Also. This is what it would look like when painted (someone did in Germany)


Yellow is my favorite color. I’d buy this in a heartbeat!

I've liked this style of wheels that your oem PB Z4 has since the f80 m4 black double spoke wheels that are similar to the z4 style and the OG M2 double spoke wheels.

The last picture is stunning. I remmeber getting so many compliments on my black z4 and then the alpine white one. Idk why but for some reason the compliments always happen when I first get the car and then suddenly stop and this has happened to me every time I bought a nice car, always the first few weeks lots of attention/compliments then it dies down. But be prepared for lots of compliments

Thank you so much. Those wheels came on the car believe it or not. They are 19" M Double-spoke jet black wheels as opposed to the 19" M V-spoke Jet Black Wheels on the configurator.

I have the same wheels; they are a selectable option.

I like those wheels too. I have the other variant of those. Not all black. However, when I go M40i, I wanna get the new LCI wheels. I like how they look, and look like they'd be alot easier to clean.

I am not a big fan of yellow cars because they remind me of a NYC taxi but in this case I have to admit that this shade of yellow looks great on the Z4!

Ha. Thanks to Uber in a few years no one will even know what a taxi looks like. I see so few of them in Chicago anymore, when they used to be everywhere.

Order is in!

Skyscraper Grey over Magma for me. Pretty much all options but the standard black roof.

April 2023 Build.

Roll on Summer

Just a quick note, the Moonlight top looks great with SSG, plus it doesn’t show the wrinkles as much. I wasn’t a fan before. Anyway, good taste in colors.

Over a year ago when I first considered purchasing a Z4 I wasn't sure about the Moonlight top, but now I am convinced it is the way to go on most colors.

SSG/ Magna Red along with the Shadowline trim, black wheels, red calipers and the Moonlight top is an amazing combination!

I agree. I wasn’t sure about the moonlight top. Now I am. I got mine with Portimao blue, moonlight top, and the new 779 v-spoke wheels. Can’t wait to get it!

Thank you very interesting. I think I do like the contrast the black roof will bring and I’m keeping cerium trim and the cars grey too off.
I do agree the silver fabric is lovely.
