M3_Power 636 Report post Posted September 14, 2006 I'll be at the McMillan one on the 21st. Have spoken to a few techs at McMillan who have driven the new 335 and Z4 M Coupe ... Their responses: 335 - phenomenal car - extremely smooth and torquey. Z4 M Coupe - Down right scary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jazzbass 1 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 (edited) FAR OUT!!! The new Z4 Coupe - WOW!!! Go see it, it is one very, very cool Coupe!! This one was in black and even though I don't like black cars, it was tres smart!! The 335i Coupe is a 3 litre twin turbo model and is delightful. Only a 4 seater of course, but no-one buys a Coupe to fit a family in... 325 Coupe = $97k 335 Coupe = $120k I didn't catch the Z4 Coupe price. Must test drive..... I was sitting in the 335 with a lady who bought one on the spot. She'd tried the M3, but didn't like it - too harsh ride and in her words - "Too blokey". She promised me she'll drive the 335 like its supposed to be driven though - LOL Edited September 20, 2006 by Jazzbass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*RJ* 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 I had a silver 325 tail gating me up the motorway on Tuesday, I could tell what it was until it went past me - nice looking car. The driver was even better!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 Hey Jazzbass, how are the previews like? My friend had an invitation to the Team Mcmillan one and was gonna bring me along, but he said that it was more of a wining and socialising session rather than seeing the cars. Is it true or is it more about the cars than anything, which I would expect to be so? Btw the Z4 Coupe = MZ4? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alex 0 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 I was at the JC one tonight, very impressed with the Z4 M, such a nice car, impressed with the 335i, but im still shakey on the e90 design.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazzbass 1 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 Yuen, it was about 90 minutes of free booze and food, before they unveiled the cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jazzbass 1 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 On the way home I had some young brave scream to a halt beside me at the lights. When they flipped to green he was all smoke and squeal from the tyres. Meanwhile, I'd flipped into steptronic, traction control on and planted boot. I was clear across the intersection before he started moving forward. The idiot didn't understand the first concept of dragging the lights- lose traction = lose the race.
