E89 V8 Z4M Roadster
Hello Board, I'm Paying you a visit from E86 land. I've been interested quite sometime for an E89 V8 Z4M to come to market. I'm a bit sad to see NA engines go by the wayside in the M models and am a bit skeptical of the DFI and HPFP issues with all of the newer engines. I'm hoping there are enough of the S65 V8's remaining to have a small production run...with a 6-speed of course. Any similar feelings amongst the board?

If i wanted a Z4M, i would get the stage 3 dinan and the get a pro shop to upgrade the suspension, brakes and wheels and maybe some agressive body kit, im sure shops can replicate the Z4GT wide body.

By and large and overall we're all very satisfied with our decision to purchase our e89s. Based on the power and performance right from the factory or via add ons, we are quite satisfied. Very few of us long for an M version, have had little to no HPFP issue, or if so, have had the issue resolved with no reoccurance.

The s65 V-8 might look cool for a minute (I know that F1 inspired engine!), but there are 3 realities concerning the V-8, that even though at one time I yearned for it, I consider a turn off in the Z4.
FWIW Cheers

Did you test drive the car before you bought it? I'd never buy a car whose steering I was not satisfied with "at all".
