Here's a post I did on a BMW board some time ago, but it is still accurate, at least for BMW. This did work for me, and as the then current market price of my car was significantly below the...

No, it was offered in rear wheel drive only, as a proper 2 seat sports should be.

And the Z4M was discontinued mid-2008.

So you subscribe to the theory that the difference between a BMW driver and a porcupine is that with the porcupine the prick is on the outside. (insert Porsche for BMW if you want)

While the Z4M is a BMW it is unlike any other BMW I have ever been in. You either love the looks or can't stand them, and as the previous...

They stopped making the Z4M in both coupe and roadster in mid-08, but you did give me the idea to see if there are any of those left over. Very slim chance, but who knows?

I won't pay $35,000, but I might pay $29,000. My reliability has been excellent so far, but I would still be buying a 3 year old used car, even if it is my used car.

We agree on all points. The Z4MC is a rougher ride that the 370Z, and by an amount that surprised me. Also, because of the extreme rear seat placement, all of your observations there are dead on. ...

I fully agree that the leases were based on inflated residuals to make the leases attractive. BMWFS (FS=Financial Services) is an odd duck. They will no longer negotiate the buy back price, but you...

It was actually a very good decision as the residual on the lease is much higher than the true depreciated cost at which I can purchase the car. BMWFS will be absorbing the bulk of the depreciation...

I went to the Cleveland auto show this past Sunday. The Cleveland show has always been a big one as this area is second to Detroit in automotive businesses. The turn out was huge, with most marques...

Because after I made my initial post I saw I had an e-mail asking me to do an introduction of myself in this section.

Sorry for the doubling up.
