Hi all,
Here two snap shots from my new SpaceGrey Z4 (23i). In the South of France last week.

Stunning photos.

Space Gray was a colour I never much cared for, but the Z4 looks pretty amazing in it.

Wow, this whole thread is fantastic!

Please, more.

Thanks Jason, that's real eye candy: a beautiful Z4 and an M3!

Space Gray looks very nice on the Z4.

Fantastic resolution.

The style 276 19" looks very good, the first time I see them on the Z4. You got some shots of the interior?

My car has now arrived, but I have to wait until the end of this month for my current lease to end, before I can go and take my baby home. But of course I did go and see that everything was as ordered. Photos taken with iPhone and nothing you haven't already seen, but hey she's mine

You'd think that when you order your car de-badged from the factory, BMW/dealership would have the good sense not to put any stickers on the rear window....oh well.

Icecool car!

When I see your car without license-plates I wonder how they will attach them? Would be nice if they could put them on in an Non-destructive way.

Have to talk with BMW again.............

If you zoom into the front bumper you can see 2 tiny holes there. I'm assuming they're for the license plate. That's how it came from the factory.

Yepp, I see them (+400) . I guess it is the same at the rear.

Thanks juhap!
Guess the waiting is even harder when you know it`s there. But then again maby there want be so much snow left in two weeks.

Congrats!

In a way yes, but now when all the snow is melting and mixing with the salt, my E85 looks absolutely horrible. Even the rag top is covered with muck thanks to a bus driver who probably did it on purpose

And I'll be in Seattle for a week just before I get my car, so it's not too bad.

I'm also having an engine heater installed for those few nights when I have to park outside in winter. This time the socket for the power plug will be in the engine bay and not next to the license plate as it is in my E85. Not that it's very visible anyway, but I don't want anything extra sticking out. Hopefully the plug is small enough to fit through the grill, so I won't have to keep the hood open.

Just one more thing you'll have to tell your dealer, if you're having a heater installed

No heater installed. The Z4 is purely for fun so we will not drive it in the wintermonths. But maby would have been smart to install one to get the engine quicklier warm so one could "step on it" earlier.

I gladly take more tips to think about before delivery. My first two-seater.

Congrats juhap! She looks great. Same combo as mine and I have to say, one of the best
