Things to look out for.... "find the one you want" - genius, must remember that one!
Thanks a million.

🤣🤣🤣 make sure it's a car.
Well yeah. You might not find the exact one you want so settle for something relatively close but every time you drive it, all you will be thinking is "I wish it had red leather". Yes, you could have it replaced/resprayed but it will end up costing quite a bit, may not end up being what you pictured and any changes made to the original spec WILL drop the value of the car, no matter how expensive or good the items you have swapped in are.
I have this type of car and the N52 engine is a very reliable engine. This car is more solid compared to all the new bmw plastic nonsense out their. Nice video my brother
Thanks for your insight in to this BMW, always fun to see all perpect
Thank you for watching! Check out my channel! Have a lot of bmw content here.
Two absolutely beautiful Z’s you’ve got
HI, Thanks for reviewing this great car! Sorry this will be a little critical but first and foremost you had the good sense to buy and review an awesome car. Silly I know, but your car is not a convertible as stated (22:37). It is the e86 coupe version of the z4, which is ten times as rare. (I'm only stating in detail for others) There were only about 2000 3.0si coupes sold in the United States, plus about 2000 more z4m coupes. You cannot easily find one with exactly your desired options. I know:) Given that, it would make more sense to concentrate on what to look out for mechanically. You do this to some degree, but I think potential mechanical problem areas should be emphasized. I personally was surprised by a transmission fluid leak from a bad gasket recently. I've only had mine about 6 months. It was such a pleasurable jump from my little z3 that I really enjoyed pushing the zf auto through the gears at redline. So maybe the leak shouldn't have been a surprise:) But overall the engines are solid, as are the automatic transmissions. I've only heard good things about the manual too. So for anyone looking for a smaller sports car, and maybe considering a Cayman or Boxster, you can get a lot more for your money with this. Cheers and thanks again for the video.
Great thanks for the detailed list of potential problems, this helps a lot :)
FYI - if your Z4 Coupe has rock chips on the facia, you have a MASSIVE problem.
The facia is inside the car. It's the upright bit between you and the hood/bonnet. The bit you're talking about is "the front".
If your facia does have rock chips the chances are that the hood has been fitted directly to the rear. So not only would you be totally exposed but you will be facing the wrong way. You have two choices in how to deal with it - either drive so that the rear of your car is facing forward and you arei reverse or get really good at using your mirrors.
Use wd 40 silicone spray on your rubber seals and gaskets to prolong life !
Thanks for the information
@@TheRealToybox just sold my e88 135i n54 looking to buy a z4 n52 !
Awesome choice. We just got our hands in a n54 135i 6 speed
I'm loving this car. How much do you spend annually on it for maintenance? Has it been reliable?
The past 30k miles have been a dream. Only thing to fail on me was the water pump. Other then that it’s been flawless
@@TheRealToybox i'm in the market for one myself because of your videos. Reading this sealed the deal! Keep the videos coming 👍
what mileage do you have on your Z4? I have the exact same color combination grey with red seats but mine came in a better interior condition but messy underneath
It’s at 94k but the donor interior had 130k
How many miles does yours have?
Il looking for a bmw z4 3.0si cabriolet for 15 000€-$
Cabriolet its Nice or not ?
Yes, it’s the best sports car I’ve ever owned
@@TheRealToybox cool thank you bro
I prefer coupe
Dude you need to go to the nail shop and let them hook you up.
Na etwas Pflege würde den z4 auch mal gut tun kein Wunder das manche Sachen schon etwas fehlerhaft sind !! So ein Auto braucht Pflege kein Besitzer der nur Anklage!
Damm this car is all messed up!! Do you not take care of the car or is a z4 really this bad?
Watch my playlist, has all repair content in a how to format
Why are you using a pic of my car as your thumbnail? Not cool buddy
How about don't buy a BMW both before and after this video? Lol jk I'm here with my 535i that's gonna be fun soon
23 minutes of my life I won’t get back
Thx for watching loser
Wash car before making video maybe a good idea.
