Does it mean only half the RHD cars are in UK. I was expecting even more than that. How do we get the numbers.

By using the last 7 digits of the VIN number and http://www.realoem.com/bmw/select.do?vin=Lf78000 it is possible to put a detailed register together. Is it safe to put your VIN info online? I know the Z3M is far rarer but this thread (http://www.zroadster.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9904) made me think about doing it on here. Geeky eh?!

My VIN starts with LG and the last one in this range seems to have been LG19054
 
So that makes 1,055 RHD Z4Ms then (LF78000-LF78999 and LG19000-LG19054).

ECE (RHD): 1,054 produced from 4/06 through 6/08 (Plus 1 pre-production example produced 2/06)

Is it worth starting a register?

If you mean Coupés... LD is RHD Roadster, LE is LHD Roadster...

Love the way the RHD Roadster is the rarest of them all.. 8)

Good FAQ at the register too..

How does the chassis of the E86 M Coupe differ from that of the E85 M Roadster?
Though the vast majority of chassis components are shared between the E86 M Coupe and the E85 M Roadster, the following items do differ: steering ratio ( 14.5:1 in the M Coupe versus 15.4:1 in the M Roadster), rear anti-roll bar thickness (22.5 mm in the M Coupe versus 21.5 mm in the M Roadster) and shock rates (slightly stiffer in the M Coupe than in the M Roadster).

Now that's what I call stats!

Who can tell us where to find similar stats for the RHD coupes? Surely if the LHD info exists, the same should be true for our cars?
