To kick off my retirement, my wife surprised me with a 2003 z4, with 100k miles in mint condition. I am in love with this car! Since this is my first rodeo with this type of car, I'm looking forward to learning more about owning and operating it. This site is very helpful. I have already engaged the services of a reputable mechanic who assisted in uncovering and remedying a few minor issues (brakes, front end bushings, to name a few). With that behind me, I am looking forward to driving this car for a while. Runs like a top!
