Hi. Just wanted to introduce myself to the forum as a new member. :) Im a the new owner of a z4 coupe which i took possession of last Friday. So far so good and its been smiles (almost) all the time. One or two minor niggles but nothing to complain about. The car is remarkably clean and I aim to keep it that way. I also hope to add cruise control to it asap as i anticipate i'll be doing a fair few motor way miles over the next few months. Fingers crossed i manage to diy the install without frying the electrics!

Welcome :thumbsup: . It's a great forum, expensive though! I wasn't planning to change a lot but now I've been on here a while my list is getting bigger by the day.

There's some great advice in the cleaning / detailing section I'd reccomend browsing as well the helpful info in the other sections.

No pictures yet? :poke:

congrats. now get rid and buy a roadster. the car when made was never intended to have a coupe version. so it's not really been built with it in mind. :poke: :fuelfire:

How true. Most of the answers seem to involve cash heavy improvements that just need to be done once someone tells you it can be done !

The coupe was co-developed with the roadster, it was always intended from the start. Hence E85 and E86. BMW just delayed the launch of the coupe, presumably as no-one would buy a roadster if they had seen a coupe first :poke:
