First order of a BMW 335i with M-Sport Pack in the U.S.
Since I have been receiving many emails inquiring about the recent announcement of the M-Sport Package being available for the 3 Series, I decided to post some orders that were placed by U.S. dealerships.
First one, it was sent in by Collin, from BMW of Pleasant Grove, who order a Black Sapphire 335i Sedan with the M Sport Package and Premium. As I mentioned in my previous article, there is no pricing available yet for the M-Sport Package, but we do expect within the next couple of weeks to hear more.
And the second order we have seen, comes from Parker Despain, who has placed a similar order, but he will pick up his car at the Performance Center in Spartanburg.
Let me remind you some of the extra options found in the M-Sport Package:
M door sills
M footrest
M gearshift lever
M Sports leather steering wheel with paddle shifters
18″ M Light Allow Star-Spoke wheels
Sport Suspension
Sport Seats
Aluminium Trim
Anthracite Headliner
Aerodynamic package
Increased top speed limiter
LeMans Blue Paint available
Thank you Collin and Parker for sharing your orders with us.

Fredrik Andersson 2004 BMW Z4 3.0i - Ready, Freddy, Go!
27.01.09
The 25-year-old from Varberg, Sweden bought the Z4 Roadster about two years ago as a stock Steel grey example. The European Z4s weren't available in white until the '06 facelift. So the car was stripped to a shell in Fredrik's garage, and the dull grey paint replaced by BMW's Alpine White III. Working as a fulltime car painter, Fredrik was able to do the job himself.
The previous owner had ordered the car with BMW's "M" body kit, which Fredrik also painted white. He retained the front spoiler and side skirts but chose to add the rear bumper from the Z4 M Roadster - neither easy to obtain, nor cheap.
The trunk spoiler was also part of the original M package, but was modified by the owner using carbon fiber to contrast the surrounding white paint.
The lightweight weave also makes an appearance with the door handles, mirrors, kidney grille, headlight and windscreen washers (all homemade), while the four silver 'n black carbon badges were supplied by Auto Talent in the US.

Can i fit a BMW Z4 M Coupe front end to my standard Z4 3.0 SI Coupe?
Apr 12, 2007 by Stash T | Posted in BMW
My car was in a a front end accident, so i thought why not put the M Coupe front end on? There is clearly a difference between the two but my area for concern is that the M Coupe's front fenders seem more flared than my standard Z4 3.0 Coupe
My guess is 'yes' it would fit. But, I would check out front end air dams and spoiler kits from Hamann and Schnitzer. Maybe that's all you need, depending how damaged your car is. Plus you could check into their side skirts, rear end aero panels, and spoiler.

How do i get the BMW Z4 M Coupe for Need for Speed Prostreet on the Wii?

Well, since you haven't received any answers yet, I'll offer another place to look. I haven't played the game, so I'm unsure.
But when I'm stuck in a game, I check www.gamefaqs.com. It's a very comprehensive site, and it hasn't let me down on finding an answer yet. Hopefully it'll help you.

What would be a better choice a 2001-02 BMW Z3 M (M roadster) or a BMW Z4 M?
Oct 24, 2008 by Z993TT | Posted in BMW
Both have the same engine S54 (315HP on the z3 and 330HP on the z4). I'm looking for a second opinion, i love the style of the z3 and its a modern classic but i like the stiffer chassis of the Z4 and the comfort level...what do you think?
PS If you know nothing of what I said please don't post.
If you like everything about the Z3 except the chassis, have you considered buying the Z3, and buying strut or anti roll bars? I know Dinan makes very good products, and AC Schnitzer also has those products for sale. I would check with BMW forums for people who felt the same way, I'm sure there are plenty of them out there!
As for comfort: Bilstien makes adjustable shocks, and you can even change the ride hieght should you want to change rims or tires. Tires also play a large role in ride comfort. I may be wrong, but I think the run flats are supposed to be some of the worst in terms of ride comfort. If you don't like the seats, the seats from a Z4 should bolt right in, or you could even buy the whole seating system from a Z4 (floor mounts included).
