The Z4M is and was one of the last true //M cars that was produced by our beloved BMW. It's a visceral and riveting experience driving a car that has the whole pack-a-punch of an S54 in such a tight and well balanced chassis. There is no argument that the driving experience of the vehicle punches above it's metaphorical \"weight class\"\n\n2. You are bidding on an Alpine White example. Let's talk about this briefly because I would hate for it to be glazed over. I would argue that Alpine White has broadly been one of the most respected and esteemed colors on BMW's from the 90's up until the end of the e9x era, and SPECIFICALLY on //M cars. Aside from that point is the point that there were only 148 examples of the Z4M Coupe produced in Alpine White. This is no gimmicky number, this is not the production number of 07' Alpine White Z4MC's. 148 examples in Alpine White across all years of production - and furthermore only 41 ever produced on the ever desirable \"White on Black\". \n\nAs an honorable mention to the above 2 points is that this car is still in excellent shape. There is no weird odd sounds, no odd shakes or weird quirks when driving it, and it has a tremendous amount of life left to give. \n\nHappy bidding all - I will circle back with the aforementioned photo requests from previous commenters and I look forward to answering any more questions you guys may have.", "likes": 3, "timestamp": 1690157158, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 12005220, "authorName": "lanoipat", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/lanoipat/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "About the signature , in 2016 ,the car was for sale in Maryland with the mention \n\"Hood has been personally signed by Larry Koch BMW's M division manager\"\nGLWS!", "likes": 2, "timestamp": 1690215357, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 12007982, "authorName": "VampyresCars (The Seller)", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/vampyrescars/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@laniopat - we\u2019ve been so curious this whole time but couldn\u2019t put our finger on who\u2019s signature it was!\r\n\r\nKnowing now that there\u2019s a chance this is Larry\u2019s signature has elevated the cool factor tremendously.\r\n\r\nThanks so much for commenting in!", "likes": 0, "timestamp": 1690226306, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 12010860, "authorName": "OldBiker650", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/oldbiker650/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "I am a big fan of gray cars... bought one of these in Space Gray.
