Hard to Believe it's been 8 Years

And I still think it's one of the best looking production cars ever. Even in my parking garage she just stands out among my neighbors' Range Rover, 911, and Tesla. But even with a modest 255hp the car puts a huge smile on my face.

Photos taken with my shaky hands using my iPhone lol.

Not much else has come along with the same attributes.

Beautiful car!

I had just stepped into the garage for a moment of peace and to rest my eyes on my Coupe...

May I ask for details on the dark-colored roof? Is that a tinted plexiglass (or something) item that a forum member was working on a while ago?

Oh it was a special option for 07 n52's.... lol

Went back and forth about painting because gloss wraps scratch so easily and I didn't like carbon fiber or matte so my tint guy came up with a brilliant solution:

If you like a dark colored roof, just trade in for a roadster

Beautiful coupe though

Thanks everyone, she's currently sitting on her winter (storage wheels) but the 197's are one of my favorite oem wheels along with 313's and 437's.

Love it

Timeless beauty, and that red 12 o'clock stripe sure doesn't look out of place neither

Very, very nice. :-)

Man, I do this all the time, when just the door behind me turns into a mad house, I gather my thoughts and then return to the Frey, my mind at ease, still images of that car going through my mind..

How is the double wrapped roof holding up after 2.5 years? Do you just wash it or do you also clay/wax the wrap? Looks great. I didn't realize you were in NJ since your Location says Westchester. I'm in NJ often visiting family and I lived there the first 18 years of my life, but I've never seen a Z3/Z4 in all the time I've spent down there.

Moved to Westchester last year but I'm in Bergen all the time. It looks just as good as day 1. You can see 1 or 2 scratches on the top layer of the clear film which just means it's doing its job.

Congrats and agree! I'll probably have a few new BMWs come and go, but my E86 and E39 will stay. The E86 for its ability to attract attention and the the E39 for its ability not to.

So nice! Even the concrete floor looks good in that second pic!
I know what you mean, the other day a Porsche Panamera parked next to me and it just looked fat n bloated next to the Zed.
