Looks a nice car, my first Z4MC was white, think they look great!

😭 does anyone fancy a group buy??
I’m in the market for something special and I’d love a white M coupe but that’s too much for me to tie up in a garage.

Is it the angle or does the front bumper look misaligned to the bonnet???
 
Not for me thanks.

If I was after a low mileage MC I'd rather have this one:- https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202503180283401?sort=relevance&searchId=6a7fdc0e-35fa-4581-8b23-13193a2481a6&advertising-location=at_cars&body-type=Coupe&make=BMW&model=Z4%20M&page=1&postcode=WV5%207BY&year-to=2025&fromsra

I don't really like black, but I like white even less!

What's wrong with a colour? Imola Red or Interlagos Blue, ideally with Light Sepang leather would be ideal. :D

That reminds me of my old Roadster in that colour combo. 8)

No cruise or heated seats in that one though. I could live without cruise I think, but I do like bum warmers though to be honest, and they are the first option that I look for in a car generally.

Really? We're completely the opposite. You just need more, erm, insulation :)

Never use the hot seats in the M, but really miss cruise control. Especially in the bloody Welsh 20 limits.
 
One thing with the ZM. You really don’t need any extras as the car is what’s special. Audio - basic will do as the engine is the music. Parking sensors - use the wife. Satnav - easier to use Waze on a iPhone. Heated seats - in a coupe? Come on! Cruise - it’s a sports car! And what’s with the 20 limit. I try and make scowlly faces on the displays whenever I can. All the stuff that is essential is already on the car
 
I do roll my eyes when people complain about lack of CarPlay integration or soft-touch plastics on a driver's car. But imo a Z4M is more GT than sports, and cruise and bum warmers do make a long road trip (which is my primary use case for this car) more pleasant.

My perception is that it's a sports car with added comfort, not a GT with added sportiness.
 
Definitely room for differences of opinion on this one, but imo an E85/6 is too blunt an instrument to be considered truly sports, although it is fun to hustle and gets better the harder you push it. An E89 is a boat :)

Definitely room for differences of opinion on this one - and it is really nothing more than an argument about definitions - but imo an E85/6 is too small to be consider a GT, although it is comfortable to cruise long distances in.

:D
 
I've got the Caterham to do the sports car job, so I'm happy that the 370Z has heated and cooled seats to be honest. :D

I do appreciate my mod cons I can't lie, and I've never been a fan of poverty spec cars in fairness. My Z4M didn't have nav granted, but I did have the top of the range stereo, cruise and heated seats though to be fair.
 
I definitely think of my MC as a Sports Car, even if it did come with quite a few non-essential options - but then the first keeper was BMW UK and they do tend to load the spec up.

It isn't really big enough to be a GT. GT to me means things like 6 Series, SL Mercs, XK Jags and most Aston Martins, etc.

Yes Mr Tidy and I agree with that too.

I see my 370Z as a GT to be fair, and the Z4M is definitely much more of a sports car in comparison for me.

My 370Z even has GT in it's model description too, and it is a 370Z GT Roadster for example.

100% - central locking, air-con, electric windows and a roof are a must.

Not having a roof doesn't bother me now. :D

However years ago I was definitely more of a Coupe man though in comparison. 8)

I also grumble if I get a loan car that doesn't have comfort access now for example, and I have to use the key fob to unlock it, because the GLE/M4/370Z all have comfort access for example.

I'm spoilt and lazy in my old age it seems I reckon! :lol:
