New to Me Z4MC

Well, made the jump to a Z4MC. Its an 07 with 47.5k. Looking to make it a daily/track car. Said goodbye to the E93 below.



And Hello to my new toy.



Only mods so far are the stubby antenna and H & R springs. Lots of plans though.

Most people have gone the other way (and regret it). I think you made the best move

Welcome and congrats!

Curious to ask/know what prompted the move from the M3 to the Z4MC?

Thanks for the kind words.

Gonna post some picks when the new rims arrive. The AG M310's offset I had on the M3 are et15, so I just had to get et35 to fit. Rears seem to be ok.

Made the switch because I now have a work car. So no longer need a car to pull dual duty fun and transport, which by the way there probably is no better car than the M3.

But I have no doubts the M coupe will be a more fun track car.

Nice find! Totally agree on the M3--nothing better that fits both work and play roles--but for a pure "play" role the Z4M is the way to go.

Enjoy! And welcome!

I was looking at this car, great buy! Curious about what part of SFL you live? I'll be getting into a z4mc soon as well.

Welcome and congrats.
You know life is good when you get to jump from one awesome purpose built machine to another awesome purpose built machine.

I agree that the M3 is probably the the best double duty machine.

Thanks. I'm in the ft lauderdale area. Centrally located between PBIR and Homestead. Can't wait to get to the track. Have talked to a local shop about installing recaro sportster cs seats with four point harness. Pricey, but the leather on my seats is a bit worn. Anyone use these?
