Anyone else there with a car configured like mine, BMW won't tell me :(
I was wondering how many other folks have a Z4 configured like mine. It was a special order car. I check the classifieds regularly both in the US and Europe but have yet to come across a car with my configuration. I contacted BMW about this, just asking how many cars were built like this one. They said they don't release that sort of information.
So if anyone else has a car like this it would be nice to hear from you....or of you
Frankly, I've yet to find another car with (1) crimson paint, (2) twin turbo six cylinder engine, (3) six speed manual gearbox and (4) extended Ivory Leather interior.
My car is configured as follows: Any one else out there with a twin to this car?
1. Crimson red (not metallic Melbourne red)
2. Exclusive Ivory White Leather (extended to upper section of the dash)
3. Full leather (leather on top of dash, top of door panels, etc)
4. Twin Turbo Six cylinder Sdrive35i (N54 motor)
5. Manual six speed transmission
6. Anthracite wood trim
7. Performance Package (Adaptive M Suspension and increased top speed)
8. Premium Package
9. Cold Weather package
10. Navigation
11. 19" wheels.

Sorry. Here are some pics. The door panels have a combination of white leather and suede.

That looks like Melbourne Red - beautifully detailed, but Melbourne Red nonetheless.

A very good spec, but nothing exceptional. Except, it looks as if the car has a cup holder!!!Valor1 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 03, 2017 3:18 am .....

The "suede" is 'Alcantara', an expensive cloth, originally developed in Japan.

Unfortunately though, your car isn't Melbourne Red, so you can't join Busterboo's mysterious sect....

Busterboo you really think I don't know the color of my own car? Pretty easy to tell the difference between red and a metallic red/orange....aside from the fact BMW provided me with my car's build sheet that clearly shows A61 Crimson red.
As for nothing exceptional, i.e., an exception, that's the entire point. For nearly two years I've checked cars.com, Ebay and Mobile.de and autoscout24.eu and never came across a manual six speed, twin turbo N54, crimson red with exclusive ivory white leather (not to mention all the other packages). Thus, by definition the car is "exceptional." But BMW refuses to release information regarding production of numbers of cars, e.g., by color. So......I figured I'd seek out the information here and see if anyone else has a car spec'd like mine

I can see this thread going south with that slightly sensitive reply. Perhaps the colour names differ to the ones used in the UK? In any event as this forum is 98% UK you won't get market representative feedback.
Cup holder is LHD only.
