Z4m coupe

I finally drove a 2007 m coupe today . It had 30,000 on the clock and looked new. Owner stated there were some dings but he had them fixed. I saw I bit of overspray on the pass door.
I was surprised at how tame it was cruising on the freeway, but it really gets it on 7/10-8/10.
The exhaust was stock and was fairly quiet, even under hard acceleration.
But my 993 has the fister stage III's, sounds like a 930 on decel.
Steering is totally different of course, but turn-in on the m coupe was terrific.
The suspension was stiffer than expected. I couldn't imagine putting on H&R coil overs . Pss10's maybe, a little less bouncy cruising and stiffer under hard cornering.
Engine sounds are awesome. Different from a flat 6 but tachs almost 1000 rpms higher....GT3 territory.
Cockpit orientation is very different, almost on rear axle, which explains slightly bouncy ride.
But I loved the car, I'm trying to decide if I should pull the trigger.
He's asking 35,000. Black sapphire black interior. No sat/nav
It's one or the other, can't have both. I think his price is a little high.
Thanks
