Some updated pictures of the Great White Shark
Here are some updated pictures of my car.... the only real changes are the removal or some decals and the addition of a red time attack strips on the wheels.

What are your driving impressions of this car, and did you consider other makes or models?
Just curious...I'm a fan of the coupes.

Best color combo available. I am really feeling it. Nice work. It is a shame they wont be making that car after this year. I have sold a few and think this is one of the most underrated cars on the road. I have been selling BMW for over 4 years at the M Coupe has a special place in my heart. Way to keep it clean.

My Gf just picked one of these up, Black Saphire/Imola Red sweet car, we've been shopping for exhausts, How do you like ur SS exhaust, had one on my M3 and loved it wondered how it sounded on the Z4M, stock vs stock the Z4M sounds much better than the M3 did, I heard SS stopped making the Race exhaust for the Z4M and now have a "Power Loop" muffler for $2200 which is a little much to me, but I would like to hear your thoughts!!

Thanks Scotty..... looks like you room mate is going to be rocking a M Coupe so enough if everything goes to plan!
Thank you! I am really taking it slow with this car and trying to think each mod out instead of just throwing money at the car. After a year of tracking I think the next upgrade is going to have to be some serious suspension, software and some brake up grades.
I LOVE this car soo much... It excites me like no other car I have driven. It just so raw.... all the new M cars to me are becoming less and less ///M and more and more AMG to me. This to me is the last of the back to the basic M cars. In fact after my friend took one ride with me on the track he sold his car and is now in the hunt for an M Coupe. From the factory they are flawed in that the tires are garbage and the alignment is set up for massive understeer. Fix those two issues and it makes for a insane little track machine. I will never sell this car!!!!
The other makes and models I looked at were a 996 Carrera, Cayman S, Exige, and an e46 M3 comp package. I loved the exige but it was jsut way to small for me....
I am soooooo glad they ended production now.... I wanted them to end it after 07! The less they make the more rare it makes my car.... I have still only seen a couple in person besides mine. In fact I see way more F430's then I do M Coupes. You are right in that it is very underrated. It never really lit up the magazines like it should have. Mostly I think it is because BMW put those crap tires on there versus the cayman which came with those ps2's. I love porsche and it will be the next car to be parked in the garage next to the M Coupe but the Cayman to me was just to polished not raw enough for me. As with you this car has a place in my heart to! Thanks for the nice comments!
I love the sound! It is louder but if you don't mind that then it is the way to go. These car I felt for all their back to the basic's rawness lacked the sound to go along with it. For what I understand they didn't actually stop making the race exhaust they just changed the name on it. BMP and leatherZ.com are both retailers of the exhaust and would be able to give you better information then me. I have heard the powerloop in person and it jsut really didn't do anything for me.... if you want it that quite then you might as well just leave the stock exhaust on there. I am going to be back in Jersey next week and if you would like to hear it in person I am sure we could meet up. In fact I should be in the city at my buddies place some time towards the end of week.
Thanks you for the comments Arling... it means something coming from one of the modding gods out west.
