Woohooo! I finally saw an...

So I was driving to work today, and it started off sorta dull. The rain's coming down pretty hard, and the highways were slow going. Yadda yadda. Anyways, I rarely get a chance to see some nice cars on the road. But I drove past a 350Z (meh.), saw an RX-7 (hmm, not bad), passed an S2000 (yawn), and then I saw a ... a... a Z4 ///M!!!

Ahhhhhh!!! After 8 months, I finally have come across another ///M (Roadster, black sapphire, female driver)! I was sooo excited. I've met a couple of members with Ms, but never have I seen one unplanned on a road.

Sweet! Thought I'd share with you guys.

Cheers!

I still have yet to see another Z4///M on the road with me. I've seen a few parked in germany, but haven't seen anything here other than the dealership.

it's true, I've only seen 4-6 different ones while out on the road

I've seen more still on dealer lots than on the road

I would have liked to. But I was on the exit ramp at the time and she was stuck behind some slow cars. Oh well... hope they join up on the forum.

I've had my M for 15 months. Still have not seen another M on the road. I have seen other Z4s, but even that is not very often. Last weekend I was in Newark, Del at University of Delaware and I saw 2 Z3MRs. One parked, black, and another in motion, Interlogos.

I've seen 3 Z4MC's unplanned (one of them three times). Should see 6 Z4MC's tomorrow

Z4MR's are plenty around Southern Ontario... Must have seen a dozen or so.

It was a beautiful day in Austin yesterday. Perfect for top down driving. I'm crusing down Mopac heading to lunch and a Interlagos Blue Z4MR merges onto Mopac beside me. He follows me for a couple of miles then peels off on the 183 exit.

After lunch the wife and I headed west to Fredericksburg via the backroads.

A little while ago I ran down to the local market and in the parking lot was a Imola Red Z4M Roadster.

BTW what kind of exhaust is on the black coupe in the picture above?

1) It fits on like it was an OEM part (perfect color match and width).
2) The eBay seller lives in WA State, so the delivery time is lightning fast.
3) It's inexpensive, but looks great.

You should set up a group buy... shipping's cheaper that way.
