I searched long and hard for a used Z4 that had both mechanical stability, as well as cosmetic well being (let's face it, she has to be pretty). This is the result of literally 4 months of finding the "right" fit for a car I had lusted for since it's release in '03.

Texas Driven vehicle from 2004-2013, she moved to WI in November of 2013, stored in winter never seen WI snow or salt and barely any rain.

BEAUTIFUL BODY, PAINT HAS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL LUSTER, ZERO DULL SPOTS 9/10

Interior is gorgeous, some aging can be seen via the color of a few the plastic pieces (only the door handles, but it is an '04 after all). In all I would give the interior a 8.5/10.

The only reason I'm selling it is because with two young kids, my wife and I were not getting away enough to justify keeping it.

Options on the BMW Z4 Include:

- Convenience Package (Auto Dimming Interior & Exterior Mirrors, Storage Package, Automatic Climate Control)

- Premium Package (Fully Automatic Power Soft-Top, Power Seats w/ Driver Memory)

- Sports Package (18" Alloy Wheels, Sport Suspension, Sport Button for optional handling experience)

- Heated Front Seats

- Rain Sensor for Windshield Wipers

- Xenon Headlights with Automatic Leveling

- Power Windows, Power Locks, Heated Dual-Power Mirrors, Heated Washer Jets, Cruise Control

- Premium Sound System with DSP (has an internal CD player) with 10 Speakers.

The vehicle is up to date with its maintenance with BMW. It's been quite trouble-free over the years.

ADDITIONAL INFO.

I had a BMW dealer do a pre-purchase inspection in November
-new plugs and coils
-completely new fluids (coolant, transmission, oil, wiper, blinker ;)
-new windshield (had a crack from a rock, nothing more)
-fresh alignment
-new performance tires with <2k miles. (Sumitomo HTR Z III, all the guys (most) on the bimmer forums love these and claim about 20k life if driven hard, 25-27k if just cruising)
-new thermostat

Please take a look at the photographs. The car is in fabulous shape! It has not seen Wisconsin winters (was kept covered in a garage). You can't possibly find anything this nice & this well equipped within this price range. Even though it's a 2004 model, it has the mileage and wear & tear of a vehicle that's only 5 years old.

Bertone goes bust

Mon, Mar 17 2014

The famous Italian coachbuilder and designer Bertone may be on its deathbed. The company that penned the beautiful shape of the Lamborghini Miura has been facing financial hardships for months, and Autocar is reporting that the Turin, Italy firm has just declared bankruptcy. The last we heard from Bertone, it was showing the Jet 2+2 station wagon based on an Aston Martin Rapide at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. The Turin-based carrozzeria became famous for its wild designs like the BMW Spicup concept, Lancia Stratos and the initial shape of the Lamborghini Countach. In recent years, it had been limited to creating mostly one-off vehicles. The company has slowly been shrinking recently. It sold its small factory to Fiat a few years go and let go of 165 employees and 10 interns in December. Bertone has been shopping itself in hopes of finding a new owner. According to PistonHeads, even with the money problems, the business generated 20-million euros ($27.9 million) in revenue in 2013 and has been working on projects in China. A Turkish firm was rumored to be interested in buying it for just $2.7 million, and GT Spirit claims that there are also seven Italian companies potentially interested in purchasing it. Bertone has a long and proud automotive history, and it wouldn't be surprising if it were bought just for the value of the brand – perhaps we haven't seen the last of its stylized B logo.

Tesla in talks with BMW about batteries, charging collaborations

Wed, Nov 26 2014

With Toyota and Daimler no longer holding Tesla shares, the electric vehicle company might be looking for a new partner – possibly a Bavarian one. In a new interview with Germany's Der Spiegel, CEO Elon Musk confirmed that he has had talks with BMW execs about future collaboration. "We are talking about whether we can collaborate in battery technology or charging stations," Musk said in the interview, according to Reuters. However, a Tesla spokesperson has tempered things by saying no formal agreements are in place at the moment. In the same interview, Musk reportedly praised BMW's use of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic in its i sub-brand offerings, and said he would like to have a battery factory in Germany in the next five or six years. The possibility of technological cooperation between Tesla and BMW has been a hot topic this year. In June, Musk reportedly met with BMW execs, and the two companies were also rumored to have met with Nissan to discuss charging technology. When Daimler sold off its shares, there was talk of it opening the way for possible collaboration between the two automakers, as well.

BMW pitting self-drifting car against drift champion

Mon, Mar 9 2015

The BMW M235i certainly makes a capable drift machine. Last year, the Bavarian brand had five of them with the tail out in unison in South Africa for the Driftmob. The coupe even proved that it could slide without a driver's intervention. For the latest sideways stunt, the company wanted to know which was the better drifter: an autonomous car or a human. This clip is just the trailer for BMW's entire drift challenge video, and it seemingly gives away the ending of the whole thing. We're sure, though, that there must be something more to the stunt than what's on display here. The driverless Audi TTS from Stanford University was reportedly slightly faster than an amateur racer around Thunderhill Raceway Park recently, and BMW has also been working at this problem for years with things like its Track Trainer. Regardless of how you feel about driverless cars, it's amazing how quickly autonomous tech is progressing – even on the track.
