Great looking car.... stunning, congrats!
I'm just curious about the ride? My find my normal 3.0 Z4 has a very hard hide...

Thats beautiful man! Wish you many happy miles.

Driving this car through Chapmans peak with the top down must be an absolute pleasure!

I'd say that's the perfect car for the western Cape...

What a beautiful car!

Cannot wait to see it in the flesh at the next event man! Looks supremely clean! raise:

Would love to hear an S54 at full chat with the top down, something I am yet to experience!

Epic shots of a perfect specimen.
Well done Adi.

While I agree that the M3 inspires more confidence leading up to the edge, I can confidently say that all this changes once you drive it beyond this "edge"

Z4 is waaaaay easier and more forgiving than the M3 when driven over its limits. Even though it feels more edgy leading up to them.

So with some extra time on my hands, I can post an update.

Here is the work that I've done. It is actually a joke how little I have needed to do to this car to keep my OCD in check, both cosmetically and mechanically.

I took the car for an early oil service and did coolant and brake fluid at the same time.

The only failure I've had so far as pre-cat O2 sensors, apparently a common Z4 M issue.

The only major cosmetics I've done are replace the gear knob and steering wheel because the rest of the interior was so nice, the factory fresh experience was within reach.

Yesterday I did a full decontamination detail, and then took some pics.

Absolutely impeccable!

Beautiful car you have, I think the Z4M, coupe I'm referring to, offers a more engaging drive than the E46 M3, the steering rack is faster, and the car feels like a go kart which I enjoy. I find the M3's steering to have a little more "play" vs the M coupe , that being said they are two very different machines .... may I ask what that intake set you back

 

[BeemerFanatic]

Oh wow, just when I thought it couldn't get better...

 

[momo1]

Absolutely Stunning!!!
Looks like brand new!
still wish you could've sold me your old steering wheel.

Absolutely stunning
