I see how it works now. Stick the boring car to the lady, and keep the Z4 to yourself

My only car is my Z4, no longer a DD as I have moved closer to work and can now walk there. Z is now something to enjoy when I'm in it, rather than crawl to and from work with the other 1000's of commuters!

I tried to give the E89 to my wife so I could get something that is better suited for track use and she was... no thanks.. you live with that decision for a few more years

Actually she prefers her SUV, feels safer and has better visibility. I prefer her in the SUV as well as with 19s she is not use to have so little rubber and I have some pretty good rim rash from when she drives it

2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 V8 Overland

We've had her for just over 4 years and she still has less than 60,000 miles on the clock, so just run in for the big V8 ;-)

Upgraded anti-roll / sway bars and a header back Magnaflow system, which sounds really nice.

My daily driver is my Z4, but I have a 2008 Ford Sport Trac to use when the weather is not so good here in the Northeast. I will be also be adding a Jaguar F-Type in the Spring. I have never been so taken by a car since I started buying Bmw's back in '98 when I got my Z3.

The 2010 Z4 35i is a keeper.

I test drove the v8 F-type a few weeks back and it was awesome. Along with the E89, the F-type is one of the most beautiful cars that I have seen.

Z4 for Hong Kong driving
Infiniti FX37 for driving in China (replaced the murano)
Nissan Murano for the groceries and dog activities (recently retired from china driving)
Z3 M-roadster for winter top down cruising (currently in hibernation, too hot)

Wife likes to take the z4 because of the size. I enjoy driving the MZ3 the most when its not hot.


BTW Hiltonfa really nice Z3.
