Talking New M Roadster to add to the SoCal Family. Hello All! -Black Saphire Red Leather-

Coming from a 05 Audi S4. Choices were an Exige, Cayman and I think I was looking at a Merc for one day.
Great Experince at Bob Smith BMW in Calabasas with Larry Shapiro.

Here's a few pix:





Thanks to my buddy Kujo (located on some other bimmer boards with his 335) for taking the pix.

I will be doing the clutch mod, something to the exhaust so I can actually hear it, brake pads cause these are WAY to dusty, tinting windows and tail lights and that will probably be it.


Anyways...Hello all. See you around. :rocks::rocks::rocks:

Thanks all. Loving the car more and more.
Wish I didn't wait as long as I did.

I know i should read the manual but am I missing where there is a built in garage door opener.

Also I was under the impression that the live traffic updates came with the car. Is this not correct?

No garage door opener on the Z4Ms. Its like 700 dollar option you can get from your stealer. If you want you want a cheaper version check out th DIY thread.

I dont' have nav, so I'm not sure about the traffic updates. You can get it with the BMW assist concierge service however.

Thanks for the info.

Rosie, do you have a stock exhaust? Or have you done a mod to make your car louder? I think women that drive loud cars are very sexy!

I've done nothing to it. Its the backfire noise i like. It is similar to a Harley. So fun to make noise.

The fanatic factor, 100+ horsepower, and a different/tighter suspension.

Does the M have an LSD?

Not quite. 330 hp (M) - 255 hp (3.0si) = 75 hp... not over 100 hp.
The steering wheel, front facia, suspension, exhaust and seats are all different in the M. There are probably some other differences but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

EDIT: CF dash option, and shifter are also different.
