Garage List
  • When you have a flat on your RFT and have to wait 2 days in some little town for a replacement in a run of the mill motel
Speaking from experience ....
  • I always gave Z8's Z3's and Z4's the when I saw them driving my then e46 M3
  • When Motorcycles (lot's of them) around Mount Rushmore gave me the during my cross country trip driving my then sDrive Z4 35i during the Summer of 2010.
Now that I drive a e92 M3 I still give a Zx the

It's just a real fun car ... and one of the sexiest cars designed in and out by two fine ladies

That's fine when ppl hang around the car to check it out, take pix, whatever, but why the HELL do they have to TOUCH it!!! ARggh, I can't stand that. One time I was in the car and this old lady was walking by and used it as a crutch, as if she was about to lose balance (not), just used it as something to lean on...wtf...

-You know you drive a Z4 when most brick and mortar car parts places don't have accessories specific to your car.

-You know you drive a Z4 when a new model cellphone comes out and it's a year before the cradle is released, just in time for yet another new model cellphone.

-You know you drive a Z4 when you Google "2013 Z4 review" and there are never any new reviews other than the 3 or 4 you already read, but you Google almost any other car, and there are pages and pages of reviews.

-You know you drive a Z4 when you feel like a red headed step child in your own BMW dealership.

When you usually take the train to Manhattan for work and find excuses to drive in on a sunny day, even if it means go early and leave late.

I would have never guessed that, but it makes sense. I suppose practicality is pretty low on the "shit to think about" list when there's that much money running around town.

The Z4, designed by chicks, appreciated by both chicks and men alike! The M3, to the untrained female eye, looks like every other 3 series with a "kewl hood and lots of exhaust pipes". It's sad that they don't know what a monster it is...
