If you could have ANY E89, which one would you get.. and why!?.....same as I've got, but with the stage 3 remap and a decent head unit so I can stream music

You're not asking much
2010 3.0 6 spd manual
The E89 is the best model Z4. It has the sleekest styling, hardtop and convertible top with good comfort and performance.
Likes: The ride on Michelin NRF pilot sports with new Bilstien struts and shocks. The heated seats. The 6 spd manual, And the never dirty Space Gray Metallic paint
Dislikes: The limited iDrive & the missing backup camera (issues soon to be resolved)
I'm happy enough with my choice
