Looking to buy

cheo_7 · 08-17-2011, 08:54 PM

Hi, for quite some time I have been trying to find a 2008 BMW Z4 M Coupe. But there\'s none. I\'m very serious about it, so if you somebody or some way of finding it, please let me know. Of course preferably with low miles and excellent condition.
Thank you

Seems like one of those scams fe Nigeria to me. Next thing you know he/she is going to say one of us just won an off shore lottery.

It's getting tougher all the time to find a decent car, but they are out there.
Any particular options, color etc that you're looking for?

cheo_7 · 08-17-2011, 09:15 PM

The color must be preferably Space gray, Titanium gray or blue, and the interior black with the prem. package

gcochard · 08-17-2011, 09:47 PM

You won't find a titanium gray m, it's gonna be space gray or silver gray...and the 08s only came in space gray.

There were 48 space gray m coupes built for the US/canada market in 2008, 30 in interlagos blue, and 9 in monaco blue. Your black interior with premium package lowers the Space Gray numbers to 28, interlagos blue to 15, and monaco blue to 3...A grand total of 46 cars to choose from.

Good luck.

EDIT: You won't find the premium package under the options, just put cruise control in there, because cruise was only offered as part of the premium package.

Are you only looking for an '08? They are tougher to find but I'm sure one will come along. Not sure how far you're willing to drive but it may be worth it unless you want to wait a bit. I drove halfway cross the country to get mine. Good luck with the hunt.

Being in Puerto Rico, probably also diminishes your chances of finding one. I wonder how many are ever there or if any???

Titanium Silver perhaps?

KevinM · 08-18-2011, 10:03 PM

I was in the market recently. I basically gave up on 2008s as they are rare and (besides being one year newer) are no different mechanically than 2006s/2007s. There are still quite a few low-milage 2007s out there, many still under factory warranty (as mine was, and it only had 9K miles on it).

A board member PM'd me soon after I bought mine as he is going to sell his 2007 Silver Gray M coupe. If you want I'll PM him that you may be interested.

they some M Coupes here, but only about 6 of them in the hole island.

ANUSTART · 08-19-2011, 09:26 AM

You'll probably have to ship one over. Outside of that, leave a note on all 6 to keep you in mind if they sell.
