Zed Colours: Bright Red

[brightonbimmer]

very nice car, and nice wheels

Thanks. I find these wheels very easy to keep clean, which is a constant chore the way the pads shed dust.

I've added a list to your 'car colour' thread: http://www.z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=95204
There's one other 2.5si in 'bright red' as far as I know :wink:

My dad took his z3 up the coast for a weekend away and spotted this red z4 at the hotel. Said it was really tidy and almost as nice as his z! :rofl:

Funnily enough as soon as he sent me the pic it was you I thought of Colin! Knew you'd appreciate it!

My Z4MC is silver gray, but when I was restoring another of my cars, a British one, I looked for the best red I could fine without too much orange to it, and settled on Imola Red!

What is that wspohn? Interesting . . . :?

That is/was a 1956 MGA that someone had fitted a Fiberfab Jamaican body to long before I bought it. I was unable to resist acquiring it as I am an MGA nut (race a Twin Cam and also own a Mk 2 coupe), despite it being in rather poor condition.

When I restored it I ripped out the 1500 MG engine and stuck in a 3.4 GM V6 and T5 trans and basically replaced every mechanical part on the car (including MGB disc brakes). Pic of engine bay below.

The colour was the hardest decision I had to make!

Extra points if you can tell what cars the windows came from - they are sourced from three different cars, two German and one American. With c. 200 bhp and 2,000 lbs. it is fairly peppy - along the lines of a 3,000lb 300 bhp modern BMW.
