New owner E92 M3 to Z
 
Traded in my E92 M3 in today on a PG 09 6-sp Touring/Sport/Nav Z. The Z has the gray leather and I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the interior is.

The Z was just traded in on a Maxima and only had 833 miles on it. I was looking to get into something a little less pricey to move up the property ladder. I actually stopped at the dealer to look at a frontier and when I started looking at the Z's I said in passing that if I were to get one I'd want a PG with sport and nav. The sales lady's eyes lit up and said she was working on a trade for that exact car and that if she could find the exact Maxima that the guy wanted that they should be getting the Z in a couple days. She called me on Wednesday, we got the deal worked out and I took delivery today. The only bad thing was the car already had the front plate bracket mounted.

My M3 only had 8066 miles when I dropped her off this afternoon, I was a little sad but I got a great car and the deal was solid.

My wife has an Infiniti EX35 and it has been flawless. Her good luck with that car is what made me consider the Z. The Z and the EX actually appear to share quite a few parts.

I don't have any good pics of the Z but yall all know what they look like.

Always had Japanese cars up until my last. I came from an E46 M3.

Welcome. :tiphat:

Any problems with the BMW? I'm curious since you said your wife's Nissan was "flawless". I've owned many American cars, German cars and Japanese cars over the years, and my experience has been that the Japanese cars are much less prone to things breaking.

to buy a new house and do it on a 15 year note

the m3 was great but it did have some nit picky problem that kept it in the shop. I'll say that during the time I put 8000 miles on the M I put 3000 miles on BMW loaner cars.

Can't blame you one bit for moving up the property ladder and on a short note. I think you'll be very happy with the Z.

tbonesteak 05-01-2010 07:38 PM

you'll love the z. i have a few buddies with the e92m3 and they were shockingly surprised after driving my z. I came from an mkiv supra and an s2000, which are both amazingly engineered cars and the z satisfies me perfectly fine. welcome aboard!

Welcome and man that was a beautiful M3 but the Z is an amazing car
