i really like that, nice colour combo too!  is that the same engine as the e46 m3? if so it will be nice, i burnt £50 of petrol in a day the other week thrashing around in my mates m3 smg, i loved every minute of it and he loved been a passanger too (strange) i also realy loved the smg gearbox on the open road but wasnt such a big fan trying to reverse it onto the drive, i loved it so much im seriously considering parting with the x5 to get a m3/m5, or maybe just adding to the list but i need that engine!! :) :)

Thanks Shadrack, it is the same engine as the e46 m3 & the z4 is a little lighter too, my mate has a e46 m3 & i always enjoyed driving it although it is a manual not the smg.

Your right it is quite thirsty when you are enjoying yourself the fuel soon disappears!  :)

Not normally a fan of the M3 but in white it really works and is for sure one of the best colours for it.

That first pic of the bonnet etc is awesome

Glad to see you got a proper car after the girly Z4

Glad to be able to say that my garage is still faster than your though :)
