There's a potential solution, assuming of course that the parties can agree on price and you like the 2010 / 2011 Z4.
That's a pretty creative solution Huz! If the 10/11 were similar then it would be a slam dunk. But the N54 engine isn't without a lot of issues (failed high pressure fuel pump after fuel pump) and the thing weighs, if I'm not mistaken, about 500-600 pounds more than the Z4M. Totally different car for a totally different type driver (luxury, comfort, heavy cruiser vs. hardcore sports car). A person who likes the Z4M just isn't going to like a 10/11 Z4 IMO. I could always be wrong though!

I hope I'm not coming off here as an **s for saying that. It really is a creative solution, and if the cars were alike it would be a slam dunk.
