a finish through Germany with no speed limit

Actually you can remap it over 400bhp... only BMW build quality will tell you when to stop
Over on the e89 forums I recently read a guy that was running 400bhp blew the turbos and the DCT.. out of warranty too.. quite whether that was down to power alone, or existing faults, who knows... I think I'll leave mine stock now I've ready some horror stories... 300bhp is enough (maybe :evil: ).
