Hallo from Munich

Even though there is no Z3M forum at bimmerpost, I hope some of you are interested in my new project.
David said I may show my Z3///M V10 up here, thanks for that David!

Just before I finished my E46 M3 GTR build, I was thinking of my next project car which should merge my love to the Z3///M and the strongest NON turbo blown engine, the ///M GmbH ever constructed.
Since I already own a S54 Z3///M Roadster, the mission was clear:

BMW Z3///M V10 S85 Coupe

The basic for my project:

As the brakes doesn't even fit my old 18" BBS LM, I got some BBS E88.
I love them!!!!

Because there was some trouble with the steering rack, Jäger Metall welded a whole new exhaust system for me. 42mm (instead of 38) long tube headers, original cat and nice silencers:
