None on the NE side. I get flag downs all the time. Great looking car.

Two times I went to Houston I saw a red M40i.

Been seeing them less around here. Probably cause it's too hot.

Dang it if I didn’t see a red 40i this morning at Spring Cypress and 249. Might be a bit too hot, but I do appreciate the car’s ability to cool me sufficiently in 100 deg weather (top down, of course). Cooled seats would be better, but overall, the cooling is impressive. With top up, I can freeze the toes in 100+.

I totally agree about the AC in the Z4 being amazing. Yes, ventilated seats would have been a great option but the AC is so good that I have no complaints aside from the ones I hear from my wife that she is freezing!

A/C is quite amazing but not enough to stop the baking.

ebirotedu · 07-26-2022, 01:49 PM

Saw a black Z4 when I went out for lunch today. Twice even, I think.

Chrome grill, black top up. First time stopped at a light on Roswell Road at Hightower in Sandy Springs headed towards Roswell. Then maybe 30-40 minutes later stopped 3 cars ahead of me at a light on Warsaw Road a block south of Hennessey Porsche in Roswell headed towards Holcomb Bridge road.

Westside Guy ??
Misano - 163rd & Biscayne heading west.

ebirotedu · 07-29-2022, 02:10 PM

Oh, the anticipation! Could it be a chance meeting of two of the board's most illustrious members!?

Also, I am reminded that this morning I saw a BSM 30i parked on Azalea Drive, near the river greenway path. Looks like it could be the same car I saw the other day.

Unfortunately that was not me because if I had seen a black Z4 with your license plate I would've made a U-turn! 😂

My wife and I were sitting in Chili's yesterday and saw a red 30i drive through the parking lot, it then turned South on Slide road. First time I have seen one in the wild here. I got all excited and took a picture. This is in Lubbock TX.

Here you go. 😊

Yesterday it was a Z4 DAY!!!

First encountered a white (top up) E89, then came across a white E85 on the way home... and just a little further up a frozen gray G29. It was a great day. Only one missing was an E86 lol.

Misano blue G29 on 168 in NC @ about 1930 in the OBX near Avon.

Hmm . . . dunno about the white, but the flag is good to go.

COKen · 08-05-2022, 10:06 PM

And I was just wondering about the surfboard in Arizona!?!?

Nice looking car though!

Love that combo!

I'm on the other side of town in Chandler, but get up your way (Lake Pleasant) pretty often.

Headed to the Dealer tomorrow for 1st annual service. Hopefully may see another. It's been a year since I have.
