Finally got my z4
-
Hello, I just recently bought a 2007 Z4M which is a car I've always wanted to own one day, and I absolutely love it so far. By doing some quick research, as this is my first BMW, I can already tell it's not going to be cheap to maintain and modify as I expected.. I'm close to 50k miles and I'm not sure how the previous owner treated it as far as maintenance and stuff so I'm looking to learn much as possible about these car to restore it back as close to 100% as possible and get it ready for some track time!! Can't wait to go crusing this summer!!!

Omg I got lucky with this one found a gem.. I did some track time in my previous car (2016 Subaru WRX) but this is my first RWD and need a lot of practice before I get comfortable turning off traction control lol

Welcome, neighbor! New Berlin here.
The Z4 is an awesome car! We will have some drives and meets going on this year and I hope you can join us
Whatever added maintenance costs may exist from bmw ownership should be offset by how much joy you get from driving the car.
If I see you around, I will honk/wave/pit maneuver you

Hey I was wondering would I get a notification if there's a post about a meet that's happening? Or is that something I have to keep an eye out for?

Welcome!
Keep an eye on the "Local Events" subforum, usually anything we plan/do is posted there.
If you're looking to get a feel for RWD without jumping right to the track, a number of us participate in local auto-x events. Its a much safer way to push your car's limits, plus it's tons of fun

There is an event calendar but it hasn’t been maintained as diligently as it once was. The meets and drives get posted in the Local Scene forum and mainly just have to be on the lookout. Traditionally there is the Badger Bimmers E30 picnic at Frame Park in Waukesha every May, usually the 3rd Saturday.
There is always an “Autumnal Gathering” and usually 1 or 2 other official meets/drives. A handful of folks do track days and autocross together and sometimes there is a trip to Veloce for some karting.

Awesome! Well i'm sure the Z4M will be worlds different than the WRX! Where have you done track time?
-
2016 WRX, thats pretty new, so you must have gotten sick of it pretty quickly, yeah?
Yeah in less the 2 years I put in 78k miles and spent over $15k in mods.. Had enough fun with it, can't make more power without sacrificing reliability in those cars so I decided to go another route.. Was a fun car though.
