E89 Z4GT3 at Staples

Mirko · 12-05-2012, 05:47 PM

Parents saw this and I picked it up. Sadly it is the E89 but it still is cool. It goes for $25+tax at staples. They have it in white and black.

mike519 · 12-05-2012, 05:50 PM

Cool! Will have to go check it out.

Finnegan · 12-05-2012, 07:17 PM

Cool.

Interesting car IRL as they've put a 4.4L V8 in there. (I think it's the stroker and flat plane version of the S65 currently running in the M3.)

gtMc · 12-05-2012, 07:53 PM

thought I read on my recent weekly Roundel email that this bad little puppy is replacing the M3 on the racing circuit, in real life of course.

NICE. ah yes thats posted in a section I rarely check.

Thats it, I am going out and getting myself one of these RC jobs. Even a grown adult never gets tired of chasing the dog around the house with one of these.....

Ran to my local Staples to pick one up this morning. Unfortunately, they had no idea what I was talking about. Can't find it on line either. Would you happen to know the Staples item number?

Thanks, but this link appears to be for a distributor. There is no link to order. Note the "Qty/ctn: 12 pcs." and dimensions for the box and carton sizes for stocking/storage purposes. Note also the reference to how many pieces for 20 ft. and 40 ft. containers.

I still can't find anyone that is selling this in the US. I found a site where I could order one from Hong Kong but shipping for the $25.00 item was $14.80. eBay has sellers in the UK, shipping is $16.80.

I can take a look to see if there are anymore white ones in the staples close to me. You want me to pick one up for you if I find it?

Just kidding

If it was an E86 I'd be all over it.

You can find the E86 on Ebay. This for example: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1-10-BMW-Z...item53eb38daa3 (it's in the UK though)

inTgr8r · 12-07-2012, 10:15 AM

Ill have to drop a hint to Santa.

I'll take a white one if you can still find one. It may be an E89, but this is the car that BMW is running in ALMS next year!

You can buy your very own real one from BMW, complete with an M3 4.4 V8 putting out about 515HP for only €340,000 (plus VAT), just send an e-mail to Z4GT3@bmw-motorsport.com.
