The Z2? so its like a Z4 but not quite as good as the 4? so like a 3 but they call it the 2 cos theres already a 3? makes about as much sense as that 4x4 saloon hatchback thing BMW make the X6.

Still I wouldnt complain if I had either one in the garage, would prefer the new Z4 tho lool.

Yeah they had Coulthard and Button in the original intros, then when Hamilton started to do well early 2007 they decided to butcher his face into the intro and it shows him like 3 times and its not even a good edit.

I've never driven a 2.5 but Id say go for one with the biggest engine you realistically afford, mechanically I dont think they have too many problems but its probably safer to go for a lower mileage one, for 16k id expect you could get a good spec 3.0 if you're willing to wait for it.

Very nice car Mark, with the right spec and in a colour combination that works surprisingly well.
