Potential new owner

Just thought I'd say hi. Currently looking for a Z4 coupe. I'm a long time BMW owner, have had 7 so far, including a Z3. Currently driving a 5 series, and looking for something a bit smaller and more fun while I still can! I'm quite active on a couple of other well known BMW forums (bmw5 and bmwowner) so will certainly be hanging around if/when I find myself a Z4 :)

Hello and welcome. Good luck in your hunt. Why a coupe?
May the force be with you.

As you can probably tell I'm also a Star Wars fan :)

Yes good question, there are quite a few reasons. Firstly, I used to have a Z3 roadster, and although it was lovely with the roof down (all 2 days a year!) it was very noisy with the roof up, and as I do mainly motorway driving, I prefer a more solid feeling and quiet car. Secondly, they are quite rare, only a fraction of Z4s are coupes compared to roadsters, so it should hold its value better (although will cost more to buy of course.) The Z3 M coupe is in fact going up in value now. Also, I just think it looks better, very similar to the Z3 breadvan which in my opinion is one of BMWs best ever looking cars.
 
Welcome! :thumbsup:

Other option might be to buy a roadster with the optional hard top? That way you get the best of both worlds! :wink:

Still probably cheaper than most of the coupes as well.

Whatever you decide, best of luck with it. :)
 
Perhaps an e89? You will have best of both worlds!?

Welcome to the forum and good luck on your Zed hunt.
 
Well after a month or so of looking and pondering, I've finally picked myself up a Z4 coupe :) I bought Nightyard's one, so you will all be familiar with it. Here's a quick photo of it (next to my old car)

I love how the car drives, can't wait to give it another blast on some quiet roads. I bought this as a bit of a 'doer upper' as I enjoy messing around with cars just as much as I do driving them! I think my first job will probably be to sort out the interior which needs some TLC, and then maybe I'll change the wheels as although I like the CSLs I prefer the standard MV2s (let me know if anyone fancies a swap!)

Anyway, will be posting on here much more regularly now :)
 
If they're original CSLs i'll take first dibs if you decide to offload them. Either swap the 224s plus cash, or give me a realistic price for them.

Nice motah! :thumbsup:
 
Welcome Edd

I have also recently purchased a Z4C and really enjoying it. :thumbsup:

Looking forward to seeing any changes you make
