Sold my Z and bought an M

Post by Gixerthou »

Sold the Z last Saturday and collected this Sunday, did toy with getting a Z3M but this won my heart. 89000 miles full BMW service history and ita a rocket :twisted: Smg gear box is great.

It is a lovely thing. The flappy paddle gearbox is awesome.

I heard the insurance on a M3 is twice that of a Z3M ???

Great looking car and in Imola :D

the e46 m3 is lovely. the new cars are cold and clinical.

no soul.

new bmw cars, you don't get close too emotionally.

The z3m is the only car I'm in love with (and I've had a few)

every drive is an emotional event, and no new car can emulate it (sorry titan)

E46 ///M3 in the Imola...mmm....lovely -- although interior could do with a vacuum and dusting. :lol:

I've toyed with the idea of getting one myself, but never found one in the condition I'd want it. :roll:

Best of luck with the new car. :D

CSL alloys look superb.

Your insurance is more than my modified 911 turbo though!

Yep. I had a big power Impreza that was cheaper with an agreed value of £18000. CSLs are lovely. Lowered on Tein springs as well :twisted:

Can't quite work out how you get the roof off though... :puzzle:

Has your insurance rocketed with all those mods?
