How much would it take to tempt you to sell your Z4MR?

Apologies for yet another post.

Just curious for all those Z4MR owners with low miles and good history how much extra it would take for you to consider parting with your pride and joy?

Recently a number of sub 30k mile Z4MRs have gone for circa £20k (mainly private) but wondered price it would take for any of you to part with yours?

Just curious if there is even a price for some of you.
 
It's one of them cars that's not really replaceable, they don't make cars like that anymore...mines a keeper :thumbsup:
 
Something Italian, manual, convertible and high revving V8 engine….then the little Z4M will have to give up its garage spot.
 
Mines done 104k and I've recently spent out on having the rod bearings done and also put csl reps on it with brand new Michelin ps4s but I guess if somebody waved 12.5k at me I'd sell and put the money towards a e92 m3 v8. I been finding myself liking them more and more recently.
 
Unfortunately unlike my 911 which has jumped up about 7-8k since I got it the Z4M was a bit disappointing.

Mines on 71k pretty rare combo the WBAC was pretty poor and the motorway.co.uk was 2k less than that! WBAC It was 2k less than I payed for it 2 years ago and I got a good deal on it when I bought it too...

To twist my arm I would need 14.5-15.5. The Z4M doesn't seem to have done as well as other cars in the current market.

My dad also has a 2012 21k 991.1 and was offered 10k more than Porsche Kendal 6 months ago... Thats more than he paid for it 4 years ago.

Im sure that selling privately might aid but honestly it looks like the Z4M market is slowing compared to others most of these cars aren't shifting which means they are too expensive.
 
I’m not fully convinced by tomscotts opinion there.

I do agree there are some highly optimistic sellers on the market but sensibly priced ///M’s are shifting.

I suspect the total addressable market for the aspirational 911 owner is always going to be bigger than a niche ///M crew which has created a higher short term pent up demand. However as a consequence I’d also expect that bubble to burst quicker.

Now is the time to sell the Porsche. :poke:
 
I must agree with Tom. In my opinion low mileage coupes etc are worth good money but roadsters like mine which has 104k on it are actually getting to be worth the same as a 3.0si.
Shame as wanted to sell soon but isnt worth me doing so if I was only going to get 10k for it
 
I could be tempted to sell my 26k mile roadster if I could get a nice 5.3m Ribtec RIB as an alternative.

Seriously. I am open to offers on my ruby black, red interior . Gruppe M, RPI back boxes , Storm gear knob and handbrake. AC schnitzel pedals ( all original items available ) It has a full service history and has been used regularly but infrequently as opposed to being left unused for some time.
 
Just because something is scarce doesn't mean it's desirable. Which is one of the key proponents of many "how much is car X going to appreciate" debates.

Z4M also needs a considerable amount of seat time to gel with and it's very sensitive to setup so the current trend of buy it for a few months and flip is not going to favour cars like these. I think the drivetrain factor will make it appealing but can't see them getting to lofty figures of Porsches but in the past 2 decades very few BMW models have to be fair.
