  • New Z3M Coupe owner.

    Hi, well I purchased a 2000 Z3M Coupe in Estoril blue the other week, I can't believe how these drive, handle and stop!
    I'm changing the suspension, tyres, gearbox mounts and putting a new clutch in as I'm keeping it forever, and after 15 years they will need up dating.
    Wheels need refurbishing and I'm going to give the car a machine polish next week.
    I've been watching this forum for a while now and it's great to see like minded people who enthuse over their cars.
    I will be asking some questions so please bear with me.
    Regards Pete.

            Thanks, I adore my coupe, was toying with an RS4, BMW M3 V8 or a 997 Carerra 2S,.
            There's been people passing my house and asked what it was as they aint seen one on the road, that seals the deal for me.
            Great forum good crack I'll be asking questions so bear with me.

                Welcome to the club!!

                I see you are located in Durham area just up the road from me on Teesside. Martin - mnbrennan - lives in the Durham area, I sure he'll pass a comment on your good choice when he gets back from the Silverstone Classic and see your post.
                Another one to add to the Tees - Wear - Tyne enclave!
