Check in and say hello!

Hey Guys,

I'm new here but I've been on BFC for probably 10 years now. I've had quite a few bmw's already so I'll feel right at home once I get my new z4 next week.

I'm still looking, I've seen quite a few good places, but I'm still looking, since I'll occasionally share this car with my wife it'll have to be an auto (bummer!) but it'll still be a z4!

I'm looking for an z4 3.0 at around 12-15k

So far I've seen a couple of them (literally, two!) so hopefully I'll join the group pretty pretty soon!

This was my old baby three years ago

Hi,
I just bought a 2008 UK spec Z4M Coupe in Alpine White. Used to have a 325 so this is a step up. Looking forward to getting my hands on it when it's back here in New Zealand with me in April. (Presently shipping from UK).
Look forward to learning more about these great cars on the forum.

Long time lurker, looking to pull the trigger on a Z4M as soon as I find the "right" one. I love quality community sites like this, they can really make a huge difference in regards to the overall ownership experience.

Hey guys!! I just bought my first M car last weekend! It's a 2008 Interlagos Blue Z4 M Coupe. It's my dream car for my current salary bracket lol. Anyways, I'm pumped to join this forum with a proper car and hope I find the same amount of useful information here as I did at the more popular MINI forum (i wont name the web address) when I had my MINI! Glad to be here!

Here's a picture of her when I bought it. Yes its on snow, but I assure you, once I got it home I cleaned it and tucked it away in the garage until the streets dry up!

Nice car! Did you pick this up in Canada, or down south?

I heard it does snow in the USA ....

Welcome to the club!

Thanks! I bought it here in Canada, but it is a US car (bought in Nevada) so its rust free! Love this car!

My first BMW was an E21. Just out of college I couldn't justify paying $12K for a new one, so I bought a used 1979 320i from the dealer for around $10K.

Fast forward about 20 BMWs and some other brands and as a new empty nester, I really wanted to get back to a 2 seater. So I sold the last toy, a fantastic 02 330Ci, for the 08 Z4 3.0si in Stratus Gray Metallic. I thought about something Italian, but decided that this would be easier to park!

Incidentally, in the process of looking, I came across a really nice loaded manual 04 at Choice Auto Brokers, in Ft. Lauderdale. I couldn't drive it because it was at the shop having a window regulator replaced, but it looked great. It sold to someone on ebay, but the salesperson called to let me know that the deal fell through, after I bought the 08. It may be worth checking out for someone in the market.

Hi All,

Just got a 2008 Montego blue Z4 3.0si coupe. I picked this up in Houston last week. It has 22000 miles on it and has the sport package.

This forum has been great for research and really helpful. What a great resource.

Easier to park, and your wallet will thank you! (I have a friend with a Ferrari....) Enjoy! Pics?

Not sure what it's called. Sort of a teal color I guess. But I like it so I guess that's what really matters. Thanks.

My 06 has 14k ... but I feel it won't be long before I am up to your lineage.
