My new Z4, ED+SC delivery

RM-Z4 · 08-24-2010, 03:34 PM

Hi there.

New to the forums, although I have been browsing for a while now.

I picked up my Z4 in Europe during the world cup. Took it from Munich to Salzburg, through Slovenia to Trieste, to Florence, to Portofino, to Nice and Monaco (did a few laps on the F1 street track), to Lyon, to Strasburg, Prague and back to Munich, 14 days on the dot.

Anyways, here are a few pics of the new baby (and proud owner). Currently waiting for SC delivery September 1!

and some more...

RM-Z4 · 08-24-2010, 03:40 PM

and a few more... by the way, the speedometer shows 210 kph. my brother could not get his hand steady enough at 240 kph to take the pic... must have been the coffee

RM-Z4 · 08-24-2010, 03:45 PM

and finally, the end of the trip. Drove from France to Prague with a stop in Stuttgart, nice roads, the Porsche and Audi keeping me company did well at 250kph. (btw, I recommend you visit Prague's bars

). Finally tally, 3750 km!!!

yep, km not miles... too long on the other side of the pond

I think our cars are twins- ivory white interior?

thanks for sharing your ED experience - we did it a year ago and we can't wait until we need another BMW so we can do it again

If this sentence wasn't posted on a bimmer forum this could really be taken the wrong way

Actually, mine is Beige Kansas Leather. I was going to go for the white, but I got affraid it would get too dirty. How is that working for you?

Drjoeb · 08-25-2010, 09:19 AM

Forget the car, talk about the club - looks much more interesting

That color must be an attention whore, sexy red! Looks like you really ventured out in Europe.

cdeslandes · 08-29-2010, 03:34 PM

How did the Z4 do in the infamous hairpin turn at Monaco?

Did amazing at 20mph

Too much traffic when I was there, so I couldn't really do much.
