I've been reading a lot of good things about the Yokohama ADVAN Neova. Anyone have any experience with these?

I'm here too, never post, just lurk, but at least i've been a member for more than a month. :) I had to laugh at myself. I asked someone if those of us from the USA were welcome, was told to come over and register only to find my username taken. Seems I had registered and forgotten. Still lurk tho....

I wonder which navigation tool it uses. Since the car is produced in the U.S., I suspect that it uses NavTeq which is best for NA (that's why we love Garmin and Magellan over here). TeleAtlas is supposed to have better mapping for Europe (which is what TomTom uses), and that's why you guys all love ...

You can get a space saver tire and/or cover from roadstersolutions. Several of the Z4um members have them.

Basic advice is don't mix tyres. F1s are a good all round choice are also OK for more extreme 'work', I ran them on my CSL for a couple of track days and they were OK. Re Falkens, I know that some people run them on here and find them to be perfectly acceptable. I do believe however in the old adag...

Sorry in advance if our NA models differ from your European models in this way but... In our Z4's, there is a keyhole in the end of the dashboard (you have to open your passenger door to see it). That's where you insert your key and turn to disable the passenger airbag. Then your passenger airbag in...

Beautiful car. I wonder why they call it, "Montreal Blue"? I've been to Montreal a few times, and I'm not sure where that colour originates from. Now if it was called, "Quebec is superior to the rest of Canada and Montreal is the only classy city Blue", then that would make sense...

One Z8 is not enough to chase a Z4, so I need a second one that I can corner the Z4... :wink:
I'm pretty sure your Z8, towing your other Z8, would still catch up to my Z4 and leave me in the dust! :)

The Z4 M Roadsters & Coupes come with a BMW mobility kit (essentially a air compressor & a can of goo to spray into your punctured tire). The regular Z4's come with runflats, but several people have switched to non-runflats and simply carry an air compressor and a can of goo in their trunk (...

I think using a self-serve car wash bay is fine as long as you do two things: 1) polish, wax, and seal your paint at least every 6 months 2) Do NOT dry off your Zed afterwards with towels, etc. since you didn't actually wash all the dirt off, just rinsed most of it off. So there's a bunch of micropa...
