Great choice!
Why did you choose this one and not the other one? Also you need to buy a stubby antenna quickly Stubby antenna was my first mod.. i actually bought one before collecting the car... and swapped it right after handoff... before even driving it off the lot.

The 35is was more optioned out, and I loved the 326m wheels and how much more aggressive the 35is looked over the 35i. It also had 20k miles less and the engine seems like it was never touched. All the OEM parts are still installed which makes this even more of an exciting build. MORE to come! |

What? You like that comically long original antenna? For me it makes it look like a remote controlled toy rc car. Had to get rid of it right away This has to be one of the last cars sold to have such external antenna...

The ‘whippy’ is an iconic part of the look of all Zeds…it’s like taking the BMW badge off the boot, bonnet and wings..
The fact that it has little functional contribution to radio performance is irrelevant. A stubby goes along with c/f exhaust tips, side sill extensions, front splitters, over cambered wheels etc etc !- In English parlance it’s ‘naff’…!-

Im not a big fan of exterior modifications either. My car is almost entirely original.. apart from a few performance mods and that smaller antenna I like what the designers did with this car and i like keeping it that way.. That antenna was the only thing that i wasnt fond of on the Z. At least changing it isnt irreversible and i can always unscrew the stubby one and put original back on. Takes just a few seconds. i keep the original safely on a shelf and if i ever happen to sell the car ill surely give it to the next owner so they can decide what looks better for themselves. But i do have to say i had no idea people considered that antenna to be part of bmw roadster lineup heritage. That is interesting.
