As in which Zs were in which order or when & how long owned for ? :? my sig link below shows the order ive bought & owned
When and how long please.
don't keep a diary 
longest have been the first E86 almost a year then each of the 2 ZMRs approx 10 months .The others have ranged from 3 - 6 months & at times ive ran 1 whilst another Z was on SORN .
Some may see the switch & change as negative , i don't :? i get a lot of enjoyment from searching , finding , buying , sorting , selling & of course driving
appreciate my style may not suit all but works for me Dave1971 said:mr wilks said:Dave1971 said:

The wife said you are clearly a man of good taste but I think she's talking about the wine.

July 2012 black , 89K E86 auto , sale was enforced due to needing the money to finish a renovation project , hence why i returned soon as i could with minimal investment in a 2.5se
Fast turning into a 35i "modded" thread a busy week discovered the original battery was not holding charge so new AGM one ordered .
Midweek the custom backbox tips were done , Thursday private plate was switched , Friday black grills fitted ( though i think the silver ones edge it for me :? ) & new Veemann alloys / Michelin 255 35 19 - 235 35 19

so my thinking there is the enhanced moulding around the tailpipe outlets will suit my new tips better ?

You need the full gloss black grills without the chrome outer!
Was it a Valencia Orange rear diffuser by any chance!?

Honestly drove like a different car , fit them late last night , still dark when i was up & out this morning
90mins on my usual roads & its a transformation for sure , the Michelin tyres against the Bridgestone runflats will play a big part but in general it felt more positive & dare i say for a E89 " nimble " anyone who is running their E89 on 19inch runflats really should give serious consideration to a tyre switch , they really are appalling & the few hundred or so miles ive covered with the runflats have been sketchy , unnerving & unpleasant to say the least there is no way on earth a flagship 300+bhp sports car should ever have left the factory on them :thumbsdown:
