I did a thing!

My wife and I bought a BMW Z4 M40i. This is a 2023 model with basically every option and it only had 730 miles on it. We bought it from a BMW dealer for $59k and it is CPO so we get an extra year of warranty with unlimited mileage so three more years of factory BMW warranty. My wife missed the C63 Cabriolet I used to own and I missed the power so this scratches both of those itches. Yeah, it is an automatic but the ZF 8 speed auto in these cars is really good and it is actually faster than the manual cars.

Gives me something to obsess over while I’m recovering from chemotherapy.

I spent the first few nights of ownership detailing the wheels and paint and waxing it. The paint got a clay, polish and wax. It needed it. Car was sitting outside and dealerships do a generally poor job of prepping used cars for sale. Just a wash and vacuum typically.

Nice ride!

Neat - make sure to put some proper miles on it now

YES! Enjoy it while you can.

Congrats! What a great looking car. Be sure and find some twisty roads to put it through its paces.

I’m up to 977 miles now. Almost past the break-in mileage.

I drove it up to my friend’s house in Newport Coast. Drove all the way up with the top down because it was early in the morning and overcast. It was sunny in the afternoon coming back so I had the top up most of the way as I need to limit my sun exposure. I had sunscreen on both times.
