Nice...Helluva lot better lookin as a coupe than a roadster IMHO....
Talkin of beamers got a shot in a 645CI last week....sounded great, but otherwise not a very inspiring drive.

Sub-zero most definitely. Bit of a fan of Bee-Emms. I had 2 x 330i's one after the other and they were great car's. Not much slower than an M3 but more civilised with family in tow. Have a mate that's just taken delivery of the 3.0si version but the M really is the business.

The new 335i petrol/turbo and 335D will be quality bits of kit as well.

New one looks too bland compared to the old one. I saw a black Z4M coupe parked up last week in town, and it didnt do much for me. Maybe it`ll grow.

It also looks a bit similar to the Z4 Coupe, cool thing about the Z3M coop was that they never sold the 2.8 coupe here.

It is "nice" bit like the S2 Exige following the S1, niche market waters tested and now going on the second model with a bigger push.

Still monitoring residuals on...

Sanjoy, residuals seem pretty strong, but definately hit earlier this year with BMW`s mental £1800 a year warranty price rise. No problems so far though out of warranty.

Dads is Estoril with blue / black leather. It shifts (esp above 80).

Lovely and agree with Sanjoy on the old coupe. There is a "ghost rider" video knocking around (I know road racing is wrong but it makes me smile) where he is racing some guy that has an old M Coupe sideways seemingly perpetually.

The new one definitely reminds me of something though. Is it one of the old TVR hardtops from the late 70s/early 80s? Or a Marcos. Definitely something British.

Bear in mind chaps that Paul's pics have CSL type wheels which do wonders for the looks - the standard 18s look a bit puny IMHO :roll:

What was the chat with the CSL cup tyres again ? You needed a race license or some other marketing pash ?
