Thanks all, this really helps. Like I mentioned, I stupidly sold my S54 Z3MC several years ago and now I can't afford the prices for similar cars at this point as they have increased so much. I was considering an S52 but I'm seduced by the S54 engine. I like the fact that the Z4MC was purposely designed for this engine and the previous generation's shortcomings would have been addressed. Plus a little bit of extra sophistication...but not too much! I pretty much have the funds I would need for a decent example but I'm waiting to secure indoor parking here in the city first. My single car garage has two stacked cars, a 2006 Mini and a 1974 Innocenti Mini.
