    Man is having a laugh and I love those Z4s.
    I'd have a Z4M in my euromillions garage all day long but you couldn't convince me to buy a 2.2 auto for any money.

    I hate it when sellers conveniently forget to include the tax bracket on thier ads.

    Writing in all caps deserves a slap.
    10 grand would get you a much nicer car than that.

    Was looking at a nice 04 z425i manual yesterday. 3k euro or so.

    I can't think of any scenario where an old model S Class petrol is worth €7k in this day and age, or have I got it wrong? You'd surely be into a very nice 07+ model for this money

    Mileage is a little high but could mean alot of the post 100k niggles are sorted. They'd be a lovely yolk for the summer.

    The Z4 are really cool looking cars... Very James Bond in my opinion. I would love one but a convertible is not for me. I would have to put a hard top on it, but they never fit properly and have all sorts of air leaks, wind noise. I had an MX5 years ago with a hard top and it drove me mad with wind noise, I ended up sealing all around the hardtop with a bathroom silicone sealent !.... I never once drove it with the roof off.

    Art is art.
    Much more handsome than the open top and will be much more desirable in a few years.

    Art is subjective
    Looks absolutely nothing like an E type.
    That’s like saying a 3 series is a copy of a Cortina because they’re both saloons.

    I didn't actually know there was a Z4 coupe, first time I have seen one. I don't like the look of the rear of it, not a great looking coupe imo. I wouldn't buy it.

    Think its a smashing looking car. Inside and outside, especially if you consider times it was built in. Some really nice looking examples on autotrader.co.uk

    If you say no to this I think its a time to take up chess :)

    Shhot me down in flames if ye will, but the Z4 Coupe always reminded me of the Triumph GT6 Coupe.

    ebay835874.jpg

    Which I like and I like the Z4 Coupe too. I actually prefer it to the roadster TBH. Though I think the Triumph rear quarter windows are better realised as they follow the shape of the haunches. They look more awkward on the Beemer IMHO.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    The gold wheels make me feel sick.

    This space cadet. Yeah its a coupe, yeah its rare enough, but 5k, absolutely not, if it was listed for 500 I'd still haggle.

    I'm pretty sure that car is a repeat offender in this thread.

    I'm also pretty sure the first time I saw it posted it was 400.

    You’d get a new one in and VRTd for around €20k

    Packs add cost obv, same as anything, but..

    How else is he going to get his €3800 back in fairness, someone has to foot the bill......

    I like the tyre lettering coloured white


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,308 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    Does that engine even have VTEC? I'm guessing it does not but I could be wrong. For a heavy car like that you would want the H22 lump from a prelude.

    SOHC, somewhere around 150bhp when new... so wouldn't pull your socks down at this stage.
