Official Black Sapphire Thread

Nice - looks wicked with the tint.

So my brother and I went for a drive to take some pics of the lunar eclipse tonight. My camera sucks so none of the moon shots came out... Actually none of the pictures were good.

This was the only one with decent lighting. I think I'm too late for the August photo competition though.

I need to get myself a SLR and take better pics in the future.

Dammmittt · 08-28-2007, 10:01 AM

Beautiful shot Carlo. That looks sick!

Do it! Graphite grill was made for the black exterior.

I have only had the M for about a month so lots of things still in store:

BimmerZealot · 11-25-2007, 11:25 PM

Graphite grill? That looks like black to me, my 3.0Si has more of a graphite (grey/silver) grill

Dirfm01 · 11-26-2007, 11:07 AM

Quick shot of mine...a little dirty, but it was meant to be driven!

FloridaBoy · 11-26-2007, 11:54 AM

My Halloween/Thanksgiving shot...

rufus · 11-28-2007, 05:43 PM

Thank you! I have put alot into it that is not seen...took me awhile to warm up to the wheels, but I chose them because of the weight and the monoblock construction. 18 pounds per rim is hard to ignore if looking towards weight reduction!

Looks very familar !!!

epbrown · 12-02-2007, 02:20 AM

So many people are going CSL/ZCP that the stock rims seem aftermarket at times.

epbrown · 12-03-2007, 10:00 AM

Here are some nice wheels! I saw this car on another forum:

Carlo · 12-06-2007, 03:40 PM

got a new camera for my bday, took some pics to test it out... gotta learn how to use it

epbrown · 12-11-2007, 02:12 PM

Well, Im on the road home with my Z4 and stopped off for some McNuggets. Thanks to McDonald's wi-fi, you guy's can see my new Z4MC within my first 100 miles of ownership! And a quick thanks to everyone on the forum! Why? Reading all the threads here has made the transition a piece of cake - I'm an old hand on my first day!:

fantasticz4 · 12-11-2007, 02:40 PM

No question about it a black Z4 is ridiculous HOT
