Got a new-to-me Z4: 2016 sDrive 28i

Hey all! Audi guy here but thought the Z4 looked awesome and finally found one I liked. Mint 2016 sDrive 28i with 20.5K miles, Estoril Blue. I’d prefer the 35i but the Estoril Blue is what I wanted and seem kind of hard to find.

Planned changes and maintenance:
Shorty antenna
50% carbon or ceramic tint
Wrap front end in clear bra
CarPlay add on
ASD delete
M sport front brakes
Maybe a tune box... thoughts?
Change salmon relays on hydraulic pump

What oil is everyone using here? Will Mobil 1 5W-30 be sufficient? Any way of using an oil extractor on this guy? I see some N20 engines have an “acoustic foam” under the engine cover but mine doesn’t have this. Is it worth getting? Tips, tricks, or no-no’s? Thanks, pics will be added soon.

GORGEOUS car! I just got an Estoril Blue myself. You are right about them being hard to find. I had to drive 6 hours to get mine, and only got lucky because the dealership had listed it up with stock photos of a black car. I just happened to notice it said blue in the text so I called. ;-)

Congrats on finding your awesome car!

Is yours a 35i? I really did luck out. I'd been low key looking since before COVID. had figured out the color I wanted but thought I'd never find o e close. Was about to take a trip to the with my gf and saw the car listed. Bought it the morning we drove to the coast. It was perfect. Just 30 minutes from home.

Oh Damn! You have the ivory interior. Very jealous. That would have made it perfect.
