    Bought a 2006 Z4 3.0i. What do I need to know?

    I've been browsing this forum for quite some time, and recently pulled the trigger on a 2006 Z4 3.0i with manual transmission. I haven't actually seen it in person yet (I found a listing in my father-in-law's neighborhood in Florida, and he's been my eyes and ears so far), but it'll be in my garage a week from tomorrow.

    The car has just over 20K miles, and seems to be in great condition. Again, I've been browsing the forums for awhile, but I've wondered if there's a "cheat sheet" of sorts for new owners. Happy to be a member here!

    I used VIN decoder, and here's the equipment in my car:

    Welcome! Looks like a pretty standard options list there, which would make sense since I think the 3.0 was the "lower" engine in that year. Any pictures? Always lovely seeing low mile cars like that!

    How could I forget? These are the pics from the seller's Craigslist post. Once the car gets here (a week from today), I'll be sure to post some new ones.

    Change spark plugs and all fluids. Check to make sure drain plugs for top are clear.
    Other than that drive it and see qhat pops up. Looks nice and congrats!
