    Soooo...I did a thing...

    Sadly, the Christmas is going to have to find a new home.
    The 2 cars are very different and have their own strengths and character and I can't truly say one is better than the other.
    They're both awesome.
    This forum and you guys have been very helpful and thank you.

    Good luck with the Z4, I'm sure it's great. I kept looking at the Z4 and decided on the Z3 basically because of the front of the car and style of the interior. In my heart I knew the Z4 was probably a better car, but I like the classic look of the Z3. What turned me off with the Z4 was the shape of the front light and the straight line running across the front because the grill is not part of the hood. I do love the back of the Z4.

    Did a thing, had a fling, did it cost you a ring?

    Congrats on the purchase but the wheels on the z3 gotta go.

    I really like the Z4 3.0si, certainly a huge upgrade from the 2.8, congrats!

    It's .02 really. Those are Beyern 22 spoke with factory BMW center caps. I like them but yes, they gotta go...along with the rest of the car. haha. Wish I had a bigger garage.

    Perhaps. I repurchased the Crossfire then the Miata.
    The biggest downside for me was the lack of a 6 speed but who knows.

    Right? Either love it or hate it. haha The styling revamp of the 2006 was enough to win me over and the performance sealed the deal. The fun-factor of the 3 is very high though.

    I looked at the e85 when I was looking for a car. I tried to like it, really did, but it seemed to get less appealing to me every time I saw the front end. I like the interior better, but the front... E89 I like OK all around, but I didn't think I could afford one.

    Gratz, though. I hope you enjoy it.

    I would keep the Z3 over the 4 any day. There is a reason the Z4 can be had cheaper than the Z3 . I can't get past all the sharp creases and the goofy side round turn signal. It doesn't go with the styling at all. But then that is my opinion and that is why we are all different. I have always loved the Z3 look and will have mine for a long time to come. Lots of people think that it is a new car. Lol. Anymore info on the car?
