The Z3M has arrived!!!

[Falkster]

Well I finally took delivery of my new (wifes new) car. I told the wife that I would have to 'see what it behaves like' before she is allowed to drive it!!!

Ive got to say 'f**k me'. The car is unreal, its very quick in 4th at 40 then you peg it down 2 gears and its like a missile! Given it some real pasty to see when it loses traction and the grip is immense. Only time it spun was pulling out of a petrol station and it struggled for grip for a split second and then it was off!!

Nothing negative to say about the cars performance, its just fantastic. Took me a while to work out the electric hood but after keeping my foot on the brake pedal, showing my left nipple and starting the roof of with my hand its fully working.

Only negative total about the car is I cant believe people dont look after cars as well as they should. Dont get me wrong the car is mint but it hasnt seen polish for a while and theres a couple of tiny scratches that will take 10 mins to get rid of.

Anyway I will get some pics up once Ive given it a good going over.

[Ziggy]

I wanna see the pics - preferably of it sideways!

Sounds good... you'll be able to get to all your home hairdessing appointments nice and quick.

As I said before its my wifes car but I would be driving it the odd time BUT will have the roof up. I only tried the roof to make sure it worked.

Nice one mate, Good luck with it am sure it will bring you lots of weekend fun!

[munky30]

Yeah yeah we believe you... It had nothing to do with letting your long flowing manicured locks blow freely in the wind.

[Falkster]

Long hair!!! I only wish!!

Falkster,

I had one, actually two as after borrowing the first one to a friend he totalled her after 10min driving...

All I can tell you is the best money spent one that car was the rear adjustable spring and perch from Ground Control (the rear is too high, "unloaded" and without the necessary camber and the extra spring rate makes it handle better) but most of all it was the Rear Strut from Strong Strut!!! I'd say is a MUST have it will transform the car and make the car go from edgy to a controlable beast. I can't emphasyse enough the advents of these two gadgets. I even "discovered" a better fitting technique to get some extra clearance, contact me on this if you buy it.

[Falkster]

Thanks for that mate, where do I get these things from?? I know where to get most things E30 M3 but have looked around and have no idea where to find anything Z3M

[Francisco]

Would I be allowed on there having a roadster??

[M5pilot]

I have an M5 and I'm on there! I have been to their events with them. Really nice bunch of guys on there.

Just be aware, once your on there your going to get alot of ideas and your wallet is eventually going to take a very big bashing with the kind of things they do and you will be very tempted!

KW variant 3's, BBS LM's, Carbon Intakes, Remaps, Schrick Cams........

[Falkster]

Ive already seen the bloody LMs!!!! How much do I want to go out and spend 3 grand? Ive suggested it to Sarah and she said I'd already used the 'they're the wheels Ive always wanted' 3 times for my M3 so Ill have to try a different tactic.
