There are a few Z4Ms out there for sale without the original owners manual. Are these impossible to find? I'm interested in a car but it's missing the manual. It'd be a bummer to search in vain forever.

I suppose that you could try eBay or whatever, but you can also download the manuals from BMW, for cars back to 2004.

They are a little hard to find but def out there. Good luck with your search!

Bought my car and it didn't have any of the manuals/owners cases at all. Purchased them through BMW dealer along with a spare key. BMW has all the manuals and what they don't have here in the U.S. they can order from Germany. Just takes longer. Figured if I'm going to own the car I need the manuals to make it complete.

I think so many are missing, because there's no great place to keep them in the car. When they added a "glove box" they meant a "glove box."

Luckily, mine came with a full set and all keys including the little plastic one. I understand that is rare.

mckenna4978 Did it end up costing a couple of hundred+? It looks like on RealOEM, all of the booklets and case are sold individually.

I have them, don't think I've ever opened them up... I think its supposed to fit in that leather pouch, and stored in the netting on the pax transmission side wall.
I don't even keep them in the car..

That's a good alternative if I can't find a set on eBay or wherever. I think some of the booklets are the same as for the non-M so maybe start with that and then add the M-specific books later.

I'll trade you my Roadster manuals if you come up with Coupe manuals. Only one or two of the books are different. My Coupe didn't come with any manuals or folder.
