I've just picked up an 05 z4 from a local dealer after completely falling in love with it this weekend.

Just over 50k on the clock, immaculate outside and in and performance wise is spot on!

What recommendations/tips/tricks would people have for me as a first time z4 owner?

Cheers!

Welcome to the forum, I love the colour of your car. Is your car standard or have any mods been done? :thumbsup:
