Congratulations, it really looks fantastic... since I saw pictures of yours I think impatience will drive me crazy before mine is delivered.
Only "negative" comment would be for the wheels. Are you planning to mount the BMW Performance alloys or did you think the 19'' would ruin all comfort? May I suggest you go for the Performance wheels ;-) |

I'm not obsessed by wheels neither, I kept the same alloys on my present car for 4,5 years (i know people changing every 3 months), just found the Performance and the 326M have a sportier look but fortunately everyone has his own preferences.
Anyway your Z4 is gorgeous with the standard wheels and this way we won't have exactly identical cars (I also took black interior)! |

One reason I use manual mode is to avoid too low of RPM in 'D'. I doubt 1300 RPM would hurt the motor but it just feels better dropped a gear or two and 1800+ RPM. Oddly going from D to S drops it from 7th to 4th. I then kick it to 5th or 6th in 'M' mode.

Nice.....
This is the only car I can see trading in my 135i for. Sat in a Z4sdrive3.5i at the dealership last week and this thing just oozes class. I love the interior set-up. Looks like they took some styling cues from the Z8 which is arguably one of the nicest designs ever. I better stop admiring your car now before I talk myself into a trade-in tomorrow. Enjoy!!!!!!

Nice! I also like the steering wheel. I miss the fat grip M steering wheel from my previous M-Roadster.

Looks good I like the Breytons. I wish they made them in a 8/9 or 8.5/9.5 staggered 18" setup, instead of the 7.5/8.5 they currently offer.

Those wheels compliment that color very well. I wouldn't mind having a set for myself. Very nice! I just re-read that they are 19". Thanks for sharing.
