Chris,

I'm new here, myself. That's quite a posse of fine automobiles you have. I see you are in Charlotte. I live near Lake Wylie. I hope you enjoy your coupe.

Hi Salty,

Z4 coupe in the Family

Hello everybody,


New to my garage is my 2007 Z4 Coupe 3.0si

Reasonably highly optioned from the factory with
M Sport suspension
Coil on plus setup
Memory electric deats
Automatic Air Con
6CD Changer
Hdd Navigation (japanese unfortunately)
Cruise Control
Xenon lights
Park Distance Control
Seat heating
Auto Dim mirrors
tv function
Velour mats
multifunction steering
"smokers" package
etc


The car has about 50,000 km and looks like new.
The only negative I can find is an annoying dash rattle which sounds like loose plastic parts.
Edit: Rattle discovered and eliminated! was the red (sensor?) that hangs below the rearview mirror. I removed the mirror, packed the gap with common cotton thread and applied PVA glue to the last few winds. Easily reversible and completely stopped the rattling.

Nope, are real carbon . Look to be factory originals (though I can't be sure)

EDIT: just checked the VIN and it states "Exterior mirror package", looks like a Carbon Fibre clamshell over the body of the mirror. Extremely Tidy.

Must be a Euro option.

Take z4 delivery on Saturday

I just bought my first BMW-2003 z4. I *hope* to love it-as many of you do! It is Urban Green, which seems to be a love/hate color but is rare if nothing else. Already considering a matching hardtop (I live in MT) but I'll likely be posting as I complete basic mods (Exhaust, intake, engine mapping?). Probably won't to anything too outlandish to this one. Cheers!

TainoBlanco new to ZPOST

Hello everyone, I am glad to have found this group! I Just purchased a used 2007 Z4 Coupe from a local Nissan dealer. It has a few miles on it (80K) and some minor wear but all-in-all looks nice. I took it to the BMW service center and was happy with the results of its front to rear inspection. Once I get a bit more familiar with this site tools I will post a pic of the car. Cheers and Beers Thanks & Happy Holidays!
